The in-flight entertainment system consists of a high definition video system, surround sound, multiple audio and video input options, a cabin management system, and three options for voice communications and connectivity.

The Legacy 500 is the first medium cabin business jet with digital flight controls, based on Fly-By-Wire technology, featuring side sticks.
