Charter of a Bombardier Global 6500 starts at $9,000 to $13,000 per flight hour. The Global 6500 entered production in 2019 with Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 engines at 15,125 lbf each. It carries up to 16 passengers across a 6,600-nautical-mile range at 513 knots and maximum takeoff weight of 99,500 lbs. The Global 6500 takeoff distance is 6,145 feet and landing distance is 2,236 feet. Hogani Jets coordinates each Global 6500 charter through licensed Part 135 operators.

The Global 6500 is the current-production replacement for the Global 6000. It shares the same 99-foot-5-inch fuselage and cabin cross-section. The Pearl 15 engines, 600 nm more range, and the fully modernized cabin differentiate it from the legacy aircraft.

The Global 6500 maximum fuel weight is 45,050 pounds, compared to the Global 6000's fuel capacity. The Pearl 15's improved efficiency converts that fuel into 6,600 nm of range versus the Global 6000's 6,000 nm.

The Bombardier Global 6500 is an ultra long range twin-engine jet in current production since 2019. It carries up to 16 passengers across a 6,600-nautical-mile range at 513 knots. Two Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 engines produce 15,125 lbf each. Maximum takeoff weight is 99,500 lbs and service ceiling is 51,000 feet. The takeoff distance is 6,145 feet and landing distance is 2,236 feet.

The Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 is the defining upgrade from the Global 6000's BR710A2-20. Both engines produce similar thrust levels, but the Pearl 15 delivers meaningfully better efficiency.

The Pearl 15 produces 15,125 lbf — 375 lbf more than the BR710A2-20's 14,750 lbf. More importantly, the Pearl 15 is a newer-generation turbofan architecture that burns fuel more efficiently at cruise. The Global 6500 carries 45,050 lbs of maximum fuel. That efficiency gain converts that fuel into 600 nm more range than the Global 6000.

The Global 6500's takeoff distance is 6,145 feet versus the Global 6000's 6,476 feet. The shorter takeoff requirement reflects the Pearl 15's improved thrust. The Smooth Flex Wing, shared with the Global 5500, also contributes. The Smooth Flex Wing acts as an in-air shock absorber, delivering the smoothest ride in the Global family.

The cabin noise advantage is also meaningful: 57 dBa versus the Global 6000's 60 dBa. On 10 to 13-hour sectors, three fewer decibels of cabin noise reduces passenger fatigue and improves sleep quality.

The Global 6500 is the longest-range and most capable aircraft in the Global twin family. It shares cabin systems with the Global 5500 and the fuselage with the Global 6000.

For missions requiring more than 6,000 nm, or where modern cabin systems are a priority, the Global 6500 is the current-production choice. The Global 6000 remains available as a legacy alternative at the same rate tier.

The Global 6500 seats up to 16 passengers across three cabin zones. Standard charter configurations run 12 to 14.

  • Club suite: Nuage seating collection with zero-gravity position; converts to flat sleeping surface via the Nuage Chaise.
  • Conference suite: Award-winning Nuage Chaise; designed for meetings, dining, and lounge use.
  • Private suite: Quietest part of the cabin; partitioned for rest and privacy.
  • En suite: Lavatory with windows for natural light; large mirror, vanity, sink; available stand-up shower.
  • Soleil lighting: Circadian-based full-spectrum system; combats jet lag; exclusive to Global aircraft.
  • Bombardier l'Opera audio: Super high-fidelity speakers; seat-centric sound technology.
  • Bombardier Pur Air: Advanced HEPA filtration; purified and 100% fresh air options; exclusive to Global aircraft.
  • 4K entertainment: Two 24-inch 4K cabin displays; media bay with HDMI, USB-C, and internal storage.
  • Connectivity: Iridium Certus pole-to-pole coverage plus available high-speed internet.
  • Kitchen: Convection/microwave and convection/steam oven; premium coffee and espresso machine available.
  • Crew rest: Separate crew rest area and forward lavatory; ensures passenger privacy throughout the flight.
  • 195 cubic feet of pressurized baggage: Accessible throughout the flight via the En suite.

The Global 6500 cabin is 48.4 feet long, 8.2 feet wide, and 6.2 feet tall. Cabin pressurization holds a 5,800-foot equivalent altitude at cruise. The Bombardier Vision flight deck features four large displays and the industry's first true Combined Vision System, seamlessly merging enhanced and synthetic vision on the head-up display. The aircraft seats up to 16 passengers with 195 cubic feet of pressurized baggage accessible in flight.

The 6,600-nautical-mile range connects New York to Hong Kong, Dubai to Atlanta, and London to Singapore. These are routes the Global 6000 cannot complete nonstop.

How much does it cost to charter a Global 6500?

Global 6500 charter rates typically run $9,000 to $13,000 per flight hour. New York to London one-way runs approximately $85,500 to $105,500.

How does the Global 6500 differ from the Global 6000?

The Global 6500 replaces the BR710A2-20 engines with Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 units. Range increases to 6,600 nm, an addition of 700 nm. The cabin upgrades to Nuage seating, Soleil lighting, l'Opera audio, and Pur Air. Cabin noise improves from 60 to 57 dBa. The fuselage is identical.

How does the Global 6500 differ from the Global 5500?

Both use Pearl 15 engines and share the same cabin systems. The Global 6500 has a longer fuselage: 99 ft 5 in versus 96 ft 10 in. Range is 700 nm greater (6,600 vs 5,900 nm). MTOW is 99,500 vs 92,500 lbs. The 6500 cabin is approximately 3.4 feet longer.

How does the Global 6500 compare to the Gulfstream G650ER?

The G650ER flies farther (7,500 vs 6,600 nm) and carries more passengers (19 vs 16) at a slightly higher rate. The Global 6500 costs 9,000–13,000/hr, adds Pearl 15 engines, Nuage seating, and Soleil lighting unavailable on the G650ER.

Is the Global 6500 worth chartering vs the Global 6000?

Yes, for most missions. Both cost 9,000–13,000/hr and share the same fuselage. The 6500 adds Pearl 15 engines, Nuage seating, Soleil lighting, and 600 nm more range. Unless availability favors the 6000, the 6500 is the stronger choice.

Is the Global 6500 in production?

Yes. The Global 6500 has been in production since 2019.Approximately 137 aircraft are in active global operation.

Can the Global 6500 fly New York to Hong Kong?

New York to Hong Kong is approximately 7,290 nautical miles, beyond the Global 6500's 6,600 nm range. Confirm routing, payload, and winds with Hogani Jets; favorable conditions or a fuel stop may be required.

Are empty leg flights available?

Yes. The aircraft's positioning on intercontinental routes creates empty-leg opportunities. Availability is short-notice and date-fixed; Hogani Jets recommends flexibility.
