NetJets to become launch customer for Bombardier Global 8000

• New firm order for four Global 8000 aircraft valued at $312 million dollars based on 2022 list prices
• NetJets will operate a fleet of 24 Global 8000 aircraft, which includes the new firm order for four Global 8000 jets; eight conversions of Bombardier aircraft previously ordered; and aircraft already on order or in service
• Bombardier’s new Global 8000 aircraft stands alone as the world’s fastest and longest-range purpose-built business jet, crafted with the industry’s smoothest ride, largest cabin, lowest cabin altitude and a top speed of Mach 0.94

The fleet launch customer for the Global 8000 aircraft has been revealed by Bombardier to be NetJets, a longtime valued customer and a global leader in private aviation. With a new firm order for four Worldwide 8000 aircraft worth $312 million and the conversion of eight existing contracts for Bombardier goods, NetJets is expanding its already sizable global fleet of more than 850 aircraft (and it’s continuously growing).

This deal adds to the order and operational inventory of Global 7500 aircraft. In addition to working with Bombardier to upgrade the whole fleet of in-service Global 7500 aircraft to Global 8000 planes when they start taking receipt of their new flagship aircraft, NetJets will develop a 24-strong fleet of the performance-leading Global 8000 aircraft.

Introduced earlier this year at EBACE in Geneva, Bombardier’s flagship for a new era features an industry-leading range of 8,000 nautical miles and an unbeaten top speed of Mach 0.94.

The Global 8000 aircraft delivers when it comes to in-flight experience. The cabin incorporates the revolutionary features introduced on the Global 7500 aircraft that dramatically improve passenger comfort. The aircraft also features the innovative Nuage seat, with the first-ever zero gravity position in a business jet, allowing NetJets Owners to arrive at their destinations revitalized and refreshed.

An exemplary commitment to detail is assured on the new Global 8000 aircraft, including an available Principal Suite with a full-size bed. Revolutionary cabin entertainment control and connectivity, the intuitive nice Touch CMS and OLED touch dial, Bombardier’s l’Opéra directional audio sound system and available 4K monitor, also ensure passengers will receive an unrivalled cabin experience.

Performance-wise, the new Global 8000 aircraft can efficiently transport NetJets Owners to a wide variety of destinations both faster and farther than ever before. With its exceptional class-leading range and short-field performance, even more exclusive city pairs are now achievable, including Dubai-Houston, Singapore-Los Angeles, London-Perth, and many others.
