Why the Bombardier Global 6000 Fits Kentucky
With 6,000 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Kentucky to destinations such as Turks and Caicos, Los Angeles and Paris, allowing for reserves and routing. Derby week in Louisville and the Keeneland meets in Lexington are the busiest times for private flights in Kentucky, so book those dates early.
An aircraft this size usually flies from Louisville Muhammad Ali International, Blue Grass Airport in Lexington or Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International, depending on where your trip starts. The runway an aircraft needs is calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm it with the operator before anything is booked.
How Kentucky Clients Use the Bombardier Global 6000
On a long flight from Kentucky, these cabins let passengers rest and arrive ready to work. For a trip that ends outside the United States, send us every passenger’s nationality early, so the arrival abroad can be planned into the route.
Give us the route, who is flying and what they are bringing, golf clubs included, and your advisor will tell you whether this aircraft is right or suggest one that suits the trip better.

- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
