About
Global Crossing Airlines (publicly traded on the TSX-V as JET and the) doing business initially as Global X in the United States, will be an affiliated group of airlines operating both narrow and widebody aircraft in mature and emerging growth markets around the world, utilizing the efficiencies of an Airbus A320/330 fleet, and centralized purchasing, planning and management. The Global family will incorporate all that has been learned about charter, low cost scheduled and long haul low fare operations. Global X is the first airline, now being certified in the US as a part 121 domestic and flag carrier airline using the Airbus A320. Global X will operate wet lease and acmi flights for airlines and charter operations for tour operators, professional and college teams and other groups requiring a 150 seat aircraft capable of flying up to six hours. Global X plans to grow to a fleet of ten (10) to fifteen (15) A320 aircraft and will then add widebody A330 aircraft to our FAA certificate, to provide dual capability and optionality to our clients in long range charter and acmi/wet lease operations. Global X is led by a strong and highly experienced 119 team – the five (5) mandated positions of Director of Operations, Maintenance, Quality and Safety and the Chief Pilot have over 150 years of commercial aircraft operating experience.
