Global aviation services group ACC Aviation is partnering with Perigean Aviation to become the exclusive sales and marketing agent for one of Boeing’s most popular jets. The Boeing 757 will be operated by Freedom II and is configured with 62 VIP seats to fly passengers and luggage on trips of up to 5,200 miles.
The aircraft in question, a Boeing 757-200, is registered in Bermuda (VP-BBE) and will be available to clients worldwide beginning in mid-July of this year. The jet previously carried the likes of Liverpool FC, the US Women’s National Soccer Team, and Lady Gaga. Phil Mathews, CEO of ACC Aviation, expressed his excitement about the new undertaking:

The charter industry is experiencing incredibly high levels of demand for both private jets and larger commercial airliners, and this aircraft has historically serviced clients in both markets.
“ACC Aviation has a truly global network of partners built up over 20 years, and we are excited to be bringing this unique aircraft to the charter market”.
If you’re wondering about the airframe, it was originally delivered to ATA Airlines (American TransAir) in September 1999. The 22-year-old plane also spent time with Air Bashkortostan in Russia, before commencing its VIP life in 2008 with Greek operator GainJet Aviation. It was registered with its current owner in December 2021.
