The Boeing Business Jet (BBJ1) represents the pinnacle of private aviation. Based on the Boeing 737-700 airliner, the BBJ combines the proven reliability of commercial aviation with the exclusivity and comfort of a bespoke private jet. With over 25 years of operation, BBJs have become the aircraft of choice for governments, global corporations, and VIPs requiring secure, long-range, and fully customized travel solutions. While available in limited supply on the charter market, JetOptions Private Jets can arrange access to these elite aircraft when your mission requires maximum space and nonstop global reach.
The BBJ1 offers a cabin three times larger than that of ultra-long-range executive jets, yet it delivers comparable nonstop range performance. With the ability to fly more than 6,100 nautical miles, a BBJ can easily connect city pairs such as New York to Tokyo, Los Angeles to Paris, or Johannesburg to London without refueling. This capability makes the BBJ an exceptional option for international executives, heads of state, and entertainment tours.
Unlike standard heavy jets, the BBJ is equipped for operations at airports with limited ground support. With built-in airstairs, spacious cargo holds, and robust systems borrowed from commercial 737 models, the BBJ offers flexibility and independence on the ground, even at remote locations.
One of the defining features of the BBJ is its unparalleled interior space. The cabin measures over 5,390 cubic feet, typically configured for 19 passengers in private charter layouts but adaptable for up to 149 in group configurations. Completion centers such as Lufthansa Technik, Jet Aviation, and Greenpoint Technologies transform the airframe into a luxurious airborne residence.
The BBJ cabin offers three times more interior space than comparable heavy jets such as the Gulfstream G650 or Global 6000. Configurations vary, but typical layouts include:
Fresh air circulation systems and dual temperature zones enhance comfort, while soundproofing ensures a quiet, restful environment throughout the flight.

The Boeing Business Jet 1 has a maximum range of 6,141 nautical miles, enabling non-stop flights such as New York–Tokyo, Los Angeles–Paris, or Johannesburg–London. With its built-in airstairs and ability to operate at airports with limited ground facilities, the BBJ offers both flexibility and global reach. Many BBJs are ETOPS-certified for extended overwater operations, allowing intercontinental itineraries with confidence.
BBJ1 Aircraft Specifications
Because of its size and performance, the BBJ is often selected for specialized missions, including:
Corporate Roadshows – Executives can travel globally with office and meeting facilities on board.
Head of State & Government Flights – Configurations tailored for diplomatic and security requirements.
Sports & Entertainment Tours – Ideal for transporting teams, performers, and entourages in privacy.

The Boeing BBJ is a limited-availability charter aircraft. Most BBJs are privately owned by corporations, individuals, or governments, with only a handful available for charter worldwide at any given time. Availability depends on aircraft positioning, owner approval, and mission profile.
JetOptions specializes in arranging on-demand private jet charters for clients who require maximum range, capacity, and exclusivity. Due to its unique market positioning, chartering a BBJ typically requires additional lead time compared to light or mid-sized jets.

BBJ2 (737-800) – Larger cabin and increased cargo space.
BBJ3 (737-900ER) – Extended fuselage and range, suitable for even more expansive configurations.
