Bizliner

A bizliner is an airliner converted into a private aircraft: the Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) based on the 737, the Airbus ACJ319/320neo family and, at the top, widebody 787 and A350 conversions. Cabins of 800–1,000 square feet or more accommodate bedrooms, showers, conference rooms and 18–50 passengers, with ranges of 6,000–7,000 nautical miles. They serve heads of state, royal families, corporations moving whole delegations and tour groups, at charter rates of $18,000–$30,000 an hour plus much higher airport fees. Their weight also restricts them to larger airports and they are less flexible on slots and parking than a purpose-built business jet.
