How Much Does a Gulfstream Jet Cost?

Gulfstream publishes no price list. A trade handbook reports a typically equipped G800 at $80.4 million in 2026, and General Dynamics booked $59.58 million of aircraft revenue per delivery in 2025. The register, the airport data and the accident files show who owns the fleet and where it can land.

Gulfstream does not publish a price list. The nearest thing is a figure in a trade handbook: Business & Commercial Aviation's 2026 Purchase Planning Handbook, as reported by two aviation sites, puts a typically equipped G800 at $80.4 million. Gulfstream's parent, General Dynamics, gives a different view in its annual report. It delivered 158 Gulfstreams in 2025 and booked $9,413 million for building them, which works out to $59.58 million a jet.

That second number is not a price. It averages every model Gulfstream builds, from the smallest to the flagship, and it may include extras that buyers ordered. But it comes from audited accounts, and it lands inside the range the trade press reports.

What follows lays out those reported prices with their dates, then adds what nobody else prints: who is on the US register, where the used jets go, how much carbon an hour in a G650 puts up, and how many American airports could take a G700 at all. Every figure comes from a named source, listed at the end.

Nobody publishes one, so here is what gets reported

Gulfstream does not publish what it charges, so the trade press fills the gap with two kinds of number. One is a launch or list price quoted at an announcement. The other is a typically equipped price in Business & Commercial Aviation's handbook, which assumes the options a typical buyer takes. Neither is a quote, and the original handbook sits behind a paywall that we did not open. We read its figures as reported by other aviation sites and name the original publication and year beside each one.

Every row below carries its own year. Compare prices within a model, not across models, because the editions differ.

The handbook's own movement is the clearest signal. The G800 went from $72.5 million in 2023 to $80.4 million in 2026, 1.11 times the earlier figure. The G700 moved from $79.9 million to $84.9 million, 1.06 times.

The G800, Gulfstream's longest-range jet, is reported at $80.4 million. The G700, a shorter-range sister, is reported higher, at $84.9 million.

The likely reason is the cabin. The G700 has the longer cabin of the two, and the G800 trades some of it for range.

The bottom of the ladder is what changes the picture. A G450 built between 2006 and 2016 was reported at $9.95 million to $23.75 million on the used market in 2018. A G-IV from the early 1990s was reported at $1.6 million to $4.4 million. A Gulfstream is not always an eight-figure purchase. It is a purchase that keeps costing money after the check clears, a point we come back to below.

What General Dynamics says about the business

Gulfstream is a business unit of General Dynamics, and General Dynamics files an annual report. The Form 10-K for 2025 says Gulfstream delivered 158 aircraft, up from 136 in the year before, 1.16 times as many. Aircraft manufacturing revenue was $9,413 million. Dividing one by the other gives $59.58 million, an average across the line-up and not a price.

The same filing puts the Aerospace segment's order backlog at $21,828 million at the end of 2025. The report credits the rise in manufacturing revenue to more G700 deliveries and notes that the first G800 deliveries largely made up for the end of G650 production.

That ending matters. Gulfstream built 598 G650 and G650ER aircraft, and the last one left the line in 2025. The first G650 was delivered on 27 December 2012. Its replacement is the G800, which the annual report describes as the longest-range model, in service since 2025. The G700 passed 100 deliveries in 2026.

Six current models and a long tail behind them

Six models have current specification pages on Gulfstream's site. Their numbers come from those pages, which give range with eight passengers and takeoff distance at sea level, standard temperature and maximum weight. The G300 and G400 figures are labelled preliminary by the maker. The G300 is the planned replacement for the G280, announced in the second half of 2025.

Behind them sit the jets that built the reputation: the G550, the G450, the G650 and the older G-IV and G-V. Our guide to the types of planes places business jets among the rest. For how Gulfstream's rivals price their own ranges, see our pages on Bombardier jets, Dassault Falcons and what Learjets cost. At the other end of the market, a small Cirrus piston single costs a small fraction of any of these.

Who owns a Gulfstream, and where it is registered

The FAA register lists 2,963 Gulfstream business jets across every model group, and 2,690 of them (90.8%) hold a valid registration. The rest are expired, pending or cancelled. Valid does not mean flying: the register records ownership, not use, and not where a jet sleeps at night.

Model groups follow the labels on the FAA register. The G700 and G800 are young, so most of their records are recent registrations.

Source: FAA Aircraft Registry

Two things stand out. First, individuals barely appear. Of 2,690 valid registrations, only 20 are held by an individual (0.7%). Limited liability companies hold 1,430 (53.2%) and corporations hold 1,081 (40.2%). A Gulfstream is almost always owned through a company.

Second, the registration state. Utah leads with 555 valid registrations (20.6%), 2.1 times Delaware's 263, with California, Florida and Texas next. The state on the register is the registrant's address, not where the jet is based, and the registry does not say why Utah. The pattern fits aircraft held through trust companies and LLCs, but that is an inference.

The register also flags 55 valid Gulfstreams as fractional-ownership aircraft, and matches 24 to one named fractional operator. Those are small numbers against 2,690. Most Gulfstreams are owned outright or through a company, not shared.

The fleet is not old, but it is not new either. The median valid Gulfstream was built in 2012, and 63.4% of those with a usable build year were built before 2016. The newest models carry the youngest records: the G700 and G800 are still in their first years.

