Are you a spontaneous holidaymaker keen to start your next adventure as soon as possible? Or are you flying to a business meeting at short notice and need to get there quickly? Whatever the reason for your trip, we understand that in some circumstances you may want your journey to be as fast as possible − and hiring a private jet is a highly convenient option.
Not only is traveling by private plane quick and direct, it also means you won’t have to contend with long waits in the terminal or at security. If you need to get from A to B speedily and are searching for the fastest private jet available, we’re here to help. We’ve put together some handy information on typical private jet speeds and which of our planes are the fastest.
Most commercial aircraft typically fly at around 460-575 mph, or 740-930 km/h, according to Flight Deck Friend. But private jet speed can vary depending on a variety of factors, such as the weight onboard and the weather conditions. Wind speed can have a particularly large impact on how fast a private jet can fly – so the speed and direction of the wind on the date you travel may affect the time your journey takes. Strong headwinds will usually slow the jet down resulting in slightly longer flight times, while tailwinds can help the plane travel faster and reduce fuel consumption.
We’re proud to be a truly global aviation company, with a fleet of over 70 luxury private jets traveling to 96% of the world’s countries. All our aircraft can get you where you need to be quickly, but our fastest private jet is currently the Bombardier Global 7500. This exceptional aircraft is the world’s largest and longest-range business jet, and can fly at a maximum speed of 610 mph or 982 km/h.
While this is the fastest private jet available, here at VistaJet, speed doesn’t mean you compromise on comfort. Inside the aircraft are four spacious living areas, including a bedroom with permanent bed, conference suit and full-size kitchen. The luxurious interior of the Bombardier Global 7500 can cater for both business and leisure trips, with enough space for 14 passengers or 8 sleeping.
The next fastest private jet aircrafts in our fleet are the Global 6000 and the Global 5000. These planes feature opulent, spacious interiors where you can catch up with colleagues, rest and relax with a cashmere blanket, or enjoy a fine dining experience in the air. Both planes fly at a maximum speed of 586 mph or 943 km/h – so you’ll be landing at your destination before you know it.
Booking your private flight with us means you’ll have access to some of the fastest private jet aircrafts in the industry. While our planes offer a quick and efficient way to get from A to B, they also provide a true homely atmosphere in which you can relax, work, and dine as you please. Luxury is to be expected throughout your journey, from the plush leather seats and cashmere blankets, to the high-tech business suites and delicious a la carte dishes.
