Bombardier celebrated the delivery of its first Global 6500 aircraft to Hong Kong aircraft management company HK Bellawings Jet Limited. This news follows the Global 6500 jet’s recent entry-into-service on September 24, 2019, and its public debut at the National Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE) in Las Vegas in October.

“The Global 6500 aircraft is the aircraft of choice for thriving business jet management companies such as HK Bellawings,” said David Coleal, President, Bombardier Aviation. “This industry-leading aircraft offers the largest cabin, the longest range and the smoothest ride in its class. With a refined interior, and the total performance synonymous with Global business jets, the Global 6500 aircraft is perfectly suited to meet the needs of the most discerning travelers in the region.”

“We are thrilled to induct the Global 6500 aircraft into our fleet and to commence our operations with one of the world’s leading business jets,” said Mr. YJ Zhang, President, HK Bellawings. “With its stunning cabin and thoughtful design, we are confident the Global 6500 aircraft will provide an exceptional flight experience to our customers.”

Boasting the widest cabin in its class and high-end craftsmanship, the Global 6500 jet provides passengers with the ultimate comfort for productive and enjoyable flights. The aircraft blends innovation and design seamlessly, and offers exclusive features such as Bombardier’s patented Nuage seat for optimal ergonomic comfort, as well as the Nuage chaise, a versatile seating option that converts from a lounge chair to a flat surface for sleeping or banquet-style dining. 

Equipped with the purpose-built Rolls Royce Pearl engines and a redesigned wing to provide the smoothest ride, the Global 6500 jet offers a class-leading range of 6,600 nautical miles, connecting Hong Kong, Beijing or Shanghai to major destinations such as London, Milan or San Francisco. The brand-new Rolls-Royce Pearl engines’ next-generation design also make the Global 6500 aircraft a cleaner and more efficient business jet, delivering industry-leading ultra-low emission levels for a reduced environmental footprint.
