What are the logistics like for someone who has something massive like a ACJ350 (don't believe any have actually been sold yet), 787 BBJ, or 747 BBJ? Obviously, they'd be a billionaire, so I'm talking about the logistics for their team and FBOs.

If money was no object, are those aircraft that you can take into a large commercial airport on the same kind of notice that you would a regular ACJ, BBJ, Global, or Gulfstream?

Or do FBOs require days or weeks to be able to have the equipment on hand capable to push/service an aircraft of that size?

Do regular ACJs and BBJs face an obstacles because of their weight? Same question for the larger globals and gulfstreams?

Thanks in advance, just trying to satisfy a curiosity hahah!
I'll bite. What's a BBJ/ACJ?
