Where the Gulfstream G550 fits

The G550 is an ultra-long-range aircraft capable of connecting most city pairs non-stop, with a cabin configured for genuine rest on overnight sectors. It is a standard choice for intercontinental corporate travel.

Choosing between this and the alternatives

The G650 is faster and longer-legged again; the G450 costs less where the sector does not need the range. Compare hourly rates for every category in the private jet charter cost guide, and see the full large range on our large cabin aircraft page.
