Two brand new Gulfstreams added to ABS Jets fleet

Leading Czech business jets operator ABS Jets has expanded its fleet with a Gulfstream G650 and G550. Both aircraft flew directly from the manufacturer's airfield to their new Prague base. They join two other G550s and a fleet of seven Embraer Legacy 600s.

Belonging to the long range business jet category, both aircraft can fly reliably from Prague to Los Angeles or Hong Kong without refueling.

“We are pleased to welcome these unique aircraft in our hangars. It is pleasure and honor for all of us to take care of these most modern airplanes” said Jan Kralik, chief operations officer of ABS Jets.

The G650 has been honored as the longest, fastest, luxurious, and most technologically advanced jet that Gulfstream has ever built. Its 2.59-meter-wide cabin is the largest in its class. Such width creates an exquisitely comfortable environment for up to 19 passengers.

The G550 is a classic and, together with the G450, also a widespread type of Gulfstream aircraft found all over the world. Together they have flown more than one million hours. With a crew and up to 19 passengers, it can fly over 12 hours without refueling.

The aircraft offers four distinct living areas, including a crew rest area, a private stateroom, conference area and entertainment space.

Both types enable the use of flight hours as productive work time by offering top modern connectivity from a wireless network and satellite communication to a fax/printer.
