Gulfstream Aerospace showcased its new G800 at the NBAA-BACE airshow last week in Las Vegas. With a maximum certified range of 8,200 nautical miles (9,500 miles), the G800 is now the world's longest-range business jet, a title previously held by the Bombardier Global 7500.
Production of the G800 began after the debut of the G700 in 2019. The aircraft itself was announced in 2021 and only delivered recently, on August 27, 2025. The base price for this aircraft is $72 million.
N803GD is Gulfstream's first fully-fitted G800 to be displayed to the public. The interior of the demonstrated aircraft features three living areas with a dedicated crew compartment, seating up to 15 passengers. Gulftstream's website also shows other possible seating configurations, such as a 17-seat design with four living areas.
The interior of the aircraft is fairly spacious, with a finished cabin height of approximately 6.25 feet and a cabin width of approximately 8.2 feet. The interior has a length of approximately 53.5 feet, similar to that of an Embraer E135/Legacy 650.
“We have seen astounding demand for the G800, and the entire Gulfstream team is excited to begin making deliveries to our customers,” said Mark Burns, president of Gulfstream. “The G800 is entering service with extraordinary program maturity […] we look forward to customers around the world experiencing the aircraft’s remarkable capabilities and cabin comfort…”

The G800's debut marks a new chapter for Gulfstream, defined by ultra-long-range performance and refined luxury. By combining the proven platform of the G700 with advanced Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines and next-generation avionics, Gulfstream has effectively reaffirmed its dominance at the top of the business-jet market.
Competition from Bombardier’s Global 8000 still remains fierce, but the G800's early entry into service gives Gulfstream a head start in redefining what intercontinental travel feels like above the clouds.
