Comlux adds second Global 8000 to roster
The aircraft and its engines have been enrolled in a manufacturer maintenance programme, giving the owner predictable costs and direct factory support.
The Global 8000 is Bombardier's newest ultra-long-range business jet.

Comlux Aviation has added a second Bombardier Global 8000 to its managed fleet, five months after taking on the first example of the ultra-long-range jet in April 2026.

The aircraft and its engines are enrolled in a manufacturer maintenance programme, giving the owner predictable operating costs and direct support from Bombardier throughout the aircraft's operating life. The arrangement is designed to keep the aircraft available and give the owner confidence that it is maintained to factory standards.

Andrea Zanetto, CEO of Comlux Aviation, says: “When we welcomed the first Global 8000 into our managed fleet just a few months ago, we knew it marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter. Seeing another owner choose Comlux Aviation to manage their Global 8000 so soon afterwards is incredibly rewarding and a testament to the relationships we have built with our clients over the years. We are grateful for their trust and excited to support them with the service, expertise and attention to detail they expect from us.”

The addition brings Comlux Aviation's managed fleet to two Global 8000s, reflecting demand for the newest generation of ultra-long-range business jets. Comlux has provided VIP aviation management, transaction and completion services for more than 20 years, covering aircraft sales and acquisitions, charter management, cabin interiors and maintenance. Comlux Aviation, a subsidiary of the Comlux Group, is headquartered in Switzerland and manages aircraft on behalf of VIP customers alongside an exclusive worldwide network of accredited operators.
