VistaJet Increases In Size

VistaJet recently acquired Bombardier Skyjet International for an undisclosed sum, and is now the second largest business jet company outside North America. VistaJet plans to keep the Skyjet brand name.

According to VistaJet’s web site:

“The Skyjet transaction and current aircraft order will see VistaJet’s fleet expand to 94 jets by 2012. The Company recently forecast a 50 per cent increase in revenues for this year and expects to generate approximately 80,000 flight hours by 2012.”

VistaJet has also taken delivery of two big business jets, a Challenger 300 (its first) and a Challenger 605 (its second), from Bombardier.
