Charter the Bombardier Challenger 604, a proven heavy jet that redefined long-range corporate travel when it entered service in the mid-1990s. Built on the firm foundation of the Challenger 601, the 604 introduced powerful engines, enhanced avionics, and structural upgrades, making it one of the most successful aircraft in Bombardier’s Challenger series. With more than 350 delivered worldwide, the Challenger 604 continues to fly corporate executives, VIPs, and private charter clients who value its spacious cabin and dependable performance.
With seating for up to 12 passengers and a range of approximately 4,000 nautical miles, the Challenger 604 remains a cost-effective option for transcontinental and many transatlantic flights. Its wide-body cabin design provides stand-up height and generous space, making it one of the most comfortable choices in its class. At JetOptions, we offer access to Challenger 604 aircraft through top-tier ARGUS and Wyvern-certified operators, ensuring safety, flexibility, and value for every journey.
The Challenger 604 offers one of the widest cabins in the heavy jet category. Its flat-floor, stand-up cabin provides an open, spacious feel ideal for both productivity and relaxation on long flights. Thanks to significant noise reduction improvements, the 604 is a quiet environment for work or rest. Many aircraft are equipped with upgraded interiors and Wi-Fi, keeping this legacy model relevant and appealing in today’s charter market.
The cabin is often divided into two seating zones, allowing passengers to work in one section while others relax in another. With nearly 1,150 cubic feet of volume, the 604 offers an experience closer to that of an airliner than a typical business jet of its era.
The Challenger 604 is designed for long-range performance, making it a versatile choice for both business and leisure travel. With a range of around 4,000 NM, it comfortably covers transcontinental routes within North America and many transatlantic pairings.
These performance capabilities make the 604 popular for executive roadshows, corporate team travel, family vacations, and group itineraries requiring nonstop reach and cabin comfort.
