Boeing BBJ2.

When scale, sovereignty, and seamless intercontinental reach define the brief, a Boeing BBJ2 charter stands in a category of its own. Built on the proven 737-800 airframe and configured as a full VIP Airliner, the BBJ2 accommodates up to 60 passengers in cabin conditions that rival the most exclusive private estates at 40,000 feet. Its 5,900 nm range and a 32-metre cabin make it the largest single-aisle VIP configuration available on the charter market today — ideal for heads of state, executive delegations, or luxury group travel demanding both capacity and comfort. Prime Jet Services is proud to offer access to this extraordinary aircraft for clients departing from Dubai and the wider UAE region.

History & Development

The Boeing BBJ2 was introduced in 2001 as a natural evolution of the original BBJ, which had itself launched in 1998 as a joint venture between Boeing and General Electric Capital Aviation Services. Where the BBJ was based on the narrower 737-700 airframe, Boeing stretched the concept onto the larger 737-800 platform for the BBJ2, delivering a substantially longer and higher-capacity cabin without sacrificing the efficiency of the CFM56-7B27 twin-engine powerplant. The result gave the VIP and government aviation market an aircraft capable of carrying large delegations or high-net-worth groups on intercontinental missions in conditions that commercial widebodies simply could not replicate. The BBJ2 quickly attracted government operators, royal households, and private owners who needed genuine long-range capability combined with expansive, fully customisable interiors.

Cabin & Comfort

The BBJ2’s 32-metre cabin is its defining feature, offering an interior space that operators routinely configure into multiple distinct zones — private staterooms, conference suites, a formal dining area, a lounge, and dedicated crew quarters — all within a single continuous floorplan. Standing headroom of 2.2 metres and a cabin width of 3.5 metres ensure passengers never feel constrained, while the advanced noise-attenuation systems built into the BBJ series keep the cabin environment impressively quiet at cruise altitude. A full-service galley supports elaborate in-flight dining, and the generous 700 cu ft of baggage volume means lengthy international journeys can be managed without compromising on luggage, equipment, or specialist cargo. High-speed satellite connectivity, multiple large-screen entertainment systems, and luxuriously appointed lavatories complete an onboard experience that sets the benchmark for VIP group travel.

Ideal Routes from Dubai

Operating from Dubai, the BBJ2’s 5,900 nm range opens an exceptional spread of non-stop destinations, including London (approximately 7 hours), Singapore (roughly 7.5 hours), and Nairobi (around 4.5 hours) — all well within the aircraft’s comfortable operating envelope. For large delegations travelling between Dubai and key European capitals such as Paris or Zurich, or onward to South and Southeast Asian business hubs including Mumbai and Bangkok, the BBJ2 provides the ideal combination of group capacity and true intercontinental reach without technical stops.

Compare Similar Aircraft

Clients evaluating large-cabin VIP options alongside the BBJ2 often consider ultra-long-range alternatives when group size allows for a smaller footprint. Aircraft frequently compared in this segment include the Global 7500, the G650ER, and the Falcon 8X — each offering exceptional range and bespoke cabin environments, though none matching the BBJ2’s unrivalled passenger capacity and sheer cabin volume for larger group movements.
