So is imagine they'd stick with the Airbus.
Well, the A310 is 9600km range.

But if we have a jet just for the Prime Minister, and not be used as a military transport (which is technically what we have right now), I can see them going with a C-series. 5500km range, but replace parts of the cargo hold with fuel tanks, I would imagine that range could be boosted a fair amount.
