Boeing Business Jet
“This heavy aircraft was introduced in 1996 by Boeing. Since then, it has sold 91 of the large-cabin aircraft. Many of the 75-plus BBJ that are currently in service belong to
heads of state in the Middle East.
This 807-square-foot interior aircraft can be shaped into a flying home. With room for up to 20 passengers, why not throw your birthday party
up there!

Gulfstream V
“The Gulfstream V is the largest and latest development of the Gulfstream line of corporate transports, designed to fly intercontinental distances. It competes with Bombardier’s Global Express, the BBJ and Airbus A319CJ.
The Gulfstream V is recognized as
the safest, most reliable, most comfortable, high performance,
ultra-long range business aircraft in the world. With an astonishing non-stop range of 6, 500 nautical miles,
the Gulfstream V offers unparalleled performance and unprecedented comfort - even at 51, 000 feet.
With speeds up to Mach. 87,
the Gulfstream V can reach
any destination in the world
in record time.

Bombardier Challenger 604
“At its introduction, the Challenger 604 set new standards in general aviation for comfort, low cabin noise levels, and unprecedented cabin space.
The Challenger 604 makes lengthy trips comfortable and enjoyable with room for 9 to 10 passengers. Amenities include a full service galley, large comfortable leather seating,
in-flight accessible baggage and a spacious private lavatory.
Here’s one private flight providers among many that can help you book your next trip to the Fiji Islands.

4)
Citation X
“The Citation X "midsize aircraft" will climb to 43, 000 feet in just 30 minutes at its maximum take off weight, lifting you swiftly to transcontinental and transatlantic crossing altitudes.
In addition, the Citation X is certified to fly as high as 51, 000 feet - where fuel efficiency is optimized and airline traffic is nonexistent. The full-length stand-up aisle stretches 24 feet.
Each Citation X interior is unique
and individually outfitted to suit the
specific requirements of the owner.”
5)
Embraer Legacy
“The Legacy encompasses comfort. Can seat 13 passengers in a cabin only slightly smaller than that of a Gulfstream G500. Shareowners and their passengers experience three
different seating areas: forward club seating; center dining and meeting table; and a semi-private aft cabin which includes a divan. In addition,
the Legacy is also equipped with
the latest in avionics technology for
global navigation.
While national charter operators
have yet to add the Embraer
Legacy to their fleets, industry professionals believe the price
and performance capabilities of
the Brazilian aircraft will make
this a favorite in the near future.”
6)
Bombardier Learjet 60
“The Learjet 60 is a midsize aircraft that can fly across the country nonstop, while passengers enjoy generous space and comfort.
There is an exceptional amount of room for baggage. The combination
of range, speed, and comfort has made the Learjet 60 one of the
world’s most popular midsize jets.
Learjet 60 features state-of-the-art safety equipment and avionics including TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance), GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning) and Windshear Detection Systems.
”
7)
Citation V
“The Citation V is one of the fastest, most spacious light jets. At 17 feet long, the cabin is the largest in the light jet category, more than adequate for 7 passengers to stretch out and relax. Baggage capacity at 67 cubic feet ranks among the largest in the light jet category. The aircraft travels
at a high-speed cruise of 489 mph up
to 41, 000 feet while the expanded payload at full fuel gives it a broader range of 2, 145 statute miles.
”
8)
Beech Jet 400A
“The BeechJet 400A is a superb example of traditional Beech leadership in quality, reliability, and support. It is clearly superior to its major competitor in speed, cabin comfort, and fuel efficiency.
Its supercritical type swept-wing and powerful turbofan engines allow a
fully loaded 400A to climb directly to 43, 000 feet and to cruise at 449knots with incredible fuel efficiency. As a productive business tool, the BeechJet 400A is unmatched
in its class.
”
9)
Hawker 800XP
“The Hawker800XP retains all the basic leadership advantages of its distinguished predecessor, the Hawker 800 and adds dramatic new dimensions in overall performance. Cruise speeds have been increased by as much as 23 percent. Range has been extended by up to 35 percent and the takeoff field lengths have
been significantly shortened for all range and payload combinations.
The 800Xp also claims the title
to the largest cabin of its midsize competitors with almost 40 percent more space than that of its
nearest competitor.”
10)
Lear Jet 31A
“The popular Learjet 31A is the performance and flexibility leader in its class. It can operate with full seating and maximum fuel capacity from runways shorter than 3, 500 ft and an unsurpassed ability to climb to 43, 000 ft in 20 minutes. It offers freedom from turbulence as well as airport and airspace congestion.
Flying faster than any aircraft in its class, the Learjet 31A routinely flies at 45, 000 to 47, 000 ft while offering the lowest operating cost per nautical mile of any transport category business jet.”
