Boeing Business Jet

A different scale of private flight.

A Boeing Business Jet gives the familiar 737 a different purpose. Within the BBJ 737 MAX family, private rooms and open living areas create a sequence of spaces: a lounge for conversation, a table for dining and a bedroom behind its own door. On a long journey, that separation changes how people share the cabin.

The images here show several interior treatments, from warm timber and leather to sculptural contemporary lounges. They explore the breadth of BBJ design, rather than one identified customer aircraft. Each completion has its own character, built around the same generous proportions.

Rooms for the journey

Planning a BBJ starts with everyday use. A dining table might also host a meeting; a private room can become a bedroom, office or family retreat. Boeing offers bespoke completions alongside BBJ Select, a programme of pre-designed spaces. Its current configurator includes the 737-7 and 737-8, with Serene, Midnight and Earthbound palettes that owners can adapt further.

Boeing publishes up to 15 hours of nonstop flying for the MAX family and a cabin-altitude system maintaining the equivalent of 6,500 feet at maximum cruise altitude. Actual endurance depends on the model, completion, passengers and mission. The cabin gives that time a practical shape, with separate places to gather, work and rest.

Materials set the mood, but space is the lasting appeal. A desk remains a desk, the bedroom has privacy and the lounge can stay sociable. Several people can spend the same long flight differently, without continually rearranging the room around them.
