Figures as published by each model’s sources (see the model pages). Sources may use different conditions, such as passenger load and cruise speed, so small differences are not like-for-like.
Beyond the numbers
What to weigh
- Your longest regular route with realistic load, not the maximum published range.
- Cabin layout and floor plan of the specific aircraft, not just the type.
- New or pre-owned availability, and model succession for out-of-production types.
- Maintenance programme status, which can outweigh differences between types.
- Crew availability for each type in your region.
Notes
G600
- A longer-cabin, longer-range sibling of the G500.
- Often compared with the Global 6500 and pre-owned G550.
Global 6500
- Three living spaces with long-range capability.
- Earlier Global models share the family name; confirm the exact model and engine.
