British startup Global Airlines has received its first aircraft
British startup Global Airlines has announced that it has taken delivery of its first aircraft, an Airbus A380, which was previously operated by China Southern.
Global Airlines, which has outlined plans to start operations this spring, has fully acquired the MSN 120 from Jet Midwest, a used aircraft company, Travel Weekly reports.
The Maltese-registered 9H-GLOBL is expected to leave California's Mojave Airport in the coming weeks, with its next destination to be "announced in due course".
According to Global Airlines, the aircraft, which last flew in December 2022, has been maintained and updated over the past year by Hi Fly and Business Class Aircraft (BCA), and tests have shown it to be in "very good condition".
Hi Fly is expected to operate the first ferry flight from the United States.
