The Gulfstream G650 is the aircraft most Orlando requests default to when the trip is genuinely intercontinental and the schedule is not negotiable. Eleven to eighteen passengers, 7,000 nautical miles, 488 knots of cruise, and the widest Gulfstream cabin in its generation.
Gulfstream built the G650 with two Rolls-Royce BR725 engines, a swept wing tuned for high-speed cruise, and a cabin wider and taller than the G550’s. Eleven to eighteen seats, 488 knots, and 7,000 nautical miles of range. Full specifications for the Gulfstream G650 / G6 are published by Gulfstream Aerospace.

Why the Gulfstream G650 / G6 Fits Orlando
Seven thousand nautical miles is the longest reach in this category, and from Orlando that is what puts London, Dubai, Singapore, and western Africa into the conversation as single legs rather than as multi-stop itineraries. Payload, winds, and the operator’s planning decide any specific nonstop, and we ask them to run the real date rather than quoting the maximum.
It is also the fastest aircraft in this category at 488 knots, which on a ten-hour transatlantic or Pacific leg is measured in hours rather than minutes. For executives and delegations running a hard international schedule out of Orlando, that is generally the reason the G650 wins over a Global 6000.
Demand for this type in Florida is high and the charter fleet is finite, so the winter and spring convention season is when a G650 request most often comes back with limited options. Lead time is worth more here than on any other aircraft we arrange.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates; reports may be provided on request.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
