The jet that defined the ultra-long-range class. Here's what a Gulfstream G650 and G650ER cost to buy, charter and run in 2026.
The Gulfstream G650 and longer-range G650ER set the modern ultra-long-range benchmark: 7,000–7,500 nm nonstop, a wide, quiet cabin and one of the strongest brand premiums in aviation. Demand keeps pre-owned values high relative to most jets.

Because demand outstrips supply, quality pre-owned G650s can hold value better than most jets — sometimes trading near or above earlier list prices in tight markets. A rigorous pre-buy inspection and records review are essential at this value.

Yacht, Jet & EstateNew, the G650/G650ER listed around $65M–$70M; quality pre-owned trades roughly $40M–$65M in 2026 depending on year, hours and spec. Charter is about $11,000–$15,000 per flight hour.
The G650ER (Extended Range) flies about 7,500 nm vs 7,000 nm for the G650, thanks to additional fuel capacity. Cabin and performance are otherwise very similar.
Roughly $2.5M–$4M in annual fixed cost (crew, hangar, insurance, maintenance reserves) before fuel and trip costs, depending on utilisation and management model.
As an asset it tends to hold value better than most jets due to strong demand, but it remains a depreciating, cost-intensive asset. Buy it for the mission and lifestyle, with value retention as a bonus.
