Boeing's introduction of the Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) in 1999, followed by Airbus with a competing model has gradually awakened interest by the international business and government aviation community in larger, longer range aircraft, available at competitive

prices that can:

 

 
  • Accommodate more passengers

  • In significantly better comfort (staterooms and enclosed private suites, amenities)

  • Covering equivalent or often larger distances
