Bombardier Global 6500 vs Gulfstream G650er vs Gulfstream G700

The Bombardier Global 6500, Gulfstream G650ER, and Gulfstream G700 are all long-range large-cabin business jets, but they occupy slightly different tiers. The Global 6500 sits in the large-cabin, long-range category and is typically positioned as a high-comfort intercontinental jet with strong cabin amenities and efficiency. The Gulfstream G650ER is an ultra-long-range large-cabin flagship-class aircraft known for maximizing range and high-speed long-haul performance. The Gulfstream G700 is also an ultra-long-range large-cabin jet, generally viewed as the newer, more spacious “next-generation” offering with a larger, more configurable cabin. On range, the Global 6500 is around 6,600 nautical miles, while the G650ER extends to about 7,500 nautical miles, and the G700 is roughly 7,750 nautical miles, giving the G700 the longest published range of the three. Passenger capacity varies by configuration, but typical layouts are about 12–16 passengers for the Global 6500, about 14–17 for the G650ER, and about 13–19 for the G700, with the G700 usually offering the most cabin volume and flexibility.
