Business Jet Pioneer Achieves Regulatory Milestone Amid Growing Demand for Ultra-Long-Range Aircraft
Bombardier’s Global 8000 has secured EASA certification, marking a significant milestone in its journey to customer operations in Europe. Following type certification from Transport Canada and FAA validation, the aircraft entered service in December 2025. With its top speed of Mach 0.95 and range of up to 8,000 nautical miles, the Global 8000 is poised to compete with other ultra-long-range business jets. Bombardier emphasizes the aircraft’s operational flexibility, short-field performance, and low cabin altitude as key selling points.
