Bombardier Global 7500 vs Cessna Citation Xls vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Gulfstream G700

The Bombardier Global 7500 and Gulfstream G700 are ultra‑long‑range, large‑cabin business jets aimed at intercontinental missions. Both typically seat about 12–16 passengers in executive layouts, with maximum capacities higher, and offer ranges in the roughly 7,000–8,000 nautical mile class, enabling city pairs like New York–Hong Kong or Los Angeles–Sydney with favorable winds and payloads. The Global 7500 is commonly cited around 7,700 nm, while the G700 is commonly cited around 7,500 nm, with the G700 emphasizing a very spacious cabin and the Global 7500 noted for headline range. The Cessna Citation XLS+ is a midsize business jet suited to regional and transcontinental trips, generally carrying about 7–9 passengers in comfort, with a range around 2,000–2,100 nm. The Daher TBM 960 is a high‑performance single‑engine turboprop, a different category entirely, typically carrying 4–6 passengers plus a pilot, with range around 1,700–1,800 nm, trading jet speed and cabin size for efficiency and short‑field flexibility.
