Boeing BBJ 787-8

The BBJ 787-8 turns the Dreamliner into a widebody VIP aircraft with a 6,000-foot cabin altitude and nearly 10,000 nm of range. Most are operated by governments and a few private owners.

Key points

• Composite fuselage allows higher cabin humidity
• Completion alone can exceed the airframe price
• Requires widebody-capable airports and hangars

• Government, head-of-state and ultra-high-net-worth flying with large delegations
• Multi-room cabins including bedrooms, offices and conference space
• Missions where cabin volume matters more than airport flexibility
