Laker Airways Limited was a British airline founded by Freddie Laker in 1966. It was originally a charter airline flying passengers and cargo worldwide. Its head office was located at Gatwick Airport in Crawley, England. It became the second long-haul, low-cost airline in September 1977, operating low-fare scheduled services between London Gatwick and New York (after pioneering Icelandic low-cost carrier Loftleiðir). In the early 1980s, the company went into bankruptcy during the recession, operating its last flight on 5 February 1982.
