A jet that travels

Most types on this site have a home region. The Challenger 350 does not. Its repositioning flights come from operators in North America, Europe and southern Africa in roughly comparable numbers, and the pairing that recurs most often is Cape Town to Johannesburg, with Fort Lauderdale to Teterboro and Kalamazoo to Toronto close behind. If you fly between countries rather than within one, this is one of the few super midsize types worth watching on every continent you use.

Inside

The cabin: a flat floor, six feet of headroom, club seating forward and a divan aft.

The 350 is the reason the super midsize category exists in its current form: a cabin you walk down rather than crouch through, with a flat floor and a proper lavatory, on an aircraft whose running costs sit well below a heavy jet's. The usual fit is four club seats forward, a further pair and a three place divan aft, which is where the nine seat count on most listings comes from.

Notice and prices

A 350 leg is typically published a little over a week out and stays visible longer than most light jets, so it rewards a regular look rather than an alert only strategy. Published prices are uncommon but not absent; the record block above says how many carried one in the latest month, and where enough did, what the median was.

Specification: Challenger 350, GlobalAir. Entered service in 2014 as the successor to the Challenger 300; the 3500 followed in 2022.

Bombardier Challenger 350: specification and background

The 350 of 2014 took the Challenger 300 and gave it more powerful HTF7350 engines, canted winglets, a new cockpit and a redesigned cabin, adding range and improving hot and high performance. It became the best selling super midsize jet of the following decade, with large fractional fleets in the United States and a wide spread of charter operators elsewhere, which is why it turns up on this board from more countries than any other aircraft in its class.
