The 787 has the one of the largest ranges of any commercial aircraft – with the 787-9 being the first to fly between London and Australia non-stop. The BBJ787 is equally as capable – and is able to fly 9,945nm with 25 passengers on board. With such a range, it is possible to fly between practically any two cities in the world without needing a fuel stop. Such extensive range is made possible thanks to the aircraft’s fuel efficiency – which also helps reduce operating costs over older large-cabin VVIP aircraft.
The 18ft-wide cabin creates an extensive space for passengers to relax or work whilst also providing the space to hold a variety of different rooms. Typical configurations will include a master bedroom, master bathroom, lounge and dining room as well as a guest cabin in larger VVIP jets.
