The world of ultra-long-range business jets has a new leader: the Gulfstream G800. Recently certified by the FAA and EASA in April 2025, the G800 redefines what is possible in long-distance air travel, combining breathtaking performance with unmatched cabin comfort. It’s not just a jet; it’s a mobile sanctuary designed for global travelers.

PERFORMANCE THAT SPANS THE GLOBE

At the heart of the G800’s appeal is its record-breaking range. The aircraft can fly an astonishing 8,200 nautical miles at Mach 0.85, officially making it the longest-range purpose-built business jet in the world. This capability allows for nonstop journeys that were previously out of reach, connecting far-flung city pairs like Los Angeles to Sydney or London to Buenos Aires.

The G800’s speed is equally impressive. With a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.935, it’s one of the fastest aircraft in Gulfstream’s fleet. This high-speed performance translates into significant time savings on long-haul flights, getting passengers to their destinations up to 1.5 hours faster on routes over 6,500 nautical miles.

A LEGACY OF INNOVATION

The G800’s performance is driven by a combination of next-generation technology and clever engineering.

• Powerful, efficient engines: The G800 is powered by two Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 turbofan engines, which offer class-leading fuel efficiency and a reduced environmental footprint compared to previous models.
• Aerodynamic design: Its advanced, high-speed wing and all-new winglets allow the aircraft to fly farther and faster while consuming less fuel.
• State-of-the-art flight deck: Pilots benefit from the award-winning Gulfstream Symmetry Flight Deck, which features dual head-up displays and active control sidesticks—the first in business aviation.

A CABIN ENGINEERED FOR WELLNESS

For passengers, the G800’s cabin is where luxury and innovation truly take flight. Gulfstream has meticulously designed an environment that prioritizes health and comfort, a concept they call the “Gulfstream Cabin Experience”.

• Customizable living areas: The cabin can be configured into up to four distinct living areas, or three living areas and a crew compartment. This flexibility allows for dedicated spaces for dining, working, relaxing, or sleeping, with accommodations for up to 19 passengers and sleeping for 10.
• Unprecedented air quality: A 100% fresh air system and plasma ionization technology ensure the air is constantly purified and never recirculated, minimizing the spread of germs and odors.
• The lowest cabin altitude: The G800 boasts the lowest cabin altitude in the industry, which reduces the effects of jet lag and fatigue. At 41,000 feet, the cabin altitude is kept at a refreshing 2,840 feet.
• Panoramic views and natural light: The signature 16 Gulfstream Panoramic Oval Windows—the largest in the industry—flood the cabin with natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere.
• Quiet and restful travel: Advanced soundproofing technology ensures a whisper- quiet ride, so passengers can work or rest without interruption.
• Dynamic circadian lighting: A sophisticated lighting system can be programmed to mimic the natural progression of sunlight, helping passengers adjust to new time zones more easily.

SETTING THE NEW STANDARD

The Gulfstream G800 isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a leap forward in the ultra-long-range business jet category. By pushing the boundaries of performance and engineering, and then dedicating equal attention to the health and comfort of its passengers, Gulfstream has created an aircraft that doesn’t just transport people—it elevates the entire experience of global travel. As deliveries begin, the G800 is set to become the flagship for a new era of business aviation.
