“There’s a strong interest in Bombardier aircraft as more and more people explore their business travel options,” said Peter Likoray, Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, New Aircraft, Bombardier Business Aircraft. “We created this virtual event in order to connect with customers, and to offer convenient and personalized access to our stunning aircraft and our expert team.”

Bombardier is hosting individual online visits, by appointment, inside the Learjet 75 Liberty aircraft, the Challenger 350 aircraft, the Global 6500 aircraft and the industry flagship Global 7500 aircraft.

During this four-day online event, Bombardier is debuting its all-new Virtual Showroom, allowing users to interact with its industry-leading fleet of business jets, from light to mid-size to large-cabin aircraft. The Virtual Showroom invites visitors on a self-guided tour of Bombardier’s fleet, where they can choose which aircraft to visit and explore their unparalleled cabins.

This digital innovation complements other interactive tools on Bombardier’s Business Aircraft website, including the recently launched Needs Assessment Tool, which matches users with their ideal aircraft, and the popular Aircraft Configurator, where visitors can design their own cabin interiors.

As travellers seek safe and convenient ways to fly, Bombardier’s broad portfolio of business jets offers the ultimate peace of mind. The Learjet, Challenger and Global business jet platforms are designed around passenger wellness and renowned for their range, spaciousness, air quality and smooth ride.
