Global Crossing Airlines, Inc., operating as GlobalX Airlines, is an American Part 121, domestic, flag, and supplemental charter airline headquartered in Miami, Florida. The airline was founded in 2018 by Ed Wegel, who previously co-founded the reincarnated Eastern Air Lines. GlobalX provides ad-hoc passenger charter and cargo airlift to destinations throughout the United States, Europe, the Caribbean, and Latin America.
History
In 2020, GlobalX completed a merger & spin-out with Canada Jetlines, an ultra low-cost airline headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario.[4] In late 2020, GlobalX formed CubaX, a tour operator that provides weekly non-stop flights from Miami to Havana, Cuba. In 2021, CubaX began operating daily charter flights using GlobalX aircraft.[5] As demand increases, the airline will add more routes in partnership with large tour operators in other key markets.
