Bell Textron Inc. revealed at VAI Verticon 2026 new luxury interior options for the Bell 429 – the latest upgrade in the Designer Series offerings for the platform that was inspired by customer feedback to amplify their flight experience.

Designed to deliver a true VVIP experience, this interior is available in five elegant color schemes: Arctic Grey/Charcoal, Charcoal/Jet Black, Crimson/Jet Black, Sand/Jet Black, and Snow/Jet Black.
Key features include: •

• Upgraded Cabin Console: Available in four- and five-seat configurations, featuring additional storage, cupholders, a removable ice bin, dual USB-C plugins, and indirect floor lighting. Finished in five veneer options with white gold- plated accents.
Additional enhancements include:

•
Anodized Door Sill Plates: Precision-crafted and Bell branded for a seamless transition into the cabin.
• Premium Finishes: White gold-plated door latches and handles, wool carpet or simulated hardwood flooring, leather seat skirts, corporate soundproofing, and automatic door openers for crew, cabin, and baggage compartments.
Forte Leather Upholstery: Premium Italian leather seats with custom stitching, Bell logo detailing, and color- coordinated restraints.
• Composite Panels: Wrapped in leather for a soft, natural feel, enhanced sound dampening, and seamless elegance.
Bell launched the first Designer Series interiors with the Bell 429 at HAI Heli-Expo 2022. Since then, Bell has completed several deliveries of Designer Series aircraft to customers from Japan, New Zealand, Indonesia, and additional global operators.
