"Starting at $78 million, the Gulfstream G700 sits firmly in the realm of the top 0.01%. Delivery of the G700 began in mid-2024, so only a handful are in operation today, making it one of the rarest and most sought-after new jets. It's like a flying penthouse larger than some New York City apartments. Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos own their G700s outright, a stark display of what unlimited money can buy."
"Instead, a few private aviation companies offer access to the luxe G700. During media events in 2024 and 2025, I toured two such examples: one from Flexjet, worth $96 million, and another from launch customer Qatar Executive, Qatar Airways' private arm, worth $81 million. The pricing difference likely reflects custom configurations, delivery timing, and the mix of add-ons for each aircraft. Both cabins are exactly the grandeur I expect from a flight worth hundreds of thousands of dollars."
Delivery of the Gulfstream G700 began in mid-2024, making only a handful operational and positioning the model among the rarest new long-range business jets. Base prices start at $78 million, while examples shown carry price tags of about $81 million and $96 million depending on custom configuration and delivery timing. Hourly charter rates and access options cost at least $20,000 per hour. Cabin layouts offer bedroom, galley, lounge, meeting/dining area, and bathrooms, creating apartment-like long-range comfort; configurations and passenger counts vary subtly between operators. Demand for large, long-range private jets continues to grow despite broader economic slowing.
