About

Global Crossing Airlines, also known as GlobalX, is a charter airline that has recently gained attention for its involvement in transporting national sports teams. News reports indicate that both the Portuguese and French men's national soccer teams have utilized GlobalX aircraft for their travel to World Cup matches. This has drawn scrutiny because the same planes have reportedly been used for the Trump administration's immigration enforcement operations, including mass deportations. Specifically, one article mentions a GlobalX aircraft being used to transport Venezuelans to El Salvador, reportedly against a judge's orders. The airline's use by prominent national teams, juxtaposed with its role in deportation flights, has made it a subject of current news coverage and public discussion regarding the ethical implications of such dual usage.
