In category terms, the Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty and ACJ320 are single-aisle corporate/VIP jets, while the Boeing BBJ MAX 7, MAX 8, and MAX 9 are also single-aisle business jets derived from the 737 MAX family. The Boeing BBJ 777-8 and BBJ 777-9 sit in the large widebody “head-of-state/ultra-long-range VVIP” category, offering far more cabin volume than the single-aisle options. For range, the ACJ TwoTwenty is typically cited around 5,650 nm, and the ACJ320 around 4,200 nm depending on configuration. The BBJ MAX line generally ranges from roughly 6,600–7,000 nm, with the MAX 7 at the upper end and MAX 9 somewhat lower. The BBJ 777-8 is the longest-legged of the group at about 10,000 nm, while the BBJ 777-9 is slightly shorter at about 9,700 nm. Passenger capacity varies widely by interior. Single-aisle ACJ/BBJ MAX cabins commonly seat about 19–50 in VIP layouts, while the BBJ 777-8/777-9 can be configured for anywhere from a few dozen up to well over 100, depending on mission and density.
