This new order, with options for five additional aircraft, compliments BJETS' previous order for the purchase of 11 Hawker 900XP and nine 850XP business jets for their fractional fleet throughout India and Southeast Asia.
BJETS, a private company based in Mumbai and Singapore, provides fractional and block charters to corporate houses and high networth individuals. It has a flight operations centre based in Hyderabad.
Fractional ownership means a person or a company can make part payment for the aircraft and operate it in accordance with their own requirement.
BJETS CEO Mark Baier said the key factors which led them to select Hawker business jets were its advanced design, performance and exceptional cabin which "surpassed the standards we expect for our customers".
"We are delighted to once again provide BJETS the best aircraft in the industry for their private jet travel services," Brad Hatt, President (Commercial Aircraft) of the Kansas-based Hawker Beechcraft Corporation, said.
