FlexFlight
An Austrian scheduled carrier operating under the GlobeAir identity, with a diverse international network marketed under the FlexFlight W2 code.
About FlexFlight
FlexFlight services under the W2 designator are identified here with the Austrian legal name GlobeAir and ICAO code GAC. GlobeAir was founded in 2007 and is headquartered in Austria. The FlexFlight name is also associated with distribution and ticketing arrangements that can place the W2 code on flights delivered through different operating structures, making it important for passengers to check the operating carrier shown on each booking.
The network covers 55 destinations across 29 countries through 110 routes. Stockholm is the busiest departure hub by route count, followed by Tallinn, Vilnius, Kabul and Reykjavik. The schedule spans parts of Europe, Central and South Asia, Africa and selected leisure markets, with destinations including Madrid, Berlin, Riga, Antalya, Kandahar and Bamako. Some journeys may reflect partner or marketed services rather than a conventional single-hub airline operation.
Aircraft recorded across these services include ATR 72 turboprops, Airbus A320s, Boeing 737-300, 737-800 and 737-900 aircraft, and larger Boeing 747-400, 757-200, 767-200 and MD-83 jets. Jetstream 31 and 32 aircraft and the EC3 type also appear. Because this is an unusually varied fleet record, cabin layouts, travel classes, seat comfort and onboard service can differ substantially by route and operating carrier.
FlexFlight and GlobeAir are not members of Star Alliance, SkyTeam or Oneworld. No dedicated frequent-flyer programme is consistently attached to the W2 network. Travellers should nevertheless enter any eligible partner loyalty number during booking and confirm whether the flight earns miles, since benefits and accrual depend on the company operating the aircraft, the fare category and any bilateral loyalty agreement that applies.
The network's breadth is useful for travellers seeking routes that may be difficult to find through larger network airlines, and the W2 code can simplify access to services sold through partner distribution channels. The corresponding challenge is inconsistency: baggage rules, check-in arrangements, aircraft, cabin standards and disruption support may vary between itineraries. Reading the operating-carrier details and fare conditions before payment is especially important when booking these flights.
Good to know
Flying with FlexFlight — what to expect
Check Operating Carrier
Confirm which airline will operate each flight, not just the W2 marketing code. The operating carrier normally determines check-in procedures, baggage rules and onboard service.
Baggage Rules Vary
Allowances can differ by route, fare and operating airline. Review the baggage terms printed on the booking confirmation before arriving at the airport.
Cabins Differ Widely
The recorded aircraft range from regional turboprops to wide-body jets, so seating and cabin service are not uniform. Check the aircraft and fare inclusions for the specific sector.
Verify Check-In Desk
Online check-in may be provided through the operating carrier rather than the FlexFlight or GlobeAir website. Airport screens and booking documents should identify the correct desk.
Connections Need Care
For itineraries involving separate tickets or different operators, leave additional transfer time and confirm whether baggage will be checked through. Missed-connection protection may depend on how the journey was ticketed.
Loyalty Credit Limited
There is no consistently applicable dedicated frequent-flyer programme across the network. Ask the operating airline whether the booked fare qualifies for credit in a partner programme.
