Flyglobespan is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Globespan Group Plc a company established in 1974.

The airline commenced its first flight in April 2002 and now operates 21 aircraft to a wide range of destinations within Europe, Africa, Canada and the USA. Bases are located in Edinburgh and Glasgow and a new base at London Stansted commenced operation in early November 2005.

Flyglobespan’s aircraft fly quietly, economically and are environmentally friendly. We have a young fleet of modern aircraft, recent additions being the Boeing 737-800’s which commenced service in April 2005.

A wide bodied Boeing 767-300 with 3 classes of service, is the very latest addition to the fleet, the ideal aircraft to operate our flight programme to long haul destinations, including the USA.

flyglobespan was the first UK airline to install winglets to the wings of its 737-800's enabling a faster rate of climb and resulting in greater fuel efficiency.

New and nearly-new aircraft offer many advantages. Our technology is always up to the latest standards and we use the quietest and most economical engines. This enables us to save operating costs and increase our competitiveness, as well as making an effective contribution to environmental protection.
