Bombardier has celebrated the delivery of the first Global 8000 aircraft to fleet launch customer NetJets, a valued longtime customer and the world leader in private aviation. The delivery took place at Bombardier's Laurent Beaudoin Completion Centre in the presence of employees, NetJets leadership, and special guests. With its range of 8,000 NM (16.75 hours) and a top speed of Mach 0.95 (627 miles per hour) (3), the Bombardier Global 8000 business jet expands route options, while allowing NetJets customers to reach their destinations faster and in greater comfort than ever before.
With this most recent addition, NetJets plans to build a 24 -strong fleet of Global 8000 aircraft and will be working with Bombardier to upgrade its entire in-service Global 7500 fleet to Global 8000 jets. NetJets could subsequently grow its fleet through a series of options that could be exercised progressively over the coming years (1).
"The Global 8000 is redefining the business aviation landscape with its unmatched performance, signature smooth ride and innovative design, and we are thrilled to be providing our longtime, valued partner NetJets with its first Global 8000 aircraft," said Éric Martel, President and CEO, Bombardier. "With this landmark first delivery, NetJets' clients will now be able to experience the revolutionary performance attributes and unmatched luxury the Global 8000 delivers – the most impressive business jet in the skies."
"Our long-standing partnership with Bombardier has been built on a shared vision of excellence and innovation in business aviation," said Patrick Gallagher, President, NetJets Aviation. "The Global 8000 is the ultimate expression of that partnership, and we are proud to be the first to bring this remarkable aircraft to our fleet. The range and features of the Global 8000 aircraft perfectly align with NetJets' commitment to offering safety, service, and access at an extraordinary level and empowering owners to do more and miss less."
The Global 8000 is the only true four-zone business jet to offer a range of 8,000 NM (16.75 hours), enabling nonstop travel between more city pairs than ever before. In addition to its long-range capabilities, the aircraft remains uniquely agile, with takeoff and landing performance comparable to that of a light jet. Its advanced wing design featuring leading-edge slats enable passengers to land at up to 30% more airports – the equivalent of more than 2,000 destinations – than its closest rival.
Inside , the Global 8000 aircraft sets an extremely high bar in terms of luxury and comfort. The discerning business jet features the longest seated length in its class along with signature cabin features such as Bombardier's Pur Air System, Soleil circadian lighting system and the lowest cabin altitude in production, all designed to maximize passenger comfort and prevent the effects of jet lag – ensuring passengers arrive at their destinations rested and refreshed.
