Overview

  • The program will extend to both existing hubs and additional strategic markets, although specific new locations have not been disclosed.
  • The company plans to recruit numerous airframe and powerplant technicians through expanded apprenticeship and talent programs to meet rising service demand.
  • Its U.S. infrastructure already includes service centers in Dallas, Miami Opa-Locka, Tucson, Hartford, and Wichita, plus a parts distribution hub in Chicago and 20 mobile response teams.
  • Bombardier describes the investment as key to deepening customer relationships by providing localized, manufacturer-backed maintenance and care.
  • NetJets has ordered 24 Global 8000 jets, which are expected to be certified and enter service later in 2025.
