Having a commercial jetliner
serving as the ultimate business
jet also gives BBJ access to a
global network of what it takes
to efficiently operate an airplane
the size of a 737 MAX. More
than 1,500 737 MAX airplanes fly
about 700,000 passengers on 5,500
revenue flights daily to destinations
around the world.
While supporting customized
travel needs, the 737 airframe has
evolved to reduce environmental
impact from its first version of
BBJ in 1997 to the latest BBJ
737-7, 737-8 and 737-9, all part
of the BBJ 737 MAX family. e
newest models reduce fuel use and
emissions by 20% compared to
the airplanes they replace while
creating a 50% smaller noise
footprint.
In addition to these improvements,
Boeing is working with the
aerospace industry to decarbonize
air travel for all. For nearly 20
years, Boeing has been pioneering
global efforts to make sustainable
aviation fuels (SAF) a reality
and today, its efforts are more
energized than ever. e company
is acting on its commitment to
ensure all the commercial airplanes
Boeing delivers will be compatible
with 100% SAF by 2030 and is
establishing partnerships around
the globe to scale SAF production
for all.
