Everything about this seems woefully naive about aviation. You have to have versatility in your fleet and cabins. This is like an aviation fan is “having a go” at what he thinks would be cool.
Southwest and their all 737 fleet would prove you wrong there. What an all A380 fleet airline needs is a relative large (for a new airline) set of city-pairs that can both 1) handle the A380 and 2) have demand. This could well be the super jumbo version of Southwest. All economy (or economy+ for longer-haul flights).
@@MesaperProductions a purely 737-fleet operating just short and medium haul flights cannot be compared with an A380-fleet which comes with a hefty operational price tag.
okay but imagine having a "gamer class" in a 12 hour flight the gamers wouldn't even notice they have been in the aircraft for that long and that'd be amazing
I am unsure whether their model of having an all A380 Fleet would do well. We should take a note of the reasons other airlines chose to retire the A380 like high maintenance and operating costs. We should also keep in mind that the passenger flows are constantly changing, people are opting for better and faster connectivity in regional routes than the conventional routes between major cities. But, I hope they overcome these setbacks and keep the legacy of A380 alive.
I travel between Canada and the UK, specifically Gatwick, quite often, so I would love for an A380 to fly in. I wholeheartedly support them and hope they succeed.
(2:57) The name 'Global' suggested to me that they'd have multiple hub airports, and I'm getting the impression that they plan to have just that and expand later on but start with one hub first. (6:45) I think they silently cancelled it due to safety issues. Even then, someone would've had to bring their own console that has their save data. I also find it interesting that they don't seem to have a premium economy class. (8:58) I'm surprised they got their name in the registration, in a way that reminds me of vanity/personalised registrations for cars that some countries allow.
like Gatwick they could pick quieter secondary airports such as La Guardia in NYC or Long Beach in LA and smaller middle eastern cities such as Jeddah or Kuwait. @@jwil4286
A380 factor aside, if they can offer great value (note, not *cheap*) long haul services, maybe they'll have a shot. However, they'd need to offer a compelling frequent flyer scheme or integrate with an alliance to maximise buy-in from higher-class fliers. If I could fly between Australia and the UK in an economy class that's more tolerable than the current cattletruck arrangements airlines somehow deem appropriate for subjecting humans to for 15+ hours at a time, I would happily pay a bit more to experience that. For shorter routes I'd simply be won over by excellent service, logical well-coordinated boarding process, and guaranteed carry-on space.
As much as i love the 380 and want to see it keep flying as long as possible, i have to agree with you. Just a380s? And no 320s, 330s, 350s or 737s, 787s etc? I hope they prove this comment and my thoughts wrong
😊 this is just a dude who made some money and now going to blow it on this video game fantasy but he would hardly be the first you see it all the time in the airline industry startups😊
as a customer, I only fly in business with Emirates A380 because it's paid by my company and the privacy of the business Emirates A380 is the only one who's REALLY private. So, if I could travel in A380 without passing by Dubai every time, I would do it.
At least they can buy aircraft cheap given their age. Of course, doing a redo of the interior is an expensive proposition. I seem to remember that part of the reason Air France retired their a380 was it was going to cost $50 million per plane to redo their interiors into a competitive offering.
I understand the scepticism, but an airline offering affordable transatlantic A380 flights to Gatwick is pretty much my absolutely ideal scenario, so I desperately hope this actually works out.
I’m honestly left wondering why aren’t they using used 777s instead? There are actually quite a few on the market right that aren’t that old. Seems like it would be much better starting point.
It's the brand appeal of the A380 that they hope will make customers specifically seek them out rather than competing to be the best deal on a search engine. Almost every passenger who has flown on the A380 rates it as the best aircraft they have ever flown on. The 777 doesn't have that appeal. Infact, for me personally, the 777 (Qatar airways configuration in economy class) is the worst widebody I have ever flown on in terms of passenger comfort. Without the A380, they would be just another start-up in a fiercely competitive market. Purely because of the A380, they are already getting far more media attention, publicity and free advertising than a start-up their size could even dream of. I hope they succeed. The A380 (Emirates configuration) is by a huge margin the most comfortable aircraft for long haul economy flights. They are still better in this aspect than the 787 and A350.
IT'S GREAT PUTTING INTO SERVICE A380'S THAT OTHER AIRLINES LIST CONFIDENCE IN IS WONDERFUL !! BUY AND REFURBISH A380 THAT WERE PUT OUT TO THE WRECKING BALL IS GREAT !! HOPE THEY CONTINUE GETTING A380'S FROM SCRAP YARDS REFURBISH THEM AND PUT THEM TO WORK !! IT'S GREAT GO GLOBAL❤❤❤!!!
