Global Airlines (technically) starts selling tickets on a wet-leased A380

[WilsonM]

Global Airlines has put two flights on sale on a wet-leased A380, from Manchester and Glasgow to New York JFK.

Global Airlines is now taking bookings for its 'launch' flights!

You may have thought Global Airlines, the A380 start-up airline, had gone, but seats are on sale for one-off flights from Manchester and Glasgow to New York!

Pricing is a bit silly, with First Class from £6,828 return, Business class from £3,699 return and Economy class from £777 return. You can't select seats AFAIK - I don't even know what the interior looks like.

Kinda feels like a scam still. But I'm still really tempted to buy a whY ticket on this (I'll be in Europe around that time), just to see how it actually is.

Those low, low prices are actually to JFK.

Interior would be as per China Southerns A380s, pretty hard to change now as everything is grandfathered

Just make sure that your credit card provider will refund under insolvency.
