Airbus Acj350 vs Boeing Bbj 787 vs Gulfstream G400 vs Gulfstream G700

The Airbus ACJ350 and Boeing BBJ 787 sit in the “VIP airliner” category, offering true intercontinental capability and the most internal volume. The ACJ350 is typically positioned around roughly 10,000–11,000 nautical miles of range, while the BBJ 787 is generally in a similar long-haul bracket (often cited around 9,000–10,000+ nautical miles depending on variant and fit). Passenger capacity in private configurations is highly variable, but both commonly accommodate several dozen passengers comfortably, and can be configured for far higher counts than purpose-built business jets. The Gulfstream G700 and G400 are large-cabin business jets, optimized for speed, access to smaller airports, and efficient long-range missions with fewer passengers than VIP airliners. The G700 is the longer-range flagship at about 7,500 nautical miles, typically carrying around 12–19 passengers in luxury layouts. The G400 is a slightly smaller, long-range large-cabin jet at about 4,200 nautical miles, also commonly arranged for roughly 8–16 passengers, emphasizing transcontinental missions rather than ultra-long-haul.