If anyone is doing any work for the airline they need to make sure they get paid before it goes wrong there's only so many premium customers per flight route there won't be enough to to make it pay
They seem to have the funding, judging on your report about how they are spending their money. Let’s hope they have the right product that puts bums on seats and makes each flight profitable. I’m one of those people who remains to be convinced, but I admire there courage in giving it to go, and I really wish them well. If you give people a good enough reason to fly with you and the price is right, for what you provide, then they will.
We'll see. It seems to make sense to purchase aircraft when there perceived value is low, and they seem like they're trying to compete in a premium market, which means they shouldn't be as constrained on operating costs with "low-cost" carriers. Still the problem with both the B747 and the A380 is getting the seats filled enough on a routine basis to break even, let alone make a profit.
If it doesn't inmediately fail, and that's saying something, it will be another regular ass regular airline. Promising the sky is very easy. Actually delivering is another matter entirerly.
I am an Airbus fanboy, but I still scratch my head with what Global is doing. Huge risk if indeed they ate truthful. We'll see. Personally I don't believe they will even take off with their plans. They will disappear and remain s footnote in the annexes of aviation history.
..... looking for a pinch of salt. They cannot create a new approach to the basic concept. The primary goal of air travel is safe transportation from point A to point B, regardless of the promotional gimmicks in their marketing materials. Lengthy security lines and misplaced luggage, crowded airports are external factors beyond the airline's influence. The choice between a no-frills or a luxurious product is in the hands of the passenger. What unique features do they provide that set them apart from other airlines? Lounge access, gourmet food, and high-quality onboard service are already available in the industry. Additionally, the costs of operating a single aircraft or a fleet of four are considerably higher. I'm uncertain about the background or genuine motives behind this startup, but it appears somewhat dubious to me.
They lost me at premium service. I think their most difficult task would be constantly finding subscribers to this premium service that would prefer to fly commercial over private. I love the concept but would have opted for premium flights and economy flights using different planes. They have 3 planes 1 for a premium service and 2 for economy which would leave room to pivot accordingly
It would be cool to see this succeed and Airbus even making new A380 Neo planes, but I don't think this will happen. This seems to be one rich guy's delusions.
Every new airline claims they will "revolutionize flying." People don't need a revolutionized flying experience; people don't want that. People just want seat sizes and leg room to stop shrinking and for customer service to return to what it was 25 years ago without tickets costing an arm and a leg. We don't need crazy gimmicks; just a comfortable seat, a good inflight entertainment system, and customer service that treats passengers like people and not cargo. Don't overthink it. However, I fear Global is going to promise the world in order to differentiate themselves from every other airline and will end up coming out with a very average product in a highly competitive space.
Totally agree with you. People laugh at Michael O’Leary, but he knows what customers want. Keep it cheap, and keep it simple. All the marketing for Global looks like it was made by a 15 year old for their ‘design your own airline’ project.
The word “global” became a buzzword a few years awhile back, and someone sick of it suggested that using “global” meant that the writer or speaker is purveying “globaloney.”
Southwest and their all 737 fleet prove that a single aircraft model airline is entirely feasible. What an all A380 fleet airline needs is a relative large (for a new airline) set of city-pairs that can both 1) handle the A380 and 2) have demand. This could well be the super jumbo version of Southwest. All economy (or economy+ for longer-haul flights).
If they can plant 850 bums on seats per flight, it will be successful. Costs covered! Premium Economy but holiday flights will do it. A decent meal, and some other goodies, and this could be Freddie Laker all over again.
Early name change inevitable . . . has anyone involved with this unlikely project noticed there's a US-based carrier GlobalX (Global Crossing Airlines)? EVA Air imagined they were going to use the Evergreen title just as Northern Pacific was forced to think again and become New Pacific. Therefore, zero prospects for the current name being around by the time of the first commercial flight!
I don't think Global Airlines will succeed that much. If I am wrong, then so be it. However, operating exclusively wide-bodies especially A380s at a startup airline is something literally no one has ever done, and given its associated costs I am not confident Global Airlines will see the success it hopes for.
Dear Global Airlines, Nice try, but you're bit too late to the party. Your business model just does not work out. Airbus A380s are no longer produced and the whole reason they are failing economically and being retired by other airlines to begin with is exactly because of their size, cost, and maintenance requirements. Unfortunately, what goes up must come back down at some point, and finding airports to land at that meet their passengers' needs may be just as difficult as starting the business, especially when having to compete with the other huge airlines that already exist. If you had come out with 747s back when hub-and-spoke travel was still profitable, and perhaps offered up a cargo service as well, maybe you could have had a slightly better shot at success. But in the modern world, people care much more about the cost, frequency, and flexibility of their flights then they care about how big their plane is. So I don't think you'll get very far, but good luck, Global Airlines! Let's see just how long you last and just how far in the process you get before your last A380 eventually but inevitably ends up on the scrap pile. Respectfully and Sincerely, HydroWorld Outlook
So what routes is this supposed to serve, what demand? London doesn’t have any need for 10-20 more A380 flights per day… unsurprisingly. Is it connections? Through London Gatwick? From where to where? Anything except Europe/Middle East to North America is exceptionally inconvenient. Where is their market? WHAT is their market? Flying an A380 isn’t a money-printing machine.
