Bombardier Global Express

Bombardier initially expanded its Global Express line with the Global 5000 aircraft, which was announced in 2001. The aircraft is a shorter-range and slightly smaller version of its predecessor. The company then announced the Global Express XRS in 2003, which featured an increased range and improved cabin. Further improvements, including a new Bombardier Vision avionics suite and redesigned cabin were introduced in 2012, when production began on the Bombardier Global 6000. With a range of 6,000nm (travelling at Mach 0.85 with eight passengers), the Global 6000 aircraft is aimed at customers se

The Bombardier Global Express costs between $9m for a 1999 model aircraft, up to $12m for a 2005 model, according to Aircraft Bluebook’s Summer 2024 data. The exact cost of specific models will be driven by several factors specific to an aircraft serial number, including its maintenance condition and log books.

The Global Express shares several similarities with the earlier CRJ line and the Challenger 600. However, what really stands out about this jet is that it was a pioneer among ultra-long-range business jets, becoming one of the first to provide operators with a comfortable, quick platform for intercontinental travel.
