This includes fixed costs of $1,045,735, which cover essential expenses such as crew salaries, insurance, hangar fees, and maintenance programs to ensure the aircraft remains in peak operational condition. Variable costs amount to $1,873,800, driven by factors such as fuel consumption, routine inspections, and other flight-dependent expenses. With an hourly operating cost of $9,369, the Global Express delivers long-range performance and exceptional cabin comfort while maintaining a cost structure aligned with its capabilities and mission profile.
By chartering the Bombardier Global Express for an additional 200 hours, owners can significantly offset the operating costs of the aircraft. With an hourly operating cost of $9,369 and a charter rate of $11,000, the revenue generated from 200 hours of charter operations would amount to $2,200,000. After covering the additional operating expenses of $1,873,800, the net charter revenue would be approximately $326,200. This additional revenue can help reduce the overall financial burden of ownership, making it an efficient way to maximize the aircraft’s utilization while maintaining the luxury and performance that the Global Express offers.
