About the Gulfstream G280
When Gulfstream — a company synonymous with large-cabin intercontinental jets — turned its engineering attention to the super-midsize class, the result was unusual for the segment: an aircraft whose entire commercial argument is efficiency. The G280, certified in 2012, is what happens when a company that knows how to build long-range wings designs one for a smaller class instead.
The wing is the story. Gulfstream engineered the G280's airfoil for a level of fuel efficiency that translates directly into one of the longest ranges in the super-midsize segment: 6,667 km, enough for New York to Paris, London to Riyadh, or Geneva to Beijing's edge with up to ten passengers aboard. It cruises at 978 km/h, climbs directly to high altitudes, and delivers operational economics that frequently lead super-midsize operating-cost rankings.
At around €8,400 per flight hour, the G280 charges a modest premium for distinctly more aircraft — Gulfstream cabin standards, intercontinental-adjacent range and a level of efficiency that turns one-stop missions into non-stop ones across the segment. For clients flying longer super-midsize sectors with seats filled, the G280 is the type whose numbers reward checking twice.
Performance Excellence
Ten passengers, 6,667 km of range, 978 km/h cruise — and the wing efficiency that drives the data sheet: Gulfstream engineered the G280's airfoil to deliver one of the longest legs in the super-midsize class while keeping fuel burn among the segment's lowest. Two Honeywell HTF7250G engines deliver the thrust behind those numbers with the dispatch reliability the company is known for. Service ceilings above FL450 keep the aircraft over weather and traffic, supporting both ride quality and schedule. At roughly €8,400 per hour, the G280 prices distinctly within the super-midsize band while delivering range, cabin and pedigree that frequently outflank the rest of the class — Gulfstream's quiet argument that efficiency is its own form of luxury.
Cabin Comfort
Step into a G280 and Gulfstream's family resemblance is immediate: the same panoramic oval windows that distinguish the company's large-cabin flagships, scaled to the super-midsize fuselage. The cabin runs to about 7.6 metres of usable length, finished to the standard Gulfstream applies across its range, with a flat floor, a stand-up centre aisle and a level of detail rare in the price class.
Up to ten passengers travel comfortably in a layout typically configured as a forward double-club for working sessions plus an aft three-place divan that converts for rest on longer legs. Cabin altitude is held low and the air refreshes frequently, easing fatigue on the six-hour transcontinental sectors the type readily reaches. A proper enclosed lavatory sits aft, the galley supports hot service across the longest missions, and an in-flight-accessible baggage hold handles a full cabin's needs. The PlaneView 280 flight deck shows the company's flagship pedigree throughout. It is a cabin that uses every centimetre of its segment well, and feels — appropriately — like a Gulfstream.
High-speed WiFi keeps you connected throughout your flight, allowing you to work or stay in touch. A full galley enables fresh catering service during your journey. A private lavatory ensures comfort on longer flights.
