Private jet company Bond is expanding its commitment with Bombardier Inc. to about $5 billion, betting ultra-wealthy travelers will pay a premium for a club-style experience in the sky.
Bond, backed by KKR & Co., increased its order commitment from about $4 billion, according to a statement reviewed by Bloomberg News. The move comes as Bond is shifting its fleet toward Bombardier’s flagship Global 8000, a top-tier jet capable of flying at nearly the speed of sound, while still maintaining a mix of the Global 6500 and Challenger aircrafts.
