Bombardier Global 8000 vs Gulfstream G280 vs Gulfstream G400 vs Gulfstream G500 vs Gulfstream G700 vs Gulfstream G800 1

Bombardier’s Global 8000 and Gulfstream’s G800 and G700 sit in the ultra-long-range, large-cabin class. The Global 8000 is designed for about 8,000 nautical miles and typically accommodates around 13–19 passengers depending on layout. Gulfstream’s G800 targets roughly 8,000 nm as well with a similar typical capacity (about 13–19), while the larger-cabin G700 emphasizes volume and comfort with a slightly shorter nominal range (about 7,500 nm) and comparable seating. Gulfstream’s G500 and G400 are long-range, large-cabin jets in the next tier down. The G500 is generally around 5,300 nm with typical seating about 12–15. The G400 is expected around 4,200 nm with roughly 12 passengers typical. The Gulfstream G280 is a super-midsize jet, notably smaller and lighter than the others, with about 3,600 nm range and typical capacity around 8–10 passengers. Actual payload-range and seating vary by configuration, reserves, and conditions.
