Charter a Bombardier Challenger 850: Up to 16 Passengers, About 2,450 nm Nonstop
Need to fly a group of up to sixteen people together, in one jet instead of two? The Bombardier Challenger 850 is one of the few business jets that can: an airliner-length cabin of almost 15 m, 2.49 m wide, for flights such as Istanbul to Dubai or London, Almaty to Dubai.
It is the corporate version of the CRJ200 regional jet, usually arranged in three zones: a four-seat club at the front, divans in the middle and a private lounge with a large divan at the rear. Teams can work, meet and rest in separate spaces, and 8.6 m³ of baggage space takes everyone's luggage.
ICCJET finds the aircraft and the operator, checks the route and organises the trip.
Free route check. Send your route, date and number of passengers. ICCJET tells you whether the Challenger 850 flies it nonstop, which jets fit better if it does not, and what the trip involves. No obligation.

Payload
Passengers, bags and range: the honest numbers
Every private jet trades passengers for fuel. Here is how it works on the Challenger 850, in plain numbers.
The Challenger 850 carries a maximum payload of about 4,256 kg: passengers and bags together. With full tanks, about 162 kg of payload remains, roughly 1 passenger with bags at 100 kg each. So full tanks and a full cabin do not go together: with 12 to 16 passengers, plan trips of up to about 2,200 nm, and the operator trims fuel to the load.
Comfort
Cabin and baggage
The cabin is about 14.76 m long, 2.49 m wide and 1.85 m high: you can stand and walk the length of it. It is usually split into three zones with up to 16 seats.
Bags go in the 8.6 m³ of baggage space, enough for a full group. Tell ICCJET about skis, golf bags or large boxes when you book.
