Jet Aviation supports first Asia Pacific ACJ TwoTwenty delivery
The first Asia-based delivery brings lounge-style space, long-range capability and local Jet Aviation support to regional operators.
The ACJ TwoTwenty offers more of a private lounge than a traditional business jet cabin.

Deliveries of the ACJ TwoTwenty have begun in the Asia Pacific region, with the first aircraft in the region set to be managed and maintained by Jet Aviation once it enters service.

The aircraft is the fourth ACJ TwoTwenty to enter service worldwide and the first to be delivered in Asia. The first three aircraft were delivered to customers in the Middle East between 2023 and 2025.

The latest aircraft is also the first ACJ TwoTwenty delivered under a turnkey contract, with the cabin outfitting completed before delivery under Airbus Corporate Jets’ cabin project management programme. Comlux America completed the aircraft in Indianapolis before handover.

Jet Aviation said its Singapore facility became part of the Airbus Corporate Jets service centre network in March 2025, giving regional customers access to authorised maintenance, refurbishment and warranty services.

Chadi Saade, president of Airbus Corporate Jets, says: “We are delighted that the ACJ TwoTwenty is making its debut in Asia, carving out a new market segment, the ‘Xtra Large Bizjet’. By combining its intercontinental range and cabin space with the local technical expertise of Jet Aviation Singapore, we are delivering a complete ecosystem.”

He adds: “Our customers in Asia will now benefit from the most advanced corporate jet on the market, backed by the peace of mind that comes from a certified local service partner.”

The ACJ TwoTwenty offers up to 5,650nm of range and can operate from airports including Seletar in Singapore while carrying a full fuel load. Airbus said the aircraft can connect destinations including Singapore and Auckland, Hong Kong and Anchorage, and Jakarta and Ankara nonstop.

The aircraft is also capable of operating with up to a 50% blend of sustainable aviation fuel.
