Since the company’s founding nearly a decade ago, the VIP completions team has extensively refurbished six Boeing BBJ aircraft, two Boeing 757s, one Boeing 767 and one Boeing 727, clearly demonstrating its expertise in Boeing corporate aircraft completion projects.
Boeing Business Jet (BBJ)
The latest VIP completion project in the world of luxury aviation involves breathing new life into a Boeing Business Jet.
The Boeing Business Jet, or BBJ, is the epitome of high-performance aviation. It is derived from the iconic Boeing 737, which has an impressive range of over 6,000 nautical miles, enabling non-stop flights across continents.
Introduced in 1998, BBJ has gained a global presence, with approximately 140 of these marvels gracing the skies today.
A glimpse of luxury
What can passengers expect from this luxury aircraft? The answer lies in the promise of unparalleled comfort, luxury, personal style and cutting-edge technology. The interior will contain three main cabin areas:
Front main hall: Equipped with a built-in movie projector and drop-down screen, this lounge promises entertainment at its best.
Back hall: Designed for relaxation and socializing, this space is designed to be a social hub.
Master bedroom with en-suite bathroom: For maximum privacy and comfort, the master bedroom offers an oasis in the sky.
There is a large galley in the middle of the cabin with a bar area adjacent to the aft lounge, ensuring passengers have access to delicious food and drinks throughout their flight.
BBJ will feature three lavatories: Forward Crew Lavatory; A large passenger toilet is in the middle of the cabin, and a master bedroom toilet is aft with a full shower.
Elegance of design
Interior design upgrades include:
Specially designed seats: Upholstered in luxurious Garrett leather and accented with intricate diamond-shaped stitching.
Luxury collections: Upholstered in luxurious Loro Piana fabric.

On a leisure trip
The new Cabin Management System (CMS) and In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) will take the passenger experience to new heights:
Smooth control: The CMS can be easily managed via Crestron app-enabled iPads.
Auditory bliss: The customized ALTO sound system, calibrated for the cabin using ALTO’s MySound™ optimization tool, ensures perfect sound.
Visual delight: Upgraded high-definition screens for immersive viewing.
Ambient lighting: Dynamic RGB LED lighting sets the mood.
