Posted by Courtney E. HowardLAS VEGAS, 11 Oct. 2011.Boeing Business Jets (BBJ; NYSE:BA) officials, during the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) conference in Las Vegas, unveiled the latest BBJ to enter the Chinese airplane charter market. Deer Jet of Beijing owns and operates the new BBJ, which marks the second of four BBJ aircraft for the airline. The delivery expands Boeing Business Jets’ airplane charter business in Asia, with Korean Airlines, Beijing Airlines, and Metrojet also chartering BBJs.
"BBJ can carry more people than traditional business jets, as well as having cabins that are around twice as wide with unequalled comfort, space, and freedom of movement, which makes them ideal for carrying business teams," says Steve Taylor, BBJ president.
The interior of Deer Jet's new BBJ was completed by Associated Air Center of Dallas, Texas, and features 28 seats, a bedroom suite, and full-size bathroom with a shower.
