Gulfstream G280 vs Gulfstream G650er vs Gulfstream G700

The Gulfstream G280 is a super-midsize business jet optimized for regional and transcontinental missions. It typically seats about 8–10 passengers in a comfortable executive layout and offers roughly 3,600 nautical miles of range, making it well suited to routes such as U.S. coast-to-coast or shorter transoceanic segments with favorable winds. The Gulfstream G650ER sits in the large-cabin, ultra-long-range category. It commonly carries around 12–16 passengers and is designed for very long nonstop city pairs, with about 7,500 nautical miles of range. Compared with the G280, it adds a much larger cabin, higher cruising speeds, and significantly greater intercontinental reach. The Gulfstream G700 is a flagship large-cabin, ultra-long-range model positioned above the G650ER in cabin volume and onboard flexibility. Typical seating is about 13–19 passengers depending on configuration, and range is around 7,500 nautical miles. Its primary advantage over the G650ER is a longer, taller cabin and newer cabin/avionics features, while offering similar headline range.
