Challenger 604 Charter | Heavy Jet Rental by JetOptions

The Bombardier Challenger 604 is one of the most respected heavy jets in private aviation.

With over 350 aircraft delivered worldwide, this model remains one of Bombardier’s most successful and reliable large-cabin business jets.

Configured for up to 12 passengers, the Challenger 604 offers a maximum range of approximately 4,000 nautical miles, connecting major global cities with ease.
