Vistajet will receive four Global Express XRS aircraft and two Challenger 605 jets from Bombardier under a $277m order announced by Bombardier at the Farnborough Air Show.
VistaJet founder and chairman Thomas Flohr said that the company now has major customers in the Middle East, Africa, Russia / CIS and the Far East that require longer-haul aircraft with state-of-the-art cabins.
“Challenger and Global business jets are ideal to meet the needs of our passengers in these regions,” he said.
Including the order, the VistaJet fleet comprises over 30 medium-to-ultra-long-range jets with an average age of less than two years.
The current fleet includes Learjet 40 XR, Learjet 60 XR, Challenger 300, Challenger 604, Challenger 605, Challenger 850 and Global Express XRS jets.
