BBJ 787-8 Operating Costs

Operating a Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) 787-8 for 200 flight hours per year results in a total annual cost of approximately $6,500,000. This includes fixed costs of $4,436,000, covering essential expenses such as crew salaries, insurance, maintenance programs, and hangar fees to ensure continuous operational readiness. Variable costs amount to $2,064,000, driven by fuel consumption, routine inspections, and other flight-dependent expenses necessary to maintain peak performance. With an hourly operating cost of $10,320, the BBJ 787-8 delivers a balance of long-range capability, efficiency, and luxury, making it an optimal choice for ultra-long-haul private and corporate travel. Chartering the Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) 787-8 for an additional 200 hours per year can provide a substantial financial offset to ownership costs. With an hourly operating cost of $10,320 and a charter rate of $56,000 per hour, the total revenue generated from 200 charter hours would amount to $11,200,000. After covering the additional operating expenses of $2,064,000, the net charter revenue contribution would be approximately $9,136,000. Incorporating charter operations into an ownership strategy allows operators to maximize aircraft utilization while significantly reducing overall operating costs, making the BBJ 787-8 a cost-efficient and highly desirable option for ultra-long-range private and corporate travel.
