Bombardier Global 6500 vs Bombardier Global 5500 vs Bombardier Global 7500

The Bombardier Global 5500 and Global 6500 are long-range large-cabin business jets, while the Global 7500 sits above them as an ultra-long-range, flagship large-cabin model. In range, the Global 5500 is rated for about 5,900 nautical miles, the Global 6500 extends that to about 6,600 nautical miles, and the Global 7500 leads with roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling more nonstop city-pairs and greater routing flexibility. Passenger capacity is similar in typical executive layouts but scales upward with cabin size: the Global 5500 commonly seats around 8–12 passengers, the Global 6500 around 10–14, and the Global 7500 often around 12–16, with all three capable of higher maximum certified seating depending on configuration. Overall, choose the Global 5500 for long-range missions with slightly smaller cabin and lower operating footprint, the Global 6500 for a step up in range and cabin utility, and the Global 7500 when maximum range, space, and flagship capability matter most.
