Rizon Jet has added a third Challenger 605 to its managed charter fleet.

"The 605 continues to receive strong market acceptance, and it is a gratifying achievement for Rizon Jet to see another one being delivered to the Middle Eastern market, joining Rizon Jet's managed fleet," says director of sales and aircraft management Simon D'Oyly.

"This new management contract affirms the market's confidence in Rizon Jet's ability to operate and charter the Bombardier family," says ceo Captain Hassan Al-Mousawi. "Together with our first two Challenger 605s and the Hawker 900XP already based in Doha, this additional aircraft offers a highly comfortable and luxurious flying experience for our vip clientele. "The demand for corporate aircraft in the Middle East has been growing very rapidly in the past few years and it is anticipated that demand will increase over the coming years," he adds. This particular aircraft's cabin is certified for nine passengers, offering a club four seating configuration in the forward cabin, with a divan plus club two arrangement in the aft divan, facing a four-seat dining table in the aft compartment. A spacious lavatory is at the cabin's end and the baggage compartment is accessible in flight through a door in the lavatory's aft wall.

The 605 can fly up to 4,000nm non-stop enabling Rizon to fly from Doha to major business destinations, including London, Singapore and Johannesburg in an interior described as 'comfortable, functional and elegant'.
