JAMAICA, N.Y., Nov. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- North American Airlines, a subsidiary of Global Aviation Holdings, has entered into a letter of intent with MLW Air to lease and operate an all-Business Class Boeing 767-200 aircraft equipped with 100 luxurious seats, to be available early in 2010.

"This aircraft has flown prime ministers, sports teams, corporate customers, rock bands and movie stars in premium comfort," said Jeff Sanborn, Global Aviation Holdings' chief marketing officer. "North American Airlines is proud to operate this unique aircraft and provide our customers an all-Business Class option for large group travel."



The wide-body aircraft features comfortable 2-2-2 fully reclining seating with 60 inches of pitch. Customized in 2007 with the Nu-look Ergo interior, extra-large bin space, LCD television screens and in-seat power for laptops, the aircraft has a 10-hour range and extended twin engine operations (ETOPS) capability.



"MLW Air designed this product from scratch to offer guests maximum luxury, while providing large groups with a cost per seat much lower than they'll find on corporate aircraft charters," said Martin Woodall, President of MLW Air, the owner of the aircraft. "We are excited to partner with North American Airlines to further enhance the global availability of the MLW Air luxury Boeing 767 aircraft."



North American Airlines' recent customer list includes the Barack Obama Presidential campaign, the Hillary Clinton Presidential Primary campaign, White House media charters, corporations and several well known music groups and television personalities.
