H ow could travelling on Royal Jet – voted the World’s Leading Private Jet Service by the World Travel Awards for an amazing six years running – possibly get more interesting? Book a flight on one of the new additions to the fleet and you’ll see. The Abu Dhabi-based private luxury flight provider already boasts an impressive array of aircraft to transport passengers to new heights of luxury. Now, with the arrival of the new Bombardier Global 5000 and the revamped Learjet 60 XR, travellers can enjoy Royal Jet’s bespoke, exclusive service in unsurpassed style. The two new vessels are the first instalments of Royal Jet’s fleet upgrade programme, due to be completed in 2020 at a cost of USD $700 million. The Bombardier Global 5000 delivers truly outstanding performance. It’s a super-large category business jet that flies up to 12 passengers at faster speeds than any other business jet in its class. Upgraded to include a full complement of new features and capabilities, the Global 5000 is essentially the ideal office in the sky. Withmore – andmore comfortable – living and working space on-board than any of its peers, the Global 5000 is the perfect setting for relaxed productivity. It has the largest cabin space and widest cross-section in its category, and the versatile seating arrangement and increased head and legroom allow you to stretch out in stylish comfort. The amenities are astounding. The three-zone cabin layout means that you can enjoy your own world of privacy in a true aft stateroom featuring an independent entertainment system and temperature controls. Or, if business is the order of the day, the Global 5000 is fully stocked with a full range of equipment to align with your on-ground office; business aviation’s finest digital cabin electronics systems; and high-calibre, high-speed connectivity. On-board you’ll find two HD monitors, 13 wireless iPods that control cabin functions, two HD touch screens, two iPod cradle bases, two multi-function Blu- ray/CD/DVD/MP3 players, a top-notch audio system, and a colour printer/copier/scanner that connects wirelessly to laptops on-board using the plane’s Wi-Fi internet. And of course, once your meetings are over and it’s time to unwind, you can indulge in the on-demand high-definition entertainment and sport packages. Or maybe even catch up on your rest by reclining on one of three full-length, lie-flat seats, the double bed, or the convertible divan in the aft stateroom. Everything about the Global 5000 is carefully designed to meet all of your functional requirements when working, and cater to your comforts when you want to relax. Royal Jet has taken delivery of its first Global 5000, with another expected as part of the ongoing replacement programme; the new luxury aircraft will take the place of the two Gulfstream 300s in the Royal Jet fleet.
