Jet Aviation announces that it has added a brand new Gulfstream G550 to its EMEA & Asia charter fleet. The aircraft, available for charter, has already conducted several long haul chartered flights.
The new aircraft, stationed in Switzerland, is fully managed by Jet Aviation and operates under its Swiss Air Operators Certificate. The aircraft offers ample space for 14 passengers to be seated comfortably during the day. At night, the seating can be adjusted to create five sleeping berths. The ultra-long-range jet has an endurance of close to 14 hours.
"With a G550 based in Switzerland, as well as another G550 in Asia, we are able to offer long-range aircraft to charter customers both in Europe and in Asia," says Martin Bernegger, senior vice president of Jet Aviation's charter division in EMEA & Asia. "This enables us to provide more flexibility to our customers, as we can now combine individual flights and increase our flying capacity in this very important segment," he adds.
