Airbus Acj Twotwenty vs Boeing Bbj Max 7 vs Bombardier Global 8000 vs Gulfstream G600 vs Gulfstream G650er vs Gulfstream G700
By category, the Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty and Boeing BBJ MAX 7 are “bizliners” based on airliners, optimized for space and comfort, while the Bombardier Global 8000 and the Gulfstream G600, G650ER, and G700 are purpose-built large-cabin business jets. On range, the longest legs come from the Bombardier Global 8000 (about 8,000 nm) and Gulfstream G650ER (about 7,500 nm), followed by the Gulfstream G700 (about 7,750 nm). The Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty is also ultra-long-range at roughly 5,650 nm, the Boeing BBJ MAX 7 is typically cited around 7,000 nm, and the Gulfstream G600 sits lower among this set at about 6,600 nm. On passenger capacity, the ACJ TwoTwenty leads for spacious multi-zone layouts and can be configured for roughly 18 to 50 passengers, and the BBJ MAX 7 can also be outfitted broadly, often around 19 to 50+ depending on mission. The Global 8000 and Gulfstreams typically seat fewer in executive configurations—commonly around 12 to 19—with maximum layouts generally in the high teens to low 20s depending on certification and interior.
