About the Gulfstream G280
The Gulfstream G280 brings Gulfstream’s renowned cabin quality and engineering to the super-midsize category. With 3,400 nm of range, it has the longest legs of any super-midsize jet, covering routes like London to the Canary Islands, Egypt, or eastern Turkey non-stop. The PlaneView280 flight deck and Gulfstream build quality deliver a premium experience.
Who Charters This Aircraft
Travellers who want the Gulfstream experience without heavy-jet pricing, groups heading to destinations at the edge of midsize range, and business travellers who value the brand and cabin comfort. The G280 is a natural feeder for clients who may later step up to the G650ER.
Charter Cost Context
At £3,800–£5,200 per hour, the G280 is competitively priced against the Challenger 350. A London to Nice flight costs approximately £8,500–£11,700. The extra range means it can reach destinations that require a fuel stop in competing aircraft, saving both time and repositioning costs.
