Global Airways - Zortan - 02-10-2018
Global Airways has recently started operations in HNL, however flights are already branching off around the world, with many different hubs, such as New York-JFK, London-Heathrow, Dubai-International, and more! Global Airways is aiming to capture the global trunk-route market. Many trunk routes around the world are not being served in AEn, such as GRU-GIG, which has only 2 weekly flights. In real life, this route has many weekly flights, and Global Airways believes in it's philosophy that people should be able to fly from any airport to any airport. A livery and logo are being released for the airline in the near future.
Meanwhile - here is a list of the current fleet of Global Airways:
