About this aircraft

The Global 5500 updates the Global 5000 mission with Bombardier's newer Global cabin and Bombardier Vision flight deck philosophy—more range and refinement than classic 5000s.

It sits beneath Global 6500/7500 while delivering modern Global interiors for long-range travel. Operators see it as the efficient Global for missions short of ultra-flagship legs.

A strong charter option when Global 6000/6500 is more aircraft than needed.
