“The two BBJ MAX 8s are a great addition to the Comlux fleet because they give our customers the flexibility to fly farther and also more comfortably thanks to the lower cabin altitude,” said Richard Gaona, President and CEO Comlux The Aviation Group. “The long-range capability of the MAX 8 is critical to all of our customers, but especially our Middle East customers who often use Comlux aircraft for long-haul flights.”
The two BBJ MAX 8s will be outfitted with customer interiors at Comlux America, a certified BBJ completion center.

“This announcement from a leading charter operator highlights the unmatched range, passenger comfort and baggage capability the BBJ products provide,” said Captain Steve Taylor, President, Boeing Business Jets. “We are pleased to work with Comlux as they position their fleet for the future.”
