FAI rent‑a‑jet has expanded its fleet with a Bombardier Global 6000, marking its sixth Global Express aircraft and bringing the total fleet to 17 business jets. The aircraft, formerly operated by VistaJet and a corporate owner, retains a metallic exterior livery and an elegant interior with handmade cabinetry and cream leather seating.
The aircraft has a large galley and three-zone cabin layout accommodating up to 14 passengers. With a 6,000nm range, it is suitable for long-haul flights. The Global 6000 will be available for charter from February 2026 and has not previously been used in commercial charter.
“We are thrilled to add this exceptional Global 6000 to our fleet, which we believe will be popular with our charter clients,” says Siegfried Axtmann, FAI’s founder and chairman. “The acquisition was completed in just six weeks, including a pre-purchase inspection at BAS in Singapore.”
FAI has operated Global aircraft since 2010. In 2025, the company’s five Global Express aircraft flew more than 5,500 hours, achieving an 85 per cent occupancy rate.
