### 2/5 — Poor website

*2026-09-04, version 2.2.6*

I have been an Avelo plus member for several years now and your website never works for me correctly. I constantly get bumped out

### 2/5 — Needs a big upgrade

*2026-08-29, version 2.2.6*

Seriously, this app is terrible. Sometimes it works but most times it doesn’t. Trying to upgrade seats, the app turns to a white screen. Trying to book flights after entering a promo code, locks up.

### 1/5 — Bad business practices

*2026-08-20, version 2.2.6*

Canceled my flight and then tried to not refund me all my money never use this air line they should be shut down never mind all in inconvenience this company has caused for me

### 2/5 — Seats + apple wallet

*2026-08-19, version 2.2.6*

New update doesn’t let me change my seat on the app (screen goes completely black) + now there isn’t an option for me to save my boarding pass to Apple wallet which I was able to do before. Not thrilled

### 1/5 — Credits

*2026-08-18, version 2.2.6*

I was not provided the opportunity to use my credits for this reservation as  a Avelo Plus Member.

### 4/5 — Good service overall

*2026-08-16, version 2.2.6*

Good service overall, offering convenient travel options across the country and internationally. Their flights always depart on time, which is a major plus. However, customer service is a major drawback.

It is extremely difficult to reach a representative by phone due to very long wait times, making support feel almost unavailable. If an issue cannot be solved through the app or website, you are largely on your own.

I have been trying to update something as simple as my email address but have been unable to reach an agent. Calling support often results in queues of over 200 people.

I would gladly update this review if customer service improves. The service itself is excellent; the support experience needs significant improvement.

### 1/5 — Hot Garbage

*2026-08-14, version 2.2.6*

Quite possibly the worst app on my phone.

### 1/5 — Bad app functionality

*2026-08-13, version 2.2.6*

The app is terrible it sometimes crashes and sometimes doesn’t go through. Customer service is extremely nice but very hard to reach.

### 1/5 — Pop up charges

*2026-08-11, version 2.2.5*

You’ll pay with your card and then they’ll change the price last minute. Happened for 3 hours. Customer service guy was very nice and helpful but took 30 minutes to get on the phone

### 2/5 — Awful app

*2026-08-09, version 2.2.5*

Terrible app. Hate to use it. VERY slow and just spins and spins to the point where you can’t even complete your booking or check in!

### 2/5 — Please do better

*2026-08-09, version 2.2.5*

You cannot get a live rep,  asked for a call back never received.  Called back waited over 4 hours then call dropped.  The app didn’t tell me if I can update my luggage, in one point when I checked in it didn’t show me that I had any luggage added, went to add, I made a mistake couldn’t cancel to 0 luggage.  I waited to the following day then I saw I had selected an over head and wanted to change to check in, not sure how to do that.   On my app I had ended up buying 2 reservations.  I realized it the day before my flight and I couldn’t get through to CS.

### 1/5 — Muy mala atención

*2026-08-07, version 2.2.5*

He estado llamando desde hace 8 días a la Avelo y dicen que me devuelven la llamada pero nunca lo hacen, he estado alrededor de 3 horas en el teléfono y nunca nadie responde como son una empresa tan grande nunca tienen tiempo para contestar las inquietudes de los clientes además ofrecen cosas que no son reales como la membresía Avelo plus es un robo

### 1/5 — Customer service terrible  software glitches

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.5*

Please call me.  I lost booking  prices because of ur software errors   Customer service had me on hold 4hours For 3 days each.  One rep hung up on me and refuse to give me a manger.   I have a lot to
Say and screen shots to show what was done 
To

### 2/5 — No boarding passes

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.5*

What’s the point of this app if you can’t access your boarding pass while in line to board? Apparently you need to grab it quick during online check in but even that’s not intuitive and is often missed. After that you are SOL. You will need to go to the gate counter and request a hard copy. Besides that the app is clunky, slow and often needs refreshing to find anything. Worst app in the airline industry by far.

### 1/5 — Slow

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.5*

Have to reload several times when trying to make flight arrangements as app is very slow and frequently gets stuck.

### 1/5 — Worst airline app i’ve ever used

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.5*

It’s so slow and unreliable. Yall need to fix this asap

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2026-08-04, version 2.2.5*

Glitches from the very first moment using the app! First it “couldn’t find my reservation” after I selected the saved reservation. Twice I tried to view and possibly change my seats, and the screen just goes black!

### 1/5 — Boarding Pass Glitch

*2026-09-06, version 2.2.6*

Twice now I have been unable to access my boarding passes using the app….making it necessary to get a paper copy from a gate agent at the airport. Waste of time and paper.

### 1/5 — Nightmare changing flight

*2026-09-04, version 2.2.6*

Nothing is what they claim, hours wasted on hold, no call back!  Prices went up while waiting!

### 1/5 — App still stinks

*2026-08-31, version 2.2.6*

I still love Avelo. Perfect for trips where u just get up and go.

But their app and website still are horrible. Slowest app I’ve ever used in my life and nothing ever loads. I use the website from now on but even that thing is slow.

### 1/5 — DON'T FLY AVELO

*2026-08-28, version 2.2.6*

I can't stress this enough. I've flown twice and both times there were massive delays. Only fly if you have no other option.

### 1/5 — Booking a flight

*2026-08-26, version 2.2.6*

The system is very slow, login don’t take and make you start over. Very confusing

### 1/5 — Poor app experience

*2026-08-23, version 2.2.6*

Slow flight
App. Always crashes when you retrieve boarding pass. And then no way to retrieve again easily

### 1/5 — App payment glitches & missing info

*2026-08-23*

One of my issues is that I don’t like that I can’t view the invoice for my flight after payment. They don’t let you look at what you’ve paid for until you go to get your boarding pass on the day. Currently, I’m experiencing two days of error messages during the payment process. I was unable to add an additional credit card to use that different card. First you told me I had to pay a certain amount to change my flight. It built a card. Payment failed supposedly so on the next login it gave me a different price which was over $100 less. I paid that finally. Now it says I have a six dollar balance due but when I click to pay, it shows my balance is zero the app says you’ll get an email confirmation of purchasing a flight, but this does not occur. It says I have a balance due and when I click to pay, it says it is zero. The same things are happening on the website. When you go to get your boarding pass, it has a different boarding group then what appears in the Apple wallet. With my Velo flex plan I get priority boarding, but that doesn’t appear on the ticket! Lastly, when you call them on the phone to reach a human about these problems, you have to pay a $25 service fee to speak to a human! We should be able to see detailed purchases and payments that we made on the website and in the app, but it has been this way for over two years that I have been flying with them.

### 1/5 — App won’t work

*2026-08-22, version 2.2.6*

I’ve had significant issues with the app. Couldn’t get the payment to go through several times finally got it to go through then when I needed to make a change-a triple charged me-still working through that now I’m trying to cancel which I bought flex and it will not allow me to cancel

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2026-08-21, version 2.2.6*

Please invest a little bit more money into this app. It makes customers very frustrated.

### 1/5 — Problems with app

*2026-08-21, version 2.2.6*

I tried several times to use my Avelo Cash and kept getting “an unexpected error occurred” 
And no “real” person available to help

### 5/5 — Easy way to Fly

*2026-06-26, version 2.2.2*

Never a problem!

### 5/5 — Nickel & Diming

*2026-06-09, version 2.2.0*

I love the ability to fly out of my local airport to the destinations I need but I have to say that I feel I’m getting Nickel and Dimed to death more and more for a “No Frills Airline”.  Avelo…. Do better!
