Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) 777-9 | Official Website

The title of "world's largest private jet" is currently held by the Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) 777-9, a variant of Boeing's 777X series. This aircraft offers an unparalleled combination of size, range, and luxury, making it the pinnacle of private aviation and the ultimate choice for ultra-high-net-worth individuals, heads of state, and corporate leaders seeking long-range, luxurious travel. Although you can put in your orders, this aircraft has yet to go into delivery.

The BBJ 777-9 is a wide-body business jet based on Boeing's 777-9 commercial airliner. It boasts a cabin area of 3,689 square feet (342.7 square meters), providing ample space for customized interiors that can include conference rooms, lounges, private suites, and more. The aircraft has a length of 251 feet 9 inches (76.7 meters) and a wingspan of 235 feet 5 inches (71.8 meters). Its maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) is 775,000 pounds (351.5 metric tons), and it offers a range of approximately 11,330 nautical miles (20,985 kilometers), allowing non-stop flights between virtually any two cities worldwide.

The BBJ 777-9's expansive cabin allows for highly personalized layouts. Owners can incorporate various luxury amenities such as master bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, fully equipped kitchens, dining areas, and entertainment zones. The aircraft's advanced technology includes a fly-by-wire system, improved aerodynamics, and fuel-efficient engines contributing to reduced operating costs and environmental impact.
