The aircraft will feature an industry-leading range of 8,000 nautical miles and an unequaled top speed of Mach 0.94, unlocking more city pairs than ever before including Dubai-Houston, Singapore-Los Angeles, London-Perth and many others. With four true living spaces and a separate crew rest area, the Global 8000 aircraft will be capable of flying up to 8,000 nautical miles non-stop. The discerning business jet will also feature the most generous cabin size in its class along with the industry’s heathiest cabins.
This incredible business aircraft will also deliver in terms of its in-flight experience. The luxurious cabin will incorporate revolutionary features introduced on the Global 7500 aircraft that dramatically improve passenger comfort including an available Principal Suite with a full-size bed and a stand-up shower in the En-suite. Revolutionary cabin advancements will also include entertainment control and connectivity, the intuitive nice Touch CMS and OLED touch dial and Bombardier’s l’Opéra directional audio sound system to ensure passengers receive an unrivalled cabin experience.
In anticipation of the planned entry-into-service of the Global 8000 business jet, an upgrade is currently available for purchase by existing Global 7500 aircraft clients through one of Bombardier’s aircraft service centres. Benefits of the upgrade will include improving the aircraft’s top speed, increasing its range and providing passengers with exceptionally low cabin altitudes.
