Ultra-long-range jets are the pinnacle of private aviation: they can cross oceans without refuelling and deliver you to the other side of the world in the same day. If you’re considering a flight from New York to Hong Kong, London to Sydney, or Dubai to Los Angeles, you’re looking at the kind of aircraft that make those missions possible.

What “Ultra-Long-Range” Means

In practice, ultra-long-range usually means 6,000 nautical miles or more. That’s enough for most non-stop transatlantic and transpacific routes, and even some of the longest city pairs (e.g. Singapore–San Francisco, London–Tokyo). The aircraft in this class typically have large, comfortable cabins, low cabin altitude for reduced fatigue, and the fuel capacity to fly 12–16 hours in one leg.

Gulfstream G700 & G650ER

The Gulfstream G700 is the newest and longest-range Gulfstream, with 7,750 nm range and one of the largest cabins in business aviation. The G650ER remains a benchmark at 7,500 nm—it’s the aircraft that redefined what “non-stop” could mean for private travel. Both are common on the longest routes and are often chosen for multi-timezone trips where minimising stops and maximising rest matters.

Bombardier Global 7500

The Global 7500 can fly 7,700 nm, putting routes like Sydney–Los Angeles or Hong Kong–New York within non-stop range. Its four-zone cabin is designed for dining, working, relaxing, and sleeping, so you step off the aircraft ready for a meeting or a holiday. It’s a frequent choice for corporate shuttle programmes and high-net-worth individuals who regularly cross multiple regions.

Who Flies Ultra-Long-Range?

These jets are used by executives with global responsibilities, families relocating or taking long holidays, and anyone who values time and privacy over commercial schedules. Chartering one is often more cost-effective than ownership for occasional long trips. To see full specs and compare ultra-long-range aircraft, visit our fleet page or request a quote for your route.
