The company said BOND also announced that the order includes Challenger and Global aircraft, with deliveries scheduled to begin in 2027. BOND will benefit from the company's full suite of maintenance and support services-including access to its global network of service centers, 24/7 technical support, parts availability, and predictive maintenance tools.

Shares of Bombardier closed up 2.1% to $194.11 Tuesday on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
