The Boeing BBJ is a VIP airliner based on the 737, offering a wide stand up cabin that can be fitted out as a private apartment in the sky. With auxiliary fuel tanks it reaches about 6,000 nautical miles.
The BBJ pairs 737 cabin space with long range, giving room for private suites, dining and conference areas. Range depends on the number of auxiliary fuel tanks fitted and the cabin weight, and is about 6,000 nautical miles on typical VIP aircraft.
It suits larger groups and corporate parties that need airliner space across long sectors. VIP interiors and fuel fit differ widely between aircraft, so confirm the cabin and range of the tail offered on your dates.
Charter is quoted by the trip rather than the hour. A firm quote reflects the actual routing, any repositioning of the aircraft, landing and handling fees, crew expenses, applicable taxes, and the specific aircraft offered on your dates. Treat the hourly band above as a planning guide only and confirm the all in price before you book.
Ask whether you are dealing with the operator that holds the air operator certificate for the aircraft or with a broker arranging the flight on your behalf. Both can serve you well, but you should know which one you are talking to and who carries the operational responsibility.
Confirm the operator safety rating and insurance, the tail number, age and cabin configuration of the actual aircraft on offer, and exactly what the quote includes. A reputable partner will answer all of this in writing before you commit. Send us your dates and we will return a clear comparison.
