History
Global Air began operations in February 1990 under the name of Damojh Aerolíneas S.A. de C.V., based in Guadalajara.[1] Until December 2011 it was based at the Mexico City International Airport; it subsequently built new hangars and an apron at the Capitán Rogelio Castillo National Airport located in Celaya, Guanajuato.[citation needed] The company slogan is Spanish: En Global Air le damos la bienvenida y lo invitamos a viajar con nosotros ya que llegará confortablemente a su destino.
On November 4, 2010, a Global Air Boeing 737-200, registration XA-UHY, had to make an emergency landing in the Mexican city of Puerto Vallarta due to a technical failure. That landing resulted in a suspension of activities for the airline between November and December of that year.[8][9]
Another aircraft was suspended between October 2013 and January 2014 as a result of the demand made by Marco Aurelio Hernández, captain of the company, who denounced technical irregularities in the operation of the aircraft.[8]
