Why consider this model?
How much space?


People and cabin dimensions share one scale. The cabin outline is illustrative. The layout is an example, not the seat map of the aircraft in your quote.
Room for your luggage
1.84 m³ of baggage space.
* Indicative estimate based on published baggage volume, for medium suitcases around 65 × 45 × 25 cm. Compartment shape, door openings, baggage weight and flight load can reduce the number. We confirm your luggage for the aircraft offered.
Skis, golf bags or extra luggage?
Include the number and dimensions of bulky items in your request. Long items need a separate check.
Aircraft specifications
Planning figure; passenger load, wind, reserves and airfield conditions affect the route.
The model and its relatives
40
Deliveries began in 2004. The Model 40 shortened the Learjet 45 to create a lighter six-seat alternative; the later 40XR changed performance rather than cabin size.
31A
The Learjet 31A puts strong cruise performance into a small cabin. It works best for short trips with a small group and carefully planned luggage.
35
The Learjet 35 family combines a compact cabin with substantial range for its size. The low ceiling and limited baggage space are important when planning a longer flight.
Model historyWhere it began and how it evolved
The Learjet 45 introduced a new cabin design beyond the classic narrow Learjet fuselage. Bombardier then shortened that platform to create the 40, rather than developing another aircraft from the older 35. This kept the newer cabin cross-section for a smaller passenger group. Later XR changes concentrated on performance, so the shorter cabin remained the defining difference from the 45.

Before you choose
Can I stand upright in the cabin?
The cabin is lower than 180 cm, so a person of that height cannot stand fully upright. The scaled illustration shows the difference. Maximum cabin height: 1.50 m.
Will my aircraft have this exact interior?
Not necessarily. These photographs and the layout illustrate the model. We check the actual interior, seats and equipment when preparing your proposal.