There are so many people wanting to revolutionise the avition industry, but almost always fail, so I guess this one might as well. Many, like this ceo, are dreaming of the old days were flying eas a real premium with airlines such as Panam, but nowadays there are just not enough people willing to pay the steep price to do so.
So he studied fiance so he chooses the worlds most uneconomic plane to start an airline that isn't smart you'd start with the most efficient aircraft and definitely a smaller aircraft to start with even the 757 would have been a better choice i can't see premium paying off
The only way this could have worked out would have been full economy low cost, the premium markets don’t need one more competitor, and gaming class is a complete joke
I think them making it depends on where they intend to fly to and how loyal customers will be when the novelty of flying on an all A380 fleet airline wears off.
This is still a joke just wasting money at this point and pretty much everyone in the industry knows that so they're going to let him like spend the money he thinks he has
Just before you think "rags to riches", remember he made his money from bailouts. So it's your taxpayer money that is funding his conspicuous consumption crap. Just think about that.
Sooooo he stole an idea for Airbnb and now wants to start an airline with horrible economic principles. Sounds like a great businessman, I'm sure this will all go swimmingly🤣🙄
It depends how it’s operated surely. It doesn’t suit most airlines but it certainly works for Emirates And even those with just a few. The general public likes the aircraft, that’s good but it’s not enough, but if they provide the right product and get bums on seats it’s possible .
@@RasscasseEmirates is the hub and spoke model taken to its logical extreme, boosted by a great geographical position. Global seems to be trying the same thing, but since hub and spoke is kinda dying out, I don't know how it's going to go
Yes, you have to fill these monsters to make a profit from them. They’re not even very good for cargo as a second revenue. It seems very naive to have no versatility in your fleet.
Somebody is wasting a lot of money, it's going to cost a fortune. Profits are hard to find and losses are easier to happen than you think. I wouldn't let them use my money.
So, to recap: a kid who went to private school and had millions to invest during the financial crisis “grew up poor” because they had a beat up car…? This is giving victoria beckham talking about growing up poor and then telling us her dad would pick which Range Rover to take her to private school in. Why are rich people so desperate to cosplay as poor people?
We will see. Another one who wants to reinvent the wheel? BTW: the A380 comes with a hefty operational price tag! To survive, Global will have to sell their tickets at a much higher price than Virgin or BA, operating smaller and much more cost effective aircrafts.
Do you think Global Airlines will join the One World Alliance or the Star Alliance or the SkyTeam Alliance? According to British Airways, 20--22 cabin crew are needed to operate the Airbus A380 aircraft. Where will Global Airlines get its pilots and cabin crew from? Not many airlines operate the Airbus A380. According to the British Airways documentary on UA-cam, 'A very British Airline' an Airbus A380 aircraft costs "around £250 million". There are so many airlines operating at the moment. Do you think Global Airlines will encourage other airlines to lower their prices? How long do you think Global Airlines will survive in the aviation industry? Do you think Global Airlines will merge with another airline? Air France and KLM merged, Delta Airlines and Northwest Airlines merged, United Airlines and Continental Airlines merged, Southwest Airlines and AirTran Airways merged, American Airlines and US Airways merged.
They won’t be joining an alliance. The other members would have to want them to be a part of their club. Even buying the used a380 for cheap, there is still the variable cost of operating a plane that costs 200-300% more per flight hour than a 777. Just buying planes won’t matter, you need to have the landing slots and gates. It’s a reality that gates for an a380 are limited especially at JFK or LAX. Hi fly learned this chartering to Norwegian Air replacing the 787 with a380 into JFK. There wasn’t gates available.
Any new airlines keeping the wonderful A380 flying around the world has my support.
Absolutely 👏
Definitely 👍
Tho they need more money rather than our support so hope they'll be succesfull
If you don’t support them by buying tickets your “support” is of no help to them.
Publicity is helpful too. 😉
Both the livery and the name seem like a default option on Microsoft Flight Simulator lol
Ikr
I was thinking the same thing lol
Giving be 'World travel airlines" vibes
Absolutely.
😂
I remember when I got the FlightRadar24 notification about it, can’t wait to see more progress
I know right!
I wish them all the best. Hopefully I will be able to experience the A380 again with Global one day soon.
