The Airbus A340-600 is the largest VIP airliner booked in Puerto Rico from San Juan (SJU), seating 50 to 100 with 7,800 nautical miles of range. It moves the biggest groups SJU to Europe, Asia, or across the Americas nonstop. One of the longest airliner fuselages ever built, in private trim.
Airbus stretched the A340 into the -600 from 2002, the longest of the family, cruising near Mach 0.82 at up to 41,450 feet on four engines. VIP conversions create some of the most spacious private cabins flying.

Why the Airbus A340-600 Fits Puerto Rico
From Puerto Rico the A340-600 fits the very largest private-airliner missions: a full delegation, organization, or event group flying San Juan to any global capital nonstop. It carries more people than any other option in the fleet.
When even the A340-300 runs short on space, the -600 is the ceiling for group capacity out of SJU.
