Bombardier and Elie SAAB Debut First-of-its-kind Collaboration, Introducing the Haute Couture of Aviation with Bespoke Global 8000 Cabin Design
Bombardier and ELIE SAAB are proud to unveil a bold new chapter in
business aviation: a bespoke cabin design for the Global 8000 aircraft that redefines the
onboard experience through the lens of haute couture.
This landmark, first-of-its-kind collaboration brings together Bombardier’s industry-leading
engineering and performance with ELIE SAAB’s timeless design expertise, elevating the world’s fastest(1) business jet’s cabin into a refined living environment where precision, comfort and
timeless elegance converge. The unveiling took place at Bombardier’s Aviator Lounge, the
company’s curated, immersive flagship in Monaco during the Formula 1 Grand Prix, placing the
project at the intersection of performance, design and refined living.
This collaboration reflects a natural alignment between two globally renowned brands, united by a shared commitment to serving a discerning global clientele with uncompromising standards of quality, precision, and sophistication.
“When we began discussions with ELIE SAAB, the Global 8000 was already well on the path to
becoming a certified, operational aircraft. This allowed us to go beyond concepts and rethink the cabin as a true living space, while fully respecting the performance and operational realities of
the aircraft,” said Éric Martel, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bombardier. “This
collaboration pushes the boundaries of business aviation and reflects our relentless focus on
elevating the customer experience.”
For ELIE SAAB, whose creative universe has long extended beyond fashion into the worlds of
design and interiors, the project was both intuitive and deeply personal. The Global 8000 cabin
has been reimagined as a sophisticated, harmonious space, defined by clean architectural lines, rich materials and a warm, timeless palette that enhances both openness and fluidity.
“With Bombardier, we approached this collaboration with an haute couture mindset, elevating
every material and detail into a carefully curated expression of luxury, precision and design
excellence. This project also reflects our desire to accompany our clients in their daily lives
wherever they are, extending the ELIE SAAB universe into every moment of their journey. It is
truly a new approach to private aviation, where travel becomes a seamless continuation of
refined living,” said Elie Saab Jr., CEO of ELIE SAAB.
