The Bombardier Global 7500 is the flagship of Bombardier’s ultra-long-range business jet family, introduced as a clean-sheet design to redefine private aviation. Originally announced as the Global 7000 in 2010, the program underwent significant wing redesigns before its first flight on November 4, 2016. After extensive testing, the aircraft received certification in late 2018 and entered service in December 2018, marking a major leap from the Global 6000 platform with a new transonic wing and advanced fly-by-wire architecture.
Classified as an ultra-long-range business jet, the Global 7500 is powered by two GE Passport turbofan engines, each producing 18,920 pounds of thrust, enabling a top speed of Mach 0.925 and a typical cruise speed of Mach 0.85. The aircraft offers an exceptional range of 7,700 nautical miles, allowing nonstop missions such as New York to Hong Kong or Los Angeles to Sydney. It operates at a service ceiling of 51,000 feet, with a takeoff distance of approximately 5,800 feet and a landing distance near 2,500 feet. Maximum takeoff weight is 114,850 pounds, supported by a fuel capacity exceeding 51,000 pounds.
The cabin is the largest in its class, measuring 54 ft 5 in in length, 8 ft in width, and 6 ft 2 in in height, providing 2,637 cu ft of volume. Configured for up to 19 passengers, the interior features four distinct living zones, including a club suite, conference suite, entertainment lounge, and a private aft suite with a full bed and optional shower. A fully equipped galley, dedicated crew rest area, and advanced cabin management system ensure comfort and productivity on long-haul flights. Bombardier’s Nuage seating and ultra-low cabin altitude further enhance passenger well-being.
For operators, the Global 7500 delivers unmatched range, speed, and cabin flexibility, positioning it as the premier choice for intercontinental travel where luxury and performance are non-negotiable. Its combination of cutting-edge technology and bespoke interior options makes it a benchmark in the ultra-long-range category.
