The Bombardier Global 7500, an ultra-long-range business jet, is recognized for its significant advancements in private aviation. This aircraft, the largest purpose-built business jet, combines range, speed, comfort, and technology. "The Global 7500 represents the pinnacle of Bombardier’s business aviation expertise," highlighting its position as a leader in the industry.

Introduced in the 1990s to compete in the ultra-long-range market, the Bombardier Global series began with the Global Express in 1996. The series evolved over time with models like the Global 5000 and Global 6000. The Global 7500 was initially unveiled as the Global 7000 in 2010 before being rebranded in 2018. Certified by Transport Canada, FAA, and EASA that year, it entered service in December.

The technical specifications of the Global 7500 cater to elite travelers demanding performance and luxury. It offers a maximum range of 7,700 nautical miles (14,260 km), allowing nonstop intercontinental flights such as New York to Hong Kong or Los Angeles to Sydney. These capabilities are due to efficient aerodynamics and substantial fuel capacity.
