Planet 9 Celebrates Third Anniversary With Expanded Fleet

Planet 9, the Van Nuys, CA. based private charter operator and aircraft management company, celebrated its third anniversary on June 22nd by taking the keys to its latest ultra-long range business jet. The Bombardier Global Express BD-700 (N9103J), a managed aircraft, is ready for charter on Planet 9’s Part 135 AOC, from the UK’s Southampton Airport.

This Global Express features a generous cabin layout seating up to 13 passengers for daytime flying and five beds, sleeping six in night-time configuration.  With a range of 5,830 nm / 10,797 nm, up to 12 hours’ flying time, it can fly direct from Los Angeles to London or Tokyo. It has a generous galley for food and drink preparation, two bathrooms and offers inflight Gogo Wireless Internet.

With a second Gulfstream GIV-SP coming online later this month, Planet 9 will have added five managed, charter aircraft during the first half of 2021.

Planet 9 also marks its anniversary with an enhanced website and logo (by UK based aviation brand agency Design Inc.).
