Flyinggroup Middle East has added a Bombardier Global 6000 to its charter fleet, making the aircraft available for hire from March 2025. The ultra-long-range jet, operated by the group’s Maltese entity Hyperion Aviation, can fly up to 6,000 nautical miles at speeds of Mach 0.88.

The aircraft is configured for 13 passengers and features a spacious cabin with a galley, lounge and dining area, a private office or bedroom and two VIP lavatories. Onboard entertainment includes two 24-inch HD monitors and wi-fi connectivity.

“We are confident that the Global 6000 will quickly become a popular choice in the rapidly growing charter sector of the Middle East,” says Guy Farnfield, managing director at Flyinggroup Middle East and Hyperion Aviation. “This aircraft is perfectly suited for corporations, families and government delegates looking to travel in privacy, luxury and safety.”

Flyinggroup Middle East sees the jet as a step forward in meeting demand for high-end travel. The aircraft joins a fleet of 20 charter aircraft available across Europe and the Middle East, including models from Cessna, Pilatus, Dassault and Bombardier.
