Earlier this week, Vista brought its flagship Global 8000 to Greater China.

The tour was designed to promote its VistaJet and XO brands, according to a press release.

The tour included targeted media, prospects, and key stakeholders.

It visited Hong Kong and Shanghai.

Vista said its flight traffic in Greater China was up 32% last year, outpacing its 25% year-over-year growth across Asia Pacific.

WingX data shows Asia activity up 4% year-over-year through Week 20.

That follows 2.9% year-over-year growth in 2025.

Flights between Hong Kong and Shanghai were Vista’s busiest route in 2025, eclipsing flights between Hong Kong and Tokyo.

Last September, Vista launched its XO charter and membership platform in Asia.

Asia Pacific President Crystal Wong said, “Today’s ultra-high-net-worth individuals and corporations in China expect more than just access to an aircraft.”

She continued, “They seek the very best: the latest innovations, personalized service, and the speed and flexibility to match their demanding lifestyles.”

Wong noted, “This is why regional expansion is central to our strategy.”

She said, “Vista’s ambition is to deliver the ultimate client experience and offer the most comprehensive private aviation solution available anywhere in the world.”

Vista took delivery of its first Global 8000 in April.

It is an upgrade of the Global 7500 platform.

Vista said all 18 of its Bombardier flagships will be upgraded by the end of the year.

The upgrade adds speed and range.
