BOMBARDIER
GLOBAL 7500

With competitors Gulfstream launching larger aircraft models, Bombardier's reply was the Global 7500, their first four zone Ultra Long Range Jet with 2 enclosed private suites (reception, dining, rear enclosed stateroom and rear bedroom), and first impressions don’t disappoint.

​

It has the same cabin dimensions as the Global 6500 series, height and width wise, but the real difference is the length of the cabin - 16.6 metres which is an additional 1.9 metres in length, or in other words, having the additional bedroom increasing the overall seating capability to up to 19 passengers, in certain circumstances.

​

Onboard the aircraft has a forward lavatory, crew rest area and galley, all of which is enclosed from the living areas. It is really designed for long range missions, and with an advertised blistering range of 14,200 km, there really aren’t many places the aircraft can't reach directly (often doing trips such as London to Hawaii).

​

You can see this is the response to the Gulfstream G650, with bigger cabin and range. For ultra long missions the Global 7500 will definitely be the better option, but in the same regard as Gulfstream & Falcon models, many of these manufacturers are building aircraft to go further and faster, when in reality are such trips in high demand? Don’t get us wrong, we love the aircraft and the additional living zone is a sensible idea, but for smaller trips, even transatlantic, there are others just as suitable and potentially significantly lower in cost.
