Info (SP):Para las rutas Aeroportuarias (60 & 66) Global siempre ha realizado compras excepcionales para cubrir dichas rutas. Para ello, desde los tiempos de Salcai, se han utilizado autobuses turísticos que han sido adaptados para el servicio interurbano. Tras la venta de las unidades Volvo Irizar PB, Global realizo la que se seria su ultima compra especifica para las rutas aeroportuarias. El increíble diseño de la gama PB gusto tanto que se decidio adquirir de nuevo, aun que esta vez serian motorizadas con Scania. En total se adquirieron 5 unidades que fueron originalmente decoradas con un avión a cada lado para representar las rutas. Sin embargo, con las nuevas normativas de accesibilidad y contaminación hubo que hacer algunos cambios y puestos que estas unidades contaminaban bastante y tenían un difícil acceso para personas con movilidad reducida se decidio sustituirlas en 2017. En su lugar se introdujeron los vehiculos Noge y estas 5 fueron compradas por la compañía Bus Leader, donde continuan prestando servicio privado en el sur de Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura y Lanzarote.

Info (EN): For airport routes (60 & 66), Global always made exceptional purchases. For this, since the times of Salcai, tourist coaches were destined to cover these routes. After selling the Volvo PB units, Global purchased their very last lot of coaches to cover Airport routes. The incredible design of the PB range was so well received it was purchased once more, although in this occasion they would be powered by Scania and not by Volvo. A total of 5 vehicles were purchased which were originally decorated with a distinctive aeroplane painted on each side of the vehicle to represent the routes. However with a change in policies regarding accessibility and contamination there were several changes that had to be made and since these vehicles had difficult access and were quite polluting it was decided they would be substituted in 2017. Instead the new Noge vehicles would be introduced and these 5 units were sold to Bus Leader where they continue to serve as tourist coaches in the south of Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura
