History

The airline started service in November 2015 and utilized a fleet of three 30-seat Saab 340B aircraft.[1] GLO was founded by Calvin "Trey" Fayard and was operated by Corporate Flight Management.[2]

In April 2017, GLO Airlines declared bankruptcy, after Corporate Flight Management "unilaterally terminated its contract to operate GLO's program and fly passengers". Operations were initially suspended; however, they resumed on 25 April.[3] GLO service was suspended again on July 15, 2017 and has not resumed.[4]
