James Asquith, 34, has promised passengers a "return to the golden age of flying", claiming there'll be better food and drink on offer, as well as a more luxurious experience overall. He told the Times : 'People are sick and tired of the service they get on current airlines. We will be better.' Part of the airline's classier offering will include Laurent-Perrier champagne, even for those flying in economy. Meanwhile, first-class ticket holders will be entitled to chauffeur-driven airport transfers and have a 'proper social space' on board. He continued: 'Having a strong product in first class should filter down to economy, and make people in economy feel like a million dollars." Before anyone can fly on the planes, the airline will first need approval from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and an air operator certificate (AOC). It will also need to satisfy the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the US that it is a safe airline. Some people have criticised Global, saying that buying the A380s, the biggest passenger plane available, is a bad idea, with smaller planes predicted to be used much more in the future of air travel. Smaller planes are now capable of completing longer journeys at a fraction of the cost of larger planes, like the A380. An aviation source told the Times, Global's vision was an "expensive pipe dream". However, Asquith said the bigger planes will help him and){kind=link}
