[Virtual Presenter] Lets start with Commercial Airlines. DELAG was the world's first airline, founded in 1909 with government assistance. It operated airships manufactured by the Zeppelin Corporation, revolutionizing the way we travel, laying the groundwork for today's commercial airlines. Now, commercial airlines offer convenient and affordable ways of travelling by air. Whether travelling for business or pleasure, or merely making a connection, commercial airlines serve people from all over the world. Not only do these airlines offer a variety of services to passengers, but they also provide a wide range of options, from economy to luxury, for travellers..

[Audio] The Airboat Line was the world's first scheduled passenger air service, beginning in Florida in January 1914. It offered two flights daily between St Petersburg and Tampa, with a fare of $5 per person and $5 per 100 pounds of freight. Despite only lasting four months, it was a major milestone in the development of commercial airlines, making air travel accessible to many..

[Audio] Going back to 1909, DELAG became the world's first airline as they used zeppelins for transportation. After that, KLM was established in 1919, followed by Qantas Airways in 1920. Delta Airlines was established in 1924, making them the oldest airline in the United States. Thanks to the commercial airlines, the world has seen an evolution in the way we travel and the goods and services that are transported. People no longer need to worry about being far apart from their families and friends as they can explore the world with relative ease. These airlines have revolutionized the way we travel the world..

[Audio] For our presentation, the fourth slide is about the difference between commercial and charter airline services. Commercial airlines are the most common and cost-effective means of travel. Their routes, dates and times are pre-determined. In comparison, charter airlines typically use a separate terminal at major airports. These airlines provide seasonal flights to places not accessible by commercial airlines, and their tickets are sold to tour agencies. Moreover, some of them utilize small and less comfortable aircraft for less popular routes..

[Audio] Delag, founded in 1909 with government assistance and utilizing airships manufactured by The Zeppelin Corporation, was the world's first airline. It was a major step in air travel history, giving its passengers luxury and comfort that had not been experienced before. Instead of having to follow the schedules and set routes of a commercial airline, Delag allowed customers to rent a private flight, leaving and arriving according to the date and time of their choice. This created countless opportunities for air travel, providing comfort and adaptability that we continue to strive for..

[Audio] In 1909, with government assistance, Delag was founded as the world's first airline. It used airships manufactured by The Zeppelin Corporation. Nowadays, people and companies have the option of hiring private aircraft for their journeys instead of using big commercial airlines. Chartering a private plane offers passengers distinctive advantages such as freedom, luxury, personalised in-flight service and, of course, privacy. On a chartered aircraft, you have complete control over the flight. You determine when to depart, which airport to take off from and which airline staff to hire. These airports, called Fixed Base Operators, usually let you park your car close to the chartered aircraft, making your departure even simpler. Removing the stress from flying, hiring a private plane provides an experience that is both exclusive and comfortable..

[Audio] I hope you have a better understanding of the brief history of aviation and the airline industry now that you have learned about commercial airlines and the aviation industry trends. It's been a pleasure teaching you and I hope you have enjoyed the journey in the past as much as I have. Thank you for your attention and active participation..
