The addition of these two amazing new aircraft to our offering is a result of that consultation, as they have both the long range capability and the passenger and baggage capacity to fulfil various mission requirements, with interiors like no others available in the region.” David Longridge, President of Boeing Business Jets, added, “We at BBJ are thrilled to see these two new BBJs arrive in Abu Dhabi for service. At Royal Jet, just as they do with their customer base, Boeing Business Jets feels we have a strong and loyal customer, but we know Royal Jet itself has a choice as to which airplanes it buys. We’re honored they’ve chosen the BBJ, and we’re very impressed with their leadership in technology (with the EVS certification, amongst other things) and the innovation seen in the interior. We’re excited to see these airplanes enter reliable, award-winning service with Royal Jet as soon as possible, and we look forward to showcasing them at MEBAA in Dubai.” Rob DiCastri continued, “We are fortunate at Royal Jet to have a very loyal customer base, but we realize we’re not their only choice and so we’re committed to consistently exceeding their already high expectations of us in terms of safety, quality and service. The many partners we’ve been fortunate enough to work with on these aircraft have helped us create something special which will help us do that, and at the same time bring a new and exciting product to the market that we can deliver to various customers utilizing our royal pedigree. Our customers have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of these aircraft, and we have taken numerous bookings already, with the schedule filling up quickly. Utilization is the key to a successful business in this industry, so we are excited to get both of them flying and contributing to our bottom line.
