Based in Vienna, Austria. From its home base it typically flies legs such as Vienna–Munich · Vienna–Olbia. Positioning from the home region is faster and cheaper; departures from another city add a ferry leg.

Canada's Bombardier is one of the 'big three' business-jet makers. Two current families: Challenger (the 3500 in super-midsize, the 650 in large) and the flagship Global 5500/6500/7500/8000 line with up to 14,800 km of range. Signature traits are wide cabins (the Challenger 3500 has the widest in class, 2.19 m) and the Smooth Flĕx wing on the Global 7500.

The Challenger 604/605/650 is one of the most numerous large jets: over 1,100 built, with fleet dispatch reliability above 99.7%. Bombardier is actively expanding its own service network — major centres in London, Paris, Singapore and Dubai cover the CIS and Central Asia. The GE CF34 engines on the Challenger are serviced under the fixed-rate OnPoint programme. Send us a request — we'll prepare options, calculate running costs and analyse the best fit for your task.

The Challenger 650 is the liquidity champion in the large class: five-year-old aircraft sell for $22–26M against a $33M list, with exposure rarely over 90 days. The Global 7500, with a waiting list for new jets, sells pre-owned at almost no discount — $60–70M. Early Global Express XRS hold value less well ($10–15M), where costly maintenance checks await the buyer.

For 3–5-hour routes (Geneva–Istanbul, London–Dubai) the Challenger 3500 is optimal — 10 seats and 6,300 km. The Challenger 650 adds space and takes 12 passengers over 7,400 km. Intercontinental tasks are Global territory: the 6500 covers 12,200 km, and the 7500 links Europe with North America nonstop — 14,260 km with a four-zone cabin.

This is the class of nonstop intercontinental flights: London–Los Angeles, Geneva–New York, Dubai–Sydney with one stop. A range of 9,600–14,800 km saves 3–5 hours per connection and removes dependence on intermediate countries. Cabins of three or four zones with a bedroom, shower and office turn a 12-hour flight into a full working day or a night's sleep.

Capacity is 12–19 passengers with sleeping berths for 6–10. Range: Global 5500 10,600 km, G550 12,500 km, Falcon 8X 11,950 km, G650ER 13,890 km, Global 7500 14,260 km, G700 14,350 km, Global 8000 14,800 km. Cruise M0.85–0.925; the Global 8000 reaches M0.94 — faster than any production civil aircraft.

From the ultra-large class it is set apart by 3,000–6,000 km more range and modern airframes with low cabin altitude (equivalent to 900–1,200 m at cruise). ACJ/BBJ business liners give two or three times the floor area, but need long runways, cost more to maintain and are slower. The formula: regular nonstop 10+ hours for a small group — this class; a 20+-person residence cabin — a liner.

Rates are $10,000–16,000 per hour: the G550 and Global 5000 near the lower bound, the G650ER, G700 and Global 7500 near the upper. A London–Los Angeles flight comes to $150–220K, Dubai–Tokyo $70–100K. The price includes three or four crew, sleeping-cabin prep and restaurant catering; a crew change on ultra-long legs is built into the estimate in advance.

The standard is 24–48 hours before departure: that is enough to confirm the aircraft, crew and slots. For regular clients we arrange a domestic flight from 4–6 hours. International routes need 48–72 hours: overflight permits for some countries take 3–5 working days. On peak dates — Christmas, summer holidays, major forums — aircraft are booked out 2–3 weeks ahead, so plan early.

An empty leg is the ferry of an empty aircraft to its next job or home to base. Such segments sell at a 30–75% discount to the usual price: a flight that would cost $25K can come to $8–12K. The limits: the date and route are fixed to the aircraft's schedule, and if the main booking is cancelled the flight may shift. We publish current empty legs weekly — watch the listings.
