New Haven Discount Airline Needs Flight Attendant for Deportation Trips Both Domestic and Foreign: Snacks Optional

Coffee, tea, or deportation?

New Haven, Connecticut’s discount airline has posted a Jobs ad for a Flight Attendant.

Just so the applicants know, they won’t be serving the usual customers on runs to New England or Florida.

Avelo — owned by Andrew Levy — has joined a program with the Department of Homeland Security. They’re going to the airline of choice for government deportations — legal or otherwise — to foreign and domestic locations.

It’s unclear if the deportees will be in shackles. That would make paying for inflight snacks rather difficult.

So if it’s hard to find a seat on Avelo, ask your travel agent if you can hitch a ride to El Salvador on one of these flights!

The ad on the Avelo site reads:

Come join our growing team! We are seeking energetic, highly motivated Flight Attendants who wish to join a committed group of safety and service professionals at Avelo Airlines.
This opportunity is for a charter program for the Department of Homeland Security. Flights will be both domestic and international trips to support DHS’s deportation efforts.

To continue providing news that takes a fresh look at what's going on in movies, music, theater, etc, advertising is our basis. Reader donations would be greatly appreciated, too. They are just another facet of keeping fact based journalism alive.
