Multiflight Ltd has taken delivery of a BBJ2 - the latest and biggest Boeing Business Jet - which is fitted out with a luxury interior to carry 19 passengers. Total cost was in the region of $60 million.

Multiflight took delivery of the new BBJ2 on 1st July 2003. Upon its arrival, David Hood, founder and chairman of Multiflight said, "The aircraft has a typical range of 5,400 miles. We will be able to fly our clients anywhere in the world with a maximum of just two fuel stops. This aircraft can be classed as a flying hotel/flying boardroom, and at the destination it can act as a ground conference center"

Multiflight's Managing Director, Steve Borrowdale said, "Facilities include a master bedroom with two lounges, a wide screen cinema

with 'surround sound' (in both cabins) and a dining area in both cabins. The BBJ2 also has two luxurious bathrooms, one of which has a spacious shower. An extra large galley area means a la carte fresh food can be cooked to cordon bleu standard aboard the aircraft. There is a huge choice of films and music at each individual seat and access to phone and fax, and through personal laptops to the Internet. Great attention has been paid to reducing cabin noise throughout as this is seen as one of the most tiring aspects of long-range travel."

Multiflight's BBJ2 will be operated by Executive Jet Charter Ltd and certificated under European JAR Operations rules.
