With a range that connects Victoria non-stop to European hubs such as London, Rome and Vienna, as well as major financial centres including Tokyo, Hong Kong, Dubai and Sydney, the 7X offers true global mobility.
VIH Execujet has onboarded a privately owned, fully managed Dassault Falcon 7X to its fleet. Currently undergoing the final stages of Transport Canada certification, the aircraft fills a void in the market for the international traveller that wants direct access to their destination without a fuel stop. It removes the burden of commercial flight connections when leaving VIH's home base of Victoria International Airport in British Columbia and puts the mission control back in the passenger’s hands.
Business development director Dave Des Roches comments: “As a benchmark in its class, the Falcon 7X delivers an exceptional balance of fuel efficiency and intercontinental range. The aircraft features an expansive, three-zone cabin engineered to serve as both a high-productivity office and a serene environment for relaxation, ensuring passengers experience seamless connectivity and absolute comfort throughout long-haul journeys.
“The introduction of the Falcon 7X marks a significant milestone in the legacy of the VIH Aviation Group, introducing the company’s first ultra-long-range charter asset. Operating out of Victoria, the aircraft drastically extends the region's non-stop global reach, perfectly complementing VIH's established fleet, including the Challenger 604 for mid-range regional missions and the amphibious Cessna Caravan 208 for specialised coastal operations throughout British Columbia.”
With a range that connects Victoria non-stop to European hubs such as London, Rome and Vienna, as well as major financial centres including Tokyo, Hong Kong, Dubai and Sydney, the 7X offers true global mobility. Furthermore, configured to comfortably accommodate up to 14 passengers, the aircraft's efficiency makes it a compelling and cost-effective option for high-capacity, shorter-range missions to destinations such as New York or the Caribbean.
Des Roches concludes: “At VIH Execujet we strive to provide the best-in-class service to our customers. The 7X will be an extension of our offering that we aim to leverage to grow the breadth of our fleet to provide more options to fly with us.”
The ultra-long-range business jet is projected to be available for charter operations in Q4.
