Sojitz Corporation (Sojitz) has added two of Bombardier’s new Global 7500 jets to its charter fleet, expanding its current fleet of eight charter aircraft.
In the business jet market, the Global 7500 boasts a maximum range of 14,260 km, enabling non-stop flights* to city pairs such as Tokyo to New York and Tokyo to Mexico. Compared to the former Global 6000 model, the new Global 7500 has additional living space, enhanced performance for takeoff and landing, and high-speed cruise to offer an even more pleasant flight.
*Non-stop flights may not be possible in certain cases, depending on weather conditions and the numbers of passengers.
With business jets, flights can be arranged freely to areas without scheduled flight service, greatly reduces travel times and provides added security. Business jets function as a tool for businesses, by maximizing the valuable time of executives and other travelers. Business jets also reduce the risk of infection and minimize the physical strains of travel, which is an added benefit considering the recent importance of countermeasures against the spread of infection. These advantages make business jets a top choice for a wide range of clients including executives, international businesspersons, government officials, and athletes. Since the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, inquiries on business jets have tripled.
Sojitz remains committed to expanding its portfolio by introducing new aircraft and services, aiming to grow Japan’s business jet market and enhance the convenience of air travel.
