“We are very pleased to enhance our private jet charter offering in the Greater Los Angeles area with the addition of this factory-new Challenger 350,” says president Casey Miller. “Our goal is to make the acquisition, management, and charter process exceptionally smooth for our client-owners so that they can enjoy the ownership experience with peace of mind from start to finish.”

Senior VP of worldwide sales and marketing for Bombardier Peter Likoray adds: “We were pleased to work with Latitude 33 in adding the exceptional Challenger 350 aircraft to its fleet. The jet offers the best-equipped cockpit and leading connectivity in its class, making it the perfect choice for discerning customers and operators worldwide.”

The CL350 has a range of 3,200 nm and offers a direct climb to 43,000 feet to stay clear of weather and traffic, as well as a wide cabin, flat floor, unlimited access to baggage, a smooth ride and low direct operating costs.
