Global Airlines A380 Inaugural! [Glasgow-JFK]

May 19, 2025

Join us on the first ever Global Airlines A380 flight with paying passengers on the Glasgow–New York JFK route. Many have asked over the past few years if this airline is just one big scam, while others have raised serious questions about whether it can succeed. But here we are, keeping an open mind, flying transatlantic on this brand new A380 airline. If nothing else it’s a very exciting day!
