overview

Bombardier Global 5500 for Sale

The Bombardier Global 5500 is the modern evolution of the proven Global 5000 platform, featuring a redesigned wing, the new Rolls-Royce Pearl 15 engines, and Bombardier's Nuage cabin interior. Entering service in July 2020, the Global 5500 delivers 5,900 nm of range, Mach 0.90 top speed, and three distinct living areas across the widest cabin in its class — capable of nonstop flights from Los Angeles to Moscow or São Paulo to Paris.

The Jet Guys helps qualified buyers source, vet, and acquire Global 5500 aircraft through our dedicated acquisition consulting service. With the 5500 being a relatively new type, pre-owned availability is limited, making market access and off-market relationships essential.

frequently asked questions

Global 5500 Acquisition FAQ

How much does a Bombardier Global 5500 cost?

Pre-owned Global 5500s typically range from around $35M to $46M depending on year, hours, and program enrollment; the new list price is approximately $46–47M. As a relatively new type, pricing remains close to new across the available inventory. Contact us for current market figures.

How long does the acquisition process take?

Large-cabin acquisitions typically run 90 to 150 days from initial search to closing, given the complexity of inspection, records review, and any international considerations. We manage the full process on your behalf.

Does The Jet Guys handle pre-buy inspections?

We coordinate the pre-buy inspection with trusted third-party facilities as part of the acquisition process. We don't operate an in-house maintenance shop, but we have the outside resources — inspectors, attorneys, and tax consultants — to manage the transaction end to end.

Can I offset ownership costs by chartering my Global 5500?

The Global 5500 has solid charter appeal thanks to its intercontinental range and cabin — particularly for transcontinental and transatlantic missions. The Jet Guys doesn't directly manage aircraft, but we can advise on placement with a management company through our relationships.

What should I look for when buying a used Global 5500?

Key factors include engine program enrollment (Rolls-Royce CorporateCare), airframe hours, inspection status, avionics configuration, connectivity (Ka-band, Starlink), Nuage cabin condition, and any damage history. We review all of this during vetting.

Are off-market Global 5500s available?

Yes — and given the relatively small Global 5500 fleet, off-market access is especially valuable. We can locate off-market aircraft through our relationships and trusted aircraft broker network.