I wish Global luck. We will see if "fortune favors the bold."

@@eamonahern7495 In that case you meant "their making it" which does make sense .
The Fyrefest of airlines
If they want it to truly be a premium product they're going to have to go out of Heathrow. Gatwick is awful in every way.
✈️
They need to add something else to their fleet to serve airports that can’t handle the A380
Is there a bar in Business Class? I don’t care about video games.
Pakistan looking for direct flights especially with PIA being banned
I smell super high debts
Same.
for the amount of money people spend on traveling nowdays everybody should be first class it really doesn't make sense 🙄
This is still a joke just wasting money at this point and pretty much everyone in the industry knows that so they're going to let him like spend the money he thinks he has
Just before you think "rags to riches", remember he made his money from bailouts. So it's your taxpayer money that is funding his conspicuous consumption crap. Just think about that.
Gamer class sounds wierd to me
Sooooo he stole an idea for Airbnb and now wants to start an airline with horrible economic principles. Sounds like a great businessman, I'm sure this will all go swimmingly🤣🙄
Wtf is that name and livery? 😂😂😂😂
Yes please! ❤
Luxurious traveling in gorgeous A380 without karens, children, and american drunkards? I'm in!
The more luxurious, the more Carens! 😂
What are the chances of this airline surviving?
How? Have you never watched a half professional video before
Premium is going to kill the airline off
Set up for failure.. the A380 is the most expensive aircraft with the lowest earning marge..
It depends how it’s operated surely.
It doesn’t suit most airlines but it certainly works for Emirates And even those with just a few.
The general public likes the aircraft, that’s good but it’s not enough, but if they provide the right product and get bums on seats it’s possible .
@@RasscasseEmirates is the hub and spoke model taken to its logical extreme, boosted by a great geographical position. Global seems to be trying the same thing, but since hub and spoke is kinda dying out, I don't know how it's going to go
Yes, you have to fill these monsters to make a profit from them. They’re not even very good for cargo as a second revenue. It seems very naive to have no versatility in your fleet.
The branding does not inspire confidence
Another laker then
Somebody is wasting a lot of money, it's going to cost a fortune. Profits are hard to find and losses are easier to happen than you think. I wouldn't let them use my money.
So, to recap: a kid who went to private school and had millions to invest during the financial crisis “grew up poor” because they had a beat up car…? This is giving victoria beckham talking about growing up poor and then telling us her dad would pick which Range Rover to take her to private school in. Why are rich people so desperate to cosplay as poor people?
Absolutely! 👍 This is another idea of a completely spoiled, nouveau riche child!
Very romantic. Too much special tobacco consumed.
So if lets say this airline fails
shouldn't be called a global disaster airlines?
We will see.
Another one who wants to reinvent the wheel?
BTW: the A380 comes with a hefty operational price tag! To survive, Global will have to sell their tickets at a much higher price than Virgin or BA, operating smaller and much more cost effective aircrafts.
I’d put money in this not happening.
I hope they will change the livery to a more sophisticated look.... the current one is hideous
He's going to lose money. Its a bit fishy.
Idea: offer some J seats but don't sell them, must earn status flying Y and they upgrade people to J
This is horrible ngl
You’re very shady here
Seems like a pyramid scheme
???

Do you think Global Airlines will join the One World Alliance or the Star Alliance or the SkyTeam Alliance? According to British Airways, 20--22 cabin crew are needed to operate the Airbus A380 aircraft. Where will Global Airlines get its pilots and cabin crew from? Not many airlines operate the Airbus A380. According to the British Airways documentary on UA-cam, 'A very British Airline' an Airbus A380 aircraft costs "around £250 million". There are so many airlines operating at the moment. Do you think Global Airlines will encourage other airlines to lower their prices? How long do you think Global Airlines will survive in the aviation industry? Do you think Global Airlines will merge with another airline? Air France and KLM merged, Delta Airlines and Northwest Airlines merged, United Airlines and Continental Airlines merged, Southwest Airlines and AirTran Airways merged, American Airlines and US Airways merged.
My guess is they will get their pilots from India and flight attendants from the Philippines to save money.
They won’t be joining an alliance. The other members would have to want them to be a part of their club.
Even buying the used a380 for cheap, there is still the variable cost of operating a plane that costs 200-300% more per flight hour than a 777.
Just buying planes won’t matter, you need to have the landing slots and gates. It’s a reality that gates for an a380 are limited especially at JFK or LAX. Hi fly learned this chartering to Norwegian Air replacing the 787 with a380 into JFK. There wasn’t gates available.
"As close to premium as possible" - on second hand aircraft! lol
The cabins will be brand-new though.
This seems like an advertisement for the airline
