Refreshingly cruel
Avelo Airlines wants you to think they’re “refreshingly simple.” What they don’t put on the billboards and “hello, avelo” marketing posters: they’re the first commercial airline in the U.S. to sign a deportation charter contract with ICE. Unmarked, secretive flights. No guarantee of due process. Public money subsidizing mass deportations.
The clock is ticking on deportation profiteers
Every day this contract stands, Avelo cashes in on tearing families apart — and every day it runs, deportation profiteering becomes more normalized. If they get away with it, other airlines will follow. Our leverage? Hitting them on every front — at their airports, in the states and cities bankrolling them, and on the campuses that partner with them — until doing ICE’s dirty work costs too much to continue.
Take the Ground Avelo Pledge
I pledge not to fly Avelo Airlines — or any airline that profits from ICE deportation flights. Until Avelo ends its contract with ICE, I’ll work in my community to cut their subsidies, end their partnerships, and pressure their leadership to make sure no company can profit from tearing families apart without consequence.
