Vista Global Holding, trading as Vista, has placed an order with Bombardier Business Aircraft for forty Challenger 3500s, with options for 120 additional units. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2026 and will be phased over the next 10 years.
In a statement announcing the order, Vista said the deal forms part of a fleet expansion aligned with aircraft utilisation and regional demand. The group aims to consolidate its super-midsize fleet into a single platform to standardise the product and improve operational efficiency.
It is currently unclear under which Vista division the aircraft will be operated. The group comprises VistaJet (Malta), VistaJet (Germany), and Vista America. The US brand includes two Part 135-certified carriers, namely JetSelect Aviation and Jet Edge.
Vista operates a total of seventy-one Challenger 300 series aircraft, including thirty-five Challenger 300s, all under Vista America's JetSelect Part 135 certificate, thirty-five Challenger 350s, 25 of which are under VistaJet Malta and the remainder operated by JetSelect, and a single Challenger 3500 managed by JetSelect and commercially available.
Beyond this, Vista's fleet further includes several other Bombardier Business Aircraft, Dassault Aviation, Embraer Executive Jets, and Gulfstream Aerospace aircraft.
