Bombardier Global 6500 vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Gulfstream G650er

The Bombardier Global 6500 sits in the large-cabin, long-range category, offering intercontinental capability with an advertised range of about 6,600 nautical miles and typically seating around 13 passengers in a comfortable executive layout (with higher-density configurations possible). The Bombardier Global 7500 moves into the ultra-long-range flagship class, with a published range of about 7,700 nautical miles and typically accommodates roughly 14 to 19 passengers depending on configuration, emphasizing multiple distinct living zones on very long missions. The Gulfstream G650ER is also an ultra-long-range large-cabin business jet, with an advertised range of about 7,500 nautical miles and usually seats around 14 to 18 passengers in typical corporate arrangements. In general, the Global 6500 is the more modest step for long-range travel, while the Global 7500 and G650ER compete at the top end for the longest missions; the 7500 usually leads on range and cabin zoning flexibility, while the G650ER remains a benchmark for high-speed, long-range point-to-point missions.
