Elite Jets is reaping the benefits of acquiring a Challenger 604 with a passenger capacity of up to 10 people. "I am very pleased with our new aircraft and strongly believe that our clientele will derive great pleasure from their travel experience," says Ammar Balkar, president and ceo.

"The configuration offers 'office in the sky' amenities to facilitate meetings en route. Its 7,551 km range offers non-stop flights from Dubai to London, Singapore and Seychelles, and Riyadh to Paris or trans-Atlantic from London to New York, among other numerous key destinations."

Additional features of the 604 include double club seating, divan, tracking seats, extendable work tables, and an expansive 19 m2 cabin. "The 604 is a high altitude boardroom," says Balkar. The six foot cabin height allows executives to move about freely, work or relax in a spacious environment, he says. "A business person's in flight work capabilities are virtually limitless with the satellite-based voice communications, data transmission, and networking technologies that are provided."
