GLO Airlines grounds all flights indefinitely
Southern regional carrier GLO Airlines is grounding all flights indefinitely as there is no resolution in sight in its dispute with partner Corporate Flight Management (CFM).
GLO, currently in bankruptcy proceedings, has been in a long running dispute with CFM which operates all flight services on behalf of the FlyGLO brand.
GLO has canceled numerous flights due to the ‘inability and unwillingness of CFM to properly staff flights and maintain aircraft as required," it said.
The original contract with CFM was due to expire at the end of this month, and GLO has been on the lookout for a new flight services operator for several months.
"We thought the responsible thing to do was to cancel the remainder of our flights and the remainder of our contract with CFM," GLO spokesman Jordan Mitchell told WDSU News.
Under the agreement CFM was responsible for operating all GLO’s flights with its own flight crew, and maintaining aircraft.
CFM acknowledges it has grounded some flights because GLO had failed to pay maintenance costs.
"Despite its continued efforts to avoid taking responsibility, the blame for FlyGLO’s shutdown rests with FlyGLO alone," said CFM spokesman David Louis.
GLO had operated out of New Orleans serving destinations including Memphis, Shreeveport and Little Rock with a fleet of three 30-passenger Saab 340B aircraft.
"Once GLO reaches terms with a new operator, it will resume flights," said GLO founder Trey Fayard.
