3,600 nm at Mach 0.80 with NBAA IFR reserves, enough for New York to London non-stop.
Cabin 25 ft 10 in (7.87 m) long, 6 ft 11 in (2.11 m) wide and 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m) tall, with 19 large oval windows.
Two Honeywell HTF7250G engines of 7,624 lb thrust each and a PlaneView280 flight deck.
Approved for steep approaches, including London City and Lugano.

Fuel burn and CO2
The G280 burns about 286 US gallons (866 kg) of jet fuel an hour, which puts out about 2.7 tonnes of CO2. Sustainable aviation fuel, where the departure airport has it, cuts the lifecycle figure.
| Flight | Fuel | CO2 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 flight hour | 870 kg | 2.7 tonnes |
| 3 flight hours | 2,600 kg | 8.2 tonnes |
| 8 flight hours | 6,930 kg | 21.9 tonnes |
Average block figures; real burn depends on weight, altitude and winds. Fuel at 0.8 kg per litre.
G280 interior and cabin layout
Most G280s seat 8 to 10 in two areas: a four-place club forward and a lounge aft with a divan, a club pair or a conference group. Gulfstream offered three floor plans for 8 to 10 passengers. Every aircraft is fitted out by its owner, so we confirm the exact seat map, beds and Wi-Fi with each quote. The layouts below come from two dealer specification sheets.

G280 charter cost per hour in Germany (2026)

Super-midsize jets, per flight hour
What moves the price
- Positioning: one-way trips usually pay for the empty flight home.
- Crew overnights and waiting days on multi-day trips.
- Airport and handling fees, plus aviation tax and any VAT.
- Empty legs can cut the price sharply when one matches your dates.
Charter or own?
Owning a G280 costs about €687,000 a year before it flies (crew, hangar, insurance), plus about €4,600 for every flight hour. At the hours most owners fly, chartering costs less per hour, and you pay nothing when you do not fly.

Where the G280 can land
A super-midsize jet with transatlantic range that can also use short, steep-approach airports.
Runway needed
About 4,750 ft to take off at maximum weight at sea level and about 2,373 ft to land at maximum landing weight. Hot or high airports need more.
Steep approaches
The FAA and Israel had certified the G280 for 5.5 degree steep approaches by November 2016, and EASA lists the steep approach modification in its type certificate. By May 2017 it was approved for London City.
Alpine airports
Gulfstream flew the G280 into Lugano, Samedan (St. Moritz), Sion and Saanen-Gstaad in 2017.
