PLANET NINE PRIVATE AIR holds it on their Part 135 certificate (7P9A), so it is bookable for charter. In the twelve months to 7 September 2026 it flew 47 legs on 31 days, about 34,637 nautical miles. That is 76% less than the median Bombardier Global 6000 in U.S. charter service (106 airframes tracked), so it spends more of the year available than most.
