In the world of private aviation, few aircraft redefine performance and comfort the way the Bombardier Global 8000 does. As the fastest civilian jet since Concorde, it reaches an extraordinary top speed of Mach 0.95, taking passengers farther, faster, and in greater luxury than any business aircraft ever built. Designed for global travelers who refuse to compromise, the Global 8000 delivers an unmatched combination of speed, range, and wellness.
Supersonic Heritage, Modern Performance
Carrying the DNA of aviation pioneers, the Global 8000 became the first business jet to exceed the speed of sound during testing. Its ultra-high-speed cruise of Mach 0.92 allows nonstop city pairs once considered out of reach — cutting hours off transoceanic missions and maximizing the one luxury that matters most: time.
Go Farther Than Ever Before
With a range of 8,000 nautical miles, this aircraft effortlessly connects destinations like Singapore–Los Angeles, Dubai–Houston, or London–Perth, even from shorter runways such as Nice Côte d’Azur or Cannes Mandelieu. At AirWise, our ground and flight support teams are already prepared to handle the Global 8000’s unique operational profile — from slot strategy and fuel planning to crew logistics and VIP passenger care.
Four True Living Spaces, Zero Compromise
The Global 8000’s cabin is designed as four equal-sized suites, offering privacy, relaxation, and productivity at altitude. Whether it’s a business suite for meetings, a dining area for fine inflight cuisine prepared by AirWise’s Concierge Catering Division, or a quiet zone for rest, the layout ensures every journey feels like home — even 41,000 feet above the Riviera.
The Smoothest Ride in Aviation
Bombardier’s revolutionary Smooth Flĕx Wing acts as an in-flight stabilizer, absorbing turbulence and ensuring the smoothest ride in the sky. Combined with GE Passport engines and advanced aerodynamics, the Global 8000 delivers superior runway performance — crucial for challenging airports like Nice (LFMN), Cannes (LFMD), or Toulon (LFTH) where AirWise provides local supervision and operational oversight.

Wellness at Every Altitude
A true innovation in cabin wellness, the Global 8000 maintains a record-low cabin altitude of just 2,900 feet, keeping passengers refreshed and alert even after 14-hour sectors. Its Bombardier Pũr Air system ensures hospital-grade air purity, filtering 99.99% of particles including viruses and allergens, while replacing cabin air faster than any other business jet.
AirWise’s VVIP inflight catering and bespoke cabin service programs complement these features — ensuring that every detail, from gastronomy to temperature and lighting, supports wellbeing and rest.
Lighting, Seating, and Smart Design
The aircraft’s Soleil circadian lighting system automatically synchronizes with time zones to reduce jet lag, while the Nuage seat introduces the first zero-gravity position in business aviation — redefining comfort for long-range travel. From 55-inch 4K entertainment systems to Ka-band high-speed internet, the Global 8000 transforms the cabin into an office, cinema, and home in the sky.
For Pilots and Crew: A New Era of Control
In the cockpit, the Bombardier Vision flight deck integrates advanced fly-by-wire controls, intuitive ergonomics, and state-of-the-art avionics — giving pilots unmatched precision and confidence. AirWise complements this with comprehensive flight supervision services at Nice and other key French airports, ensuring that every Global 8000 operation benefits from real-time local coordination, slot optimization, and airside-cleared oversight.
