Fuel burn and CO2
The G700 burns about 510 US gallons (1,544 kg) of jet fuel an hour, which puts out about 4.9 tonnes of CO2. Sustainable aviation fuel, where the departure airport has it, cuts the lifecycle figure.
| Flight | Fuel | CO2 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 flight hour | 1,540 kg | 4.9 tonnes |
| 3 flight hours | 4,630 kg | 14.6 tonnes |
| 8 flight hours | 12,350 kg | 39.0 tonnes |
Average block figures; real burn depends on weight, altitude and winds. Fuel at 0.8 kg per litre.

How much does a G700 cost?
A new G700 listed at about $79 million in 2025. Owning one also means paying to fly and maintain it, which is why most people who fly a few times a year charter instead.
Buy new
Factory list price reported by GlobalAir for Q2 2025; the list price was about $75 million when deliveries began in 2024 (CRAFT).
Buy pre-owned

G700 charter cost per hour in the UK (2026)
You pay for flight time, not the aircraft. Heavy jets like the G700 charter at about £9k to £14k per flight hour; the quote adds positioning, crew overnights, airport charges and taxes for your exact trip.
Heavy 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 Air Passenger Duty and any VAT.
- Empty legs can cut the price sharply when one matches your dates.
Charter or own?
Owning a G700 costs about £2.76 million a year before it flies (crew, hangar, insurance), plus about £8,300 for every flight hour. At the hours most owners fly, chartering costs less per hour, and you pay nothing when you do not fly.
| You fly | Owning (per hour) | Charter in the UK (per hour) |
|---|---|---|
| 50 hours a year | £63,500 per hour | £9k to £14k per hour |
| 100 hours a year | £35,900 per hour | £9k to £14k per hour |
| 200 hours a year | £22,100 per hour | £9k to £14k per hour |
| 300 hours a year | £17,500 per hour | £9k to £14k per hour |
Guardian Jet operating cost estimate (October 2026): crew, hangar, insurance and other fixed costs a year, plus fuel at $7.54 a gallon, maintenance and the engine programme per flight hour, for an aircraft flying 300 hours a year. Excludes buying the aircraft and depreciation. Charter rates are before taxes, positioning and airport charges.

Where the G700 can land
A 7,750 nm jet that needs about 6,000 ft of runway at full weight, and much less to land.
Runway needed
About 5,995 ft to take off at maximum weight at sea level, and about 3,150 ft to land at maximum landing weight. Hot or high airports need more.