This validates calendar plausibility, not historical production. Exact models sharing a designation are not split by year. Sort valid recorded build years. Use linear interpolation at positions (n-1) times 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75. Age uses snapshot calendar year minus build year.

Where used Gulfstreams go

The FAA's deregistration file lets us see how many Gulfstreams leave the US register for another country. Since 2010, 804 cancellations carry an export country. Mexico leads with 89, followed by China (78), Brazil (77) and San Marino (63). The Isle of Man (54) and the Cayman Islands (52) come next.

The median age at export is 1 year, measured as the cancellation year minus the build year. That is young. Many of these jets appear to leave the US register soon after they are built, perhaps registered in the US for delivery and then sent to an owner abroad. The file does not give reasons, so treat that as a reading and not a finding.

An hour in a G650 puts up about a car-year of carbon dioxide

Gulfstream publishes no fuel burn. The figure we use is the average burn that Conklin & de Decker publish, as listed by Private Jet Card Comparisons, which gives no data date. It covers ten Gulfstream models and assumes two pilots and four passengers. The G650 is listed at 498 US gal per hour.

Multiply that burn by the US EPA's emission factor for jet fuel, 9.75 kg CO2 per US gal, and one flight hour in a G650 releases 4.8555 tonnes CO2 per hour. The EPA puts a typical US passenger vehicle at 4.29 tonnes CO2 per year, so one hour in the G650 is 1.13 times a whole car-year. The two measures are not identical, since the jet figure counts carbon dioxide from combustion only and the EPA car figure includes other greenhouse gases, but they are close enough for the comparison.

The G600, G700 and G800 have no published burn that we could find, so we leave them out rather than guess. Pick a model below and enter your own flight hours.

Emissions here are for combustion only. They exclude fuel production, and they are a fleet average, so a short hop with a heavy load can burn differently.

How many American airports can take one

Gulfstream publishes a takeoff distance for each current model: the runway the jet needs at sea level, in standard conditions, at maximum weight. The G700's is 5,995 ft. Of the 3,807 US airports that are open to the public and have a paved runway, 904 have a runway at least that long, 24% of them. The shorter-field G300, at 4,780 ft, clears 1,874 airports, 49%.

That is a cap, not a rule. Real flights are lighter than maximum weight, and hot, high airports need more runway than the published number. The count comes from the FAA's airport database. Pilots planning the rest of the trip will also want the charts private pilots use, and anyone heading north of the border should read our guide to flying a private plane into Canada.

Use the tool as a first filter. A pilot and the jet's performance charts have the last word.

The published sea-level, ISA, maximum-takeoff-weight takeoff distance is not a runway requirement for a real flight.

The price tag is the cheap part

We publish no hourly cost for a Gulfstream. No maker or regulator gives one, and many of the estimates online come with no source. What we can give you is the arithmetic of a decision most buyers face: charter it, or own it.

Owning has a fixed bill that arrives whatever you fly, such as crew, insurance, hangar and training, plus a variable cost for each hour. Chartering has only the hourly rate. The break-even is the number of hours where the two cross. Enter your own quotes below. Nothing is pre-filled, because a made-up default would only give you a confident wrong answer.

If your hours sit well below the break-even, charter or a card is cheaper. Well above it, owning wins. Near it, the answer depends on how much you value having the jet ready when you are.

What the NTSB files hold

Every NTSB entry is a real event, and the counts are all this page claims to know about them. The NTSB lists 61 accidents involving Gulfstream business jets from 2000 through 2025. Of those, 10 were fatal, with 64 deaths in total. The files also hold 2 events with no usable model label, which we leave out.

Counts only. The NTSB does not record how many hours the family flew, so these bars are not rates.

Landing is where 21 of the 61 accidents began, about 34%. One accident was the 2011 crash of a G650 test aircraft at Roswell, New Mexico, which killed 4 people. It happened before the jet entered service.

What to take from the numbers

  • There is no price list. The reported figures run from $1.6 million to $4.4 million for a 1990s G-IV to $84.9 million for a 2026 G700, each tied to a year.
  • The maker's average is $59.58 million a delivery. It is a mix of models and options, not a quote.
  • Expect a company, not a person. Only 20 valid registrations are held by individuals.
  • Read the state as an address. Utah's 555 registrations do not mean Utah is where the jets fly.
  • Check the runway, not just the range. A G700 needs 5,995 ft at maximum weight, which cuts the airport list to 24%.

Questions buyers ask

How much does a Gulfstream jet cost?

Gulfstream publishes no price list. Business & Commercial Aviation's 2026 handbook, as reported by two aviation sites, puts a typically equipped G800 at $80.4 million and a G700 at $84.9 million. Used jets are far cheaper: a G450 built between 2006 and 2016 was reported at $9.95 million to $23.75 million in 2018.

How much does a Gulfstream G700 cost?

The 2026 handbook figure, as reported, is $84.9 million for a typically equipped G700. The reported 2023 figure was $79.9 million.

How many Gulfstream jets are there?

The FAA register lists 2,963 Gulfstream business jets, 2,690 with a valid registration. General Dynamics reports 158 deliveries in 2025.

Who buys Gulfstream jets?

On the US register, companies and LLCs hold almost all of them. Individuals hold 20 valid registrations.

How much carbon does a Gulfstream emit per hour?

At the listed burn of 498 US gal per hour, a G650 releases 4.8555 tonnes CO2 per hour. Models without a published burn are not estimated.
