Nomad Gulfstream G650ER enters charter service
Just three weeks after the introduction of the G650ER, Nomad can already look back on several seamless Atlantic crossings and more charter hours performed than expected.
The G650ER went on the Swiss AOC at the beginning of May.

Nomad Aviation has successfully phased in an almost brand-new Gulfstream G650ER to its charter fleet. The aircraft joined on the Swiss AOC on 1 May.

A stylishly laid out cabin is fitted with 14 luxury passenger seats through three living areas, including eight business seats in a four-place double club configuration and six divan seats. For maximum connectivity and entertainment, the aircraft features high speed Ku-band internet, which is accessible via dedicated large iPads or from passengers’ own devices. With a maximum range of 7,500nm, Nomad says this aircraft connects cities once considered unreachable by private jets.

“Just three weeks after the introduction of this aircraft we can already look back on several seamless Atlantic crossings and a much higher number of charter hours performed than expected,” says Christoph Thurnherr, vice president aircraft management and charter sales. “The Switzerland based G650ER has already created enormous interest and has come just in time for the busy spring and upcoming summer season. We are very pleased to have added the second Gulfstream G650ER to our fleet and take pride in delivering a full range of VIP charter options, the highest level of service and equipment; and this particular aircraft supports this mission perfectly well.”

CEO Thomas Köhli adds: “This addition to our fleet supports Nomad Aviation’s success story and is a result of the hard work put in by our entire team. The G650ER reinforces Nomad’s presence in the VIP charter segment and ideally complements its three-strong charter fleet comprising a Gulfstream G450, a Bombardier Global 5000 and an Airbus ACJ319.”
