Airbus 318 Elite Charter

The Airbus A318 Elite, a member of the Airbus Corporate Jet (ACJ) family, offers a luxurious and spacious option for VIP travel, bridging the gap between traditional business jets and larger airliners. Here's an overview relevant to charter and acquisition through JETVIP:

Key Features:

• Spacious and Highly Customizable Cabin: The A318 Elite boasts a significantly larger cabin than typical business jets, with a length of around 21.38 to 21.62 meters (approximately 70-71 feet), a width of 3.70 to 3.72 meters (around 12 feet), and a height of 1.91 to 2.25 meters (around 6.2 to 7.4 feet). This allows for highly customized configurations, potentially including:
  • Multiple VIP suites with private lavatories (some with showers)
  • Spacious lounges and dining areas
  • Dedicated meeting or conference rooms
  • Private offices
  • Crew rest areas

This allows for comfortable intercontinental flights. Some sources even suggest ranges up to 7,400 to 7,600 km depending on the specific configuration and number of passengers.
