    Flights were on time, cabin crew efficient and professional. Have used this airline on several occasions. Would definitely recommend FlyGlobeSpan to friends.

    FlyGlobeSpan outbound flight from belfast international on sep 18th 2009 was delayed by 2 hrs and then delayed for a further 2 (4hrs in total) which meant we lost half a day - there was no announcement of the 2nd delay either

    smooth flight to and from orlando although service was poor, cramped seats and 1970's style tv screen for in-flight movie - return flight on sep 25th was delayed again by 2 hours with no reason given...

    FlyGlobeSpan Business class seats (only available on outbound flight) were okay until my footrest fell off. Everything was for sale, including pillows and blankets, even in the business class cabin. The aircraft appeared to an early 1980s Boeing 767-300, still with the original 1980s interior from its first owner. Some of the economy seats were also falling apart, held together with duct tape. Apparently we were lucky to have only a two hour delay on each leg! On the return journey, we were stun ...

    Arriving in Glasgow I discovered a rip in my checked Samsonite suitcase over 1 foot in length. I showed the damage to FlyGlobespan's service desk and they gave me a copy of the report. When I arrived back in Florida, I mailed a letter, copy of their damage report, original bill of sale, and two digital pictures via air mail to the airline in Edinburgh. That was the beginning of June and I have heard nothing in reply. The young ladies at the Glasgow service desk said "they don't like to pay f ...

    I booked a flight with Globespan in January 09 and am due to fly out on Sept 11th. We were to receive an email to advise if they would accept 1 of my passengers due to a medical condition which i was told had to be reffered to the pilot to see if they would let this person fly. This would be confirmed via email. However I received some1 elses details & called Globespan who said that this was an error & said sorry! This is breech of data protection!! I was told that my details were not sent out ...

    Just returned from a weeks trip with Flyglobespan. Outward flight was on time. Aircraft modern and plenty of leg room. Cabin crew freindly. Bar prices same as any other charter airline. Return flight 1 hour delayed. Only thing to moan about is that no-one in Faro airport advised of the delay. Flight was delayed due the flight being late into Aberdeen the night before and the cabin crew were past their flying hours so had to wait for the Glasgow Aircraft so we could travel on it with the Glasgow ...

    Booked FlyGlobeSpan flights from Glasgow,Wednesday to Wednesday, then told they dont fly to Orlando on a Wednesday anymore, this was after they have our cash. Then change the times of out flight from Am to Pm, and when we got to airport informed that flight was delayed.
    Arrived at Sanford with a days villa rental lost.
    On the return arrived at Sanford to book in to be informed that flight was 7 hours late(the plane was still in Belfast)
    When we eventually boarded at 01.00 for a flight that was ...

    flyglobespan is an awful airline. Our flight from Orlando to Belfast was delayed for 7 hours (from 10 pm til 5am). They gave us a 10 dollar meal voucher which could not even buy you a small meal. They also gave no information about the flight. The food was disgusting - I think a dog would have been insulted by it. The TV in the part of the plane which I was sitting in was broke for part of the journey so there was sound but no picture.

    FlyGlobeSpan has to be the worse airline I've ever seen. On the flight from Canada to Scotland it was a "direct" flight that stop in Ireland (Be careful of that wording) which was posted as being on time but once checked it it was 6 hours late. On the way back, again it was posted as being on time, after 5 hours of nothing, they informed us that the flight would be 11 hours "late". All this to save $100??? Not worth it. Their on time rating is extremely low. I would have given them no starts, bu ...

    Flyglobespan leased a Boeing 757-200, DISGUSTING! Flight was on time. The plane went via Knock in Ireland. No pillows or blankets, 1 meal which was tiny! The seats were uncomfortable, and when you sit in them, you can feel the board of the seat against your back! No complimentary drinks, no Video Screens! Landed in JFK, waited 3 hours to pass US CUSTOMS, then finally begun the best holiday of my life! :)

    On the way back, it was pretty much the same, although we departed 3 hours late because of ...

    Like loads of people from Glasgow, flyglobespan is the first place I check for a flight. Customer service better than other lo cost carriers. If you expect little, remembering it is basically a flying bus with no luxuries, you will not be disappointed. If you want luxury or superb service, stick to the big carriers. Have flown with them loads of times - some delays a couple of years ago but in last 2 years all flight I booked ran to time. Staff are fine, and have improved considerably over the l ...

    Since booking with FlyGlobeSpan, THREE changes have been made.
    Firstly, I'm told my flight is changed from Thurs to Thurs, to wed to wed. Then I'm told I'm no longer being flown to Hamilton, but instead I'm being taken all the way to Toronto instead. When I asked how they will get me back to Hamilton, they said they wouldn't! I would have to provide & pay for my own transfer. Even though THEY are the ones taking me to a completely different place. Finally I discover I'm on a Thomas Cook flig ...

    Our original flight was cancelled because of "operational reasons" and we were rebooked to a flight some 15 hours later. Not good at all as we basically lost a day of our holiday. Other than this major problem, Globespan performed well indeed with on time flights, excellent check ins and capable cabin crews.

    First flight cancelled due to "operational reasons">! This meant we were delayed by 15 hours and lost half a days holiday. Would have liked an explanation as to why this flight was cancelled.

    Excellent flight on time. FlyGlobeSpan flight crew pleasant and helpful We flew from Edinburghto Palma in May 2009.

    FlyGlobeSpan have improved recently I think. I'm from Glasgow and have used them several times due to good routes from our airport. Flights a couple of years ago were plagued by delays and inefficient staff, but in the last year when I flew with them things had improved considerably. Flights seem to be nearly always full (in my experience) so some people must like them ! I think there is also an element of being a Scottish airline.
