Why the Bombardier Global 6500 Fits Aruba
With 6,600 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips between Aruba and destinations such as Charlotte, Toronto and Amsterdam, allowing for reserves and routing. Aruba sits on the southern edge of the hurricane belt, but hurricane season runs from June 1st to November 30th, and a storm farther north can affect the flight down.
On the island, every private flight uses Queen Beatrix International in Oranjestad, and at home an aircraft this size usually leaves from one of the larger airports in your area. The runway an aircraft needs is calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and your advisor confirms it with the operator before the trip is booked.
How Aruba Clients Use the Bombardier Global 6500
On a long flight to or from the island, these cabins let passengers sleep and arrive rested. For a trip that crosses several borders, send us every passenger’s nationality early so the route can be planned around it.
Tell us where you are flying from, who is coming and what they are packing, dive gear and golf clubs included, and your advisor will tell you whether this aircraft fits or suggest one that suits the trip better.

- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
