Frequently Asked Questions — Gulfstream
How much does a Gulfstream G650 cost to own and operate?
A Gulfstream G650/G650ER costs $65-78 million new (production ended February 2025, making existing models increasingly valuable). Annual operating budget at 200 flight hours runs approximately $1.6 million. Direct operating costs are $4,250-$4,400 per hour, with maintenance averaging $2,012/hour. Variable costs total approximately $7,600/hour. The G650 has set 90+ speed records and flies nonstop for 8,000+ miles — the preferred jet of tech billionaires including Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk.
Gulfstream vs Bombardier — which is the better private jet?
At the flagship level, the Gulfstream G700 and Bombardier Global 7500 are remarkably close. The G700 offers slightly longer range and larger panoramic windows with the Symmetry Flight Deck. The Global 7500 has 14% lower variable costs ($3,178/hr vs $3,638/hr) and a marginally wider cabin. The upcoming Bombardier Global 8000 targets Mach 0.94 for the speed crown. Both represent the pinnacle of business aviation — the choice often comes down to brand loyalty, dealer relationships, and specific mission requirements.
What is the cheapest Gulfstream jet to buy?
The most affordable entry into Gulfstream ownership is a used GIV or GIV-SP from the 1990s, which can be found for $2-5 million. However, maintenance costs on older Gulfstreams are substantial — budget $500,000-$1 million annually for a 20+ year old airframe. The G200 (originally Galaxy) offers a slightly newer alternative at $3-6 million used. On AeroGurus, we list Gulfstream jets from the GIV through the G650ER, with the G200 and G450 being popular mid-range options.
Is the Gulfstream G700 worth the price over the G650?
The G700 lists at approximately $75 million versus $65 million for the G650ER (now out of production). The G700 adds a wider cabin, the all-new Symmetry Flight Deck with active-control sidesticks, 10 Gulfstream panoramic oval windows, and up to five living areas. Range is comparable at 7,500 nm. For buyers focused on cabin experience and latest technology, the G700 justifies the premium. For range-focused missions, a well-maintained G650ER at a lower used price may offer better value.
Who owns Gulfstream?
Gulfstream Aerospace is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation (NYSE: GD), a Fortune 100 aerospace and defense company. General Dynamics acquired Gulfstream in 1999 and has invested heavily in new product development, resulting in the G500, G600, G650, G700, and upcoming G800 programs. Gulfstream is headquartered in Savannah, Georgia, where it also operates its primary manufacturing facility.
