Introduction & Fun Facts

Launched in 2005, the Bombardier Global 5000 was designed as a slightly shorter version of the Global Express, optimized for operators who needed long-range capability but didn’t require maximum range. It retains the luxurious wide cabin of the Global family while offering greater flexibility for shorter airfields and quicker turnaround times.

Fun fact: The Global 5000 is capable of connecting Geneva to New York or Zurich to Beijing nonstop, while still offering the same smooth ride and advanced noise reduction as its larger siblings.
