British Instagram influencer behind world's newest airline which says it has four Airbus A380s

A travel businessman and trendsetter is introducing a fresh aviation venture with a collection of two-story airplanes that he claims will revive the glorious era of air travel.

James Asquith frequently shares his extravagant lifestyle with over 1 million of his Instagram fans and holds the globally recognized achievement for being the most youthful individual to visit every single country on our planet.

The individual hailing from the city of London, aged 34, gained recognition for establishing Holiday Swap, an application referred to as 'Travel Tinder'. This app enables homeowners across the globe to connect and arrange vacations in each other's residences.

Currently, he has introduced Global Airlines, an airline company that claims to possess four large aircraft and aims to compete against popular airlines such as Virgin Atlantic and British Airways on the fiercely competitive transatlantic journey.

The SuperJumbo, also known as the Airbus A380, holds the title for being the biggest commercial aircraft worldwide, which makes it highly adored among aviation enthusiasts. However, its numbers are rapidly dwindling, as only 261 of these giants have been manufactured and production is set to cease in 2021.

James Asquith, aged 34, has introduced Global Airlines, a company aiming to operate SuperJumbo aircrafts from Gatwick to New York by the upcoming Spring.

Asquith frequently showcases his glamorous way of life to his extensive Instagram fanbase, consisting of over one million avid followers.

The planes, which have a price tag of about $450 million per unit, have the capacity to transport numerous business class and economy passengers simultaneously on the Gatwick-New York route. Additionally, they provide customers with an opportunity to socialize while onboard.

The word on the street is that Asquith is capitalizing on the aviation sector's declining interest in these aircrafts by purchasing them pre-owned, at a reduced cost.

The entrepreneur and online writer states that his firm has currently bought four planes, and asserts that he can reduce expenses by acquiring the aircraft instead of opting for leasing options like most airlines usually do.

Global Airlines is aiming to transport travelers from London Gatwick to New York as soon as the coming Spring. The confirmation of this plan by Gatwick Airport is pending and has not yet been announced to MailOnline.

It would be quite a challenge, as there are currently no other A380s operating on this route and commercial airlines consider the plane to be too costly to refuel and difficult to find parking space for.

This has resulted in a significant amount of doubt among industry professionals regarding the success of the plan.

Paul Charles, the ex-communications director at Virgin Atlantic, expressed to Sky News that the aviation sector is brimming with individuals who possess aspirations of soaring through the atmosphere and fostering rivalry. However, he acknowledges that these endeavors are undoubtedly challenging.

Global Airlines claims to own four large passenger aircraft and aspires to rival companies like Virgin Atlantic and British Airways in the fiercely competitive transatlantic market.

The entrepreneur and online writer asserts that his company has bought four Airbus A380s up until now, and argues that he can save money by acquiring the planes instead of leasing them.

The world traveler is quite familiar with top-notch journeys and frequently shares pictures of himself and his soon-to-be spouse, Scottish trendsetter Robyn Ferguson, during extravagant vacations across the globe.

According to Rhys Jones, who is an expert from Head for Points, having multiple flights per day is crucial on this particular route. This is because it attracts high-paying business travelers who prefer flexible travel times instead of being limited to just one daily flight.

British Airways runs a combined total of 11 flights to airports in New York every day using both Heathrow and Gatwick, offering travelers a range of departure options.

Asquith, nevertheless, who has been tagged as the upcoming Richard Branson by a few, is confident that his company will transform the way we fly.

Our aspirations with Global are clearly reflected in the name itself. Individuals may harbor doubts, as they generally do when faced with any seemingly wild scheme.

The world traveler is quite familiar with top-notch vacations, frequently posting pictures of himself and his partner, a Scottish social media influencer and former plane crew member named Robyn Ferguson, enjoying extravagant trips across the globe.

Hailing from Cuckfield, Sussex and being raised by a pilot and personal assistant, Asquith has always possessed grand aspirations and a remarkable knack for business.

At the age of 12, he engaged in the task of cleaning cars within his neighborhood and diligently saved the earnings, as disclosed in his conversation with South China Morning Post. Subsequently, during his teenage years, he undertook the responsibility of juggling three different job positions.

He proceeded to pursue his education at the London School of Economics and utilized his saved money to purchase a property while studying. Unfortunately, he later experienced a setback when the value of his stocks declined, leading to the collapse of the housing deal.

Following the completion of his education, he landed a job at HSBC where he successfully secured a sufficient amount of time off to chase after his longstanding aspiration of traveling to every single country on Earth.

Asquith achieved a remarkable feat at the age of 24 by surpassing the world record for being the youngest individual to journey to every single country on our globe.

In the year 2013, Asquith achieved the remarkable feat of becoming the youngest individual to explore all 196 independent nations across the globe. He went on to set this record during his time in Micronesia when he was just 24 years and 192 days old.

In 2018, he was motivated by his adventures in time travel to establish Holiday Swap, an application that enables individuals to exchange lodging by connecting with people from all corners of the globe.
