Bombardier Challenger 650 Charter

A Bombardier Challenger 650 charter represents one of the most compelling choices in the heavy jet category, combining the widest cabin cross-section of any aircraft in its class with a transatlantic-capable range of 4,000 nm. Introduced in 2015 as the definitive evolution of Bombardier’s legendary Challenger lineage, this aircraft carries up to 12 passengers in a cabin that sets the benchmark for space and comfort among heavy jets. Prime Jet Services is proud to offer access to this exceptional aircraft, connecting Dubai and the wider UAE to destinations across Europe, Asia, and Africa with speed, style, and reliability.

Technical Specifications

History & Development

The Challenger 650 was officially launched by Bombardier in 2015 as the next-generation successor to the highly successful Challenger 605, itself a refinement of the original Challenger 600 family that had set the standard for large-cabin business jets since the early 1980s. Bombardier developed the 650 to deliver meaningful performance and cabin enhancements while retaining the proven airframe that operators trusted, incorporating upgraded avionics through the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 Advanced flight deck and enhanced cabin technology throughout. The aircraft earned FAA and Transport Canada type certification, quickly finding favour with corporate flight departments and charter operators who valued its combination of range, interior volume, and operational flexibility. Today it remains one of the most sought-after heavy jets in the global charter market, with a fleet presence across all major aviation hubs.

Cabin & Comfort

The Challenger 650’s cabin is widely regarded as the widest in its competitive class at 2.49 m, a distinction passengers notice immediately as they step on board and move freely through the generously proportioned interior. Full stand-up headroom of 1.83 m allows passengers to walk the entire 8.61 m cabin length without stooping, while the thoughtfully designed seating layout typically accommodates up to 12 passengers across club-four configurations, a divan, and individual seats — all of which convert to lie-flat sleeping positions on longer sectors. The rear-mounted baggage compartment provides an exceptional 115 cu ft of accessible in-flight storage, while a well-equipped galley and a private lavatory with vanity ensure that journey standards rival those of a luxury lounge. Cabin noise levels are notably low thanks to advanced sound insulation, and the aircraft supports high-speed connectivity for those who need to remain productive at altitude.

Ideal Routes from Dubai

With a range of 4,000 nm, the Challenger 650 handles Dubai’s most popular business and leisure corridors with ease — London is reachable in approximately 7.5 hours, while destinations such as Singapore, Nairobi, and Mumbai sit comfortably well within range. Flights to popular European capitals including Paris, Zurich, and Rome take between 6 and 7 hours, offering a seamless single-leg journey for executives and families travelling from UAE. The aircraft also performs excellently on regional routes to the Maldives, Seychelles, and Tbilisi, offering passengers full heavy-jet comfort on sectors where smaller aircraft are often deployed.

Compare Similar Aircraft

Clients evaluating the Challenger 650 frequently consider alternatives across the heavy and super-midsize categories depending on group size, range requirements, and budget. The most commonly compared aircraft include the Legacy 650E, which offers additional range and a slightly longer cabin, the Falcon 900LX, a three-engine trijet known for its short-field performance and transatlantic capability, and the G550, a large-cabin option favoured for ultra-long missions where additional range is the primary consideration.
