Gulfstream G700 is the stretched version of the iconic G650 business jet, designed and developed by Gulfstream Aerospace. Introduced in October 2019, the G700’s fuselage is stretched by 10 feet (3.0 m), allowing passengers significantly more capacity and comfort.
The Gulfstream G700 has an operational range of up to 7,750 NM (8,920 miles, 14,350 km). With that range, some of the world’s longest routes have become possible with the 19-seater business jet.

“Cruise at Mach 0.90 to travel faster with exceptional range, up to 6,650 nm/12,316 km. Beyond saving valuable time, fewer flight hours means longer periods between scheduled maintenance visits, higher potential aircraft value and fresher crews.”
