Know which model you are choosing

The model and its relatives

Global 5500

The 5500 entered service in 2019 as a development of the Global 5000. Rolls-Royce Pearl engines and changes to the wing improved its performance while the passenger cabin kept familiar proportions.

Global 5000

The Global 5000 puts several seating areas and a full galley into a shorter Global fuselage. It offers the space of a large business jet without the cabin length of the 6000.

Global 6500

A long-range Global with a three-zone cabin and updated seating. The 6500 extends the reach of the 6000 while keeping a familiar, usable cabin layout.

Model historyWhere it began and how it evolved

The 5500 renewed the shorter Global platform after the 5000. Rather than stretching the fuselage, Bombardier used a newer engine generation and aerodynamic improvements. The passenger space remained familiar, while revised seating and cabin systems brought it closer to the newer members of the Global range.

Bombardier also introduced Nuage seating and updated cabin controls. Individual charter aircraft can differ in the number of seats and the arrangement of the rear lounge.
