Manufacturers publish range under different conditions (passenger numbers, speed and reserves). Compare like for like with each manufacturer before deciding.
Gulfstream G700
The G700 has the longest cabin in Gulfstream's range, at almost 57 ft, with up to five living areas. It flies 7,750 nm at Mach 0.85 and has a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.935.
What to check before buying
Most G700s are new or nearly new: check the remaining manufacturer warranty, the engine programme transfer terms, and delivery-position contracts if you are buying a place in the production line rather than a built aircraft.
Bombardier Global 7500
Bombardier's flagship has one of the longest ranges of any purpose-built business jet and the longest cabin in its class, typically arranged as four separate living areas. It connects most of the world's major city pairs non-stop.
What to check before buying
Confirm warranty and engine programme transferability, completed service bulletins, and the cabin layout, which varies widely between aircraft.
