UAE operator Falcon Luxe has added a Bombardier Global 7500 to its charter fleet. With a range over 14,000km and non-stop endurance of up to 17 hours, the Global 7500 connects city pairs such as Dubai to Dulles and Paris to Tokyo. It cruises at up to Mach 0.94 and 51,000ft, allowing faster flight times and lower fuel burn.

The cabin seats up to 18 passengers and includes a permanent double bed, en-suite shower and 55-inch 4K TV with a seat-centric audio system. A clean air system and ultra-low cabin altitude are designed to prioritise wellbeing. The aircraft also features an Environmental Product Declaration, highlighting fuel efficiency and emissions data.

Alex Group Investments founder and chairman Mr Sultan Rashit Abdulla Rashit Al Shene says: “We are proud of this landmark moment with the Bombardier Global 7500 as we grow our fleet to meet the growing demand for ultra-long-range solutions. Falcon is committed to a sustainable aviation future and supporting the global business industry with this expansion. Our enhanced product offering on board the Global 7500 also guarantees that our guests, whether business or leisure travellers, are offered the finest and most seamless journey.”

Falcon aims to operate a fleet of more than 50 private jets by the end of 2026.
