Global Airlines has started accepting bookings for its first flights operating between the United Kingdom and New York City. The airline's initial routes include Glasgow and Manchester airports as departure points, with flights landing at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. Ticket prices range from approximately $373 in economy class to $4,647 in first class.
Despite this development, Global Airlines is yet to secure its air operator’s certificate (AOC). For now, the flights will be managed by Hi Fly, a company based in Portugal.
On April 15, Global Airlines announced that passengers can now book their seats for flights operating from Glasgow Airport and Manchester Airport to New York. The scheduled flights from Glasgow to New York will depart on May 15 at 11:00 and will land at 13:00, with the return leg leaving New York at 08:00 and arriving in Glasgow at 19:15. Meanwhile, flights from Manchester are set to fly on May 21 at 12:25, with the return flight departing New York on May 25 at 08:55 and landing in Manchester at 20:40.
