Bombardier — Private Jet
Explore the Global 7500's range on the map →The Bombardier Global 7500 can fly up to 7,700 nautical miles (14,260 km) as a ferry flight with no payload. With a full load of passengers and cargo, the range drops to approximately 6,600 nm (12,223 km). At its cruise speed of 513 kt, that's about 15h 1m of non-stop flying at ferry weight, or 12h 52m fully loaded.
The Bombardier Global 7500 is the largest and longest-range purpose-built business jet in production - 7,700 nautical miles of range places it in the rare company of aircraft capable of New York–Singapore or Los Angeles–Dubai nonstop. Bombardier describes the cabin in terms of distinct "living spaces" rather than seat rows: a full-size kitchen with four-burner stove, a boardroom, a private stateroom with a true bed (not a fold-flat seat), and a lounge. On a 16-hour flight, this distinction between a recliner and an actual bedroom matters measurably.
The Global 7500's GE Passport engines, developed specifically for the aircraft, are the most fuel-efficient in the ultra-long-range category. Their high bypass ratio and advanced combustor design give the aircraft a specific fuel consumption that enables the 7,700 nm range without the weight penalty of excessive fuel reserves. The wing, designed using aerodynamic optimization tools that weren't available to earlier Bombardier programs, achieves a lift-to-drag ratio at cruise that Bombardier says exceeds any previous business jet design.
Fractional ownership operators and charter companies deploy the Global 7500 for routes that previously required commercial connections: senior executives flying from New York to Singapore nonstop for a board meeting, or a production company relocating talent between Los Angeles and Tokyo without the itinerary constraints of scheduled service. The aircraft's market positioning is unapologetically at the very top of private aviation, competing directly with the Gulfstream G700 and, less directly, with the A319neo-based corporate jets that very large organizations sometimes operate.
