Benelux operator ASL Group is celebrating further fleet expansion, having recently welcomed three new business jets to its fleet. These newcomers illustrate the company’s continuous growth since it started operations in 1997. It continues to invest in the future and expects further opportunities to arise this year.

“After a successful 2022, we are optimistic about the year ahead. We are excited to have welcomed the largest private jet registered in the Benelux, a Bombardier Global 6500,” says CEO Philippe Bodson.

With its open living spaces, refined interior design, comfort and intercontinental range, the Global 6500 is the most luxurious aircraft in ASL’s fleet. Accommodating up to 13 passengers, it has a cruise speed of 600 kts and a range of up to 6,600 nm.

A Falcon 900EX has also been added to the fleet, offering a high class cabin with excellent onboard service. With seating for up to 14 passengers, it has a cruise speed of 465 kts and a range up to 4,200 nm.

Another Cessna Citation XLS has arrived too, bringing the total number of this type in the ASL fleet to seven. The XLS offers opportunities for European-wide charter flights. Accommodating up to eight passengers, it has a cruise speed of 440 kts and a range of up to 1,700 nm.
