Are you flying to a last-minute business meeting and need to get there quickly? Or perhaps you’re organising a spontaneous trip abroad and want to jet off as soon as possible? There are many reasons you may need to get from A to B with speed – and hiring a private jet is one of the most convenient options. Not only are they fast and direct, but luxurious and comfortable too.
If you’re short on time and want to get to your destination swiftly, you may be looking for the fastest private jet available. Here, we explore how fast a private jet can fly, and which of our planes is the quickest.
Typically, commercial aircraft will fly at between 460-575 mph, or 740-930 km/h. However, the speed of a private jet can vary depending on several factors, such as the wind on the date of the flight. For instance, if a private plane is flying into strong headwinds, it will slow the plane down, resulting in longer journey times. Whereas if there are strong tailwinds during the flight, this will help the jet to travel quicker and will also reduce fuel consumption.
Here at VistaJet, we have a fleet of over 70 luxury aircraft that travel to 187 countries worldwide. Each of our planes offer exceptional performance, however our fastest private jet currently is the Bombardier Global 7500. This is the largest and longest-range business jet in the world, offering a maximum speed of 610 mph, or 982 km/h.
Not only is it the fastest private jet available in our fleet, but it also offers exceptional facilities suited to both business and leisure travellers. There are four spacious living areas onboard, including a master bedroom with permanent bed, full-size kitchen and an entertainment suite. Whether you want to talk business with colleagues, spend quality time with the family or enjoy a delicious dinner and drinks, the Bombardier Global 7500 can cater to your requirements.
After the Global 7500 aircraft, the next fastest private jets we offer are the Global 6000 and the Global 5000 – both capable of a maximum speed of 586 mph or 943 km/h. With enough space for 13 to 14 people or 7 sleeping, these jets are spacious enough for work, rest or entertaining.
