TAG Aviation has set several milestones with recent long-range flights on its Bombardier Global 7500 fleet.

The trips in question were from Hong Kong to Newark, New Jersey and San Jose, California to Hong Kong, non-stop with flight times of 14 hours 58 minutes and 15 hours 48 minutes respectively, which are the among the longest flight endurance range of the Global 7500.

To achieve such trips, the company says, impeccable flight planning was needed along with the skills of a trained and experienced crew. It took teamwork and collaboration by all involved.

“Ensuring optimal efficiency is one of the top priorities for our operations team. To achieve this, we diligently monitor weather conditions to plan the most efficient route, both in time and fuel use.

“As one of the most experienced operators of long-range operations, TAG Aviation ensures that you get the best performance out of your aircraft, all year round.

Knowing the market and being able to recommend the right aircraft to clients is something TAG does best and has helped form trust and reliability with many clients over the years.
