NEW ORLEANS – Glo Airlines has been named by anna.aero, the airline network for news and analysis, the ‘Biggest ‘new’ airline in the US market’ for 2016 and received a US ANNIE award.
According to anna.aero:
“The regional carrier is based at New Orleans and operates three routes from the facility to Little Rock, Memphis and Shreveport. Founded in 2013 by its CEO Trey Fayard, the airline commenced operations in November last year, with it currently operating three Saab 340s according to its website.
“The story of the airline’s birth is because of the CEO’s experience of being offered a lack of connectivity. ‘The Gulf and Mid-South regions are currently underserved by air carriers, forcing an over-reliance on road travel between the regions’ cities. The need to drive results in an enormous waste of valuable time and loss of productivity driving to destinations that should have air service,’ states the airline’s ‘about us’ page.”
