Bombardier Global 7500
On 7 November 2018, Bombardier Business Aircraft’s flagship obtained FAA certification. The ultra-long-range business jet, originally called Global 7000, was renamed Global 7500 as it exceeded expectations on multiple sides. Indeed, the Global 7500 revolutionises business aviation: not only is it the largest business jet in the world, it is also the business aircraft with the longest range, 14,260 km to be precise.

History
High performance and low emissions also characterise this luxurious, flying home, reaching a top speed of 956 km/h. No wonder it was nicknamed “The Performer”. Extraordinarily spacious and smartly designed, its customisable cabin offers four living spaces with exquisite interiors tailored to its guests’ preferences and a separate resting area for the crew, for optimal privacy. It is the only business jet offering such comfort, enhanced by the revolutionary Nuage seat and its XXL windows, promising spectacular aerial views.
We look forward to organising bespoke private flights for routes such as Singapore to San Francisco or New York to Hong Kong, on board the ultra-long-range jet reshaping the business aviation landscape.

Where the Bombardier Global 7500 flies most
Half of all Global 7500 charter flights worldwide started or ended in Europe, the Middle East or North Africa in 2025. In this region, London leads with 1,153 movements, ahead of Paris (634) and Dubai (490).
Long-haul trips define the type. In the region, 47% of its flights covered more than 3,000 km. London to New York was the busiest intercontinental route with 57 flights, and London to Dubai followed with 39. Two Gulf cities, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, rank in the top 4. In Dubai, 420 of the 490 movements used Al Maktoum International (DWC) rather than Dubai International.
The aircraft also flies shorter legs. About 20% of its flights in the region covered less than 500 km. London to Paris was the most common of these short trips, with 71 flights. Nice is the most seasonal city on the list, with 63% of its Global 7500 movements between June and September.

The figures cover take-offs and landings on commercial charter flights (Part 135 / CAT) in 2025, in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. They include every version that shares the aircraft's type code, and a city needs at least 20 movements to be ranked.
Top Cities in 2025
For a long-haul trip, start with London or private flights to and from Dubai, two of the busiest cities for this aircraft. Each page gives prices and airport options. Abu Dhabi is worth a look for Gulf departures.
