Since its introduction, the Gulfstream G650 has remained one of the most sought-after ultra-long-range business jets in the world. Combining exceptional range, high-speed performance, and a spacious cabin, the G650 continues to attract demand from corporations, high-net-worth individuals, charter operators, and government flight departments. Even with the arrival of the G700, the G650 remains a benchmark aircraft in the large-cabin marketplace.
Fleet Size and Availability
There are currently 3 Gulfstream G650 aircraft available for sale worldwide, representing 2.0% of the global fleet.
Inventory levels have remained exceptionally low over the past six months, fluctuating between two and five available aircraft before settling at three aircraft currently on the market. Such limited availability reflects continued owner retention and strong buyer demand for one of business aviation’s most capable long-range platforms.
With only a handful of aircraft available globally at any given time, buyers often face a highly competitive acquisition environment.
Market Listings
Current publicly advertised pricing is limited, with one aircraft listed at $30,500,000, while other sellers are requesting offers upon inquiry. Active listings currently average 356 days on market.
The elevated average marketing time is largely influenced by the small sample size and the highly individualized nature of G650 transactions. Aircraft age, total time, maintenance program coverage, interior configuration, connectivity upgrades, and pedigree all play significant roles in determining market value.
Given the limited public inventory, many transactions occur through direct industry relationships rather than open-market listings.
Sales Activity
During the past six months, 9 Gulfstream G650 aircraft have sold, including 6 off-market transactions, representing 6.0% of the fleet. Reported sales ranged from $33,000,000 to $41,000,000, with sold aircraft averaging 196 days on market.
Notably, two-thirds of all reported transactions occurred off-market, highlighting the importance of industry networks and private marketing efforts within the G650 segment. Transaction activity remains healthy despite the limited supply of available aircraft, demonstrating continued buyer demand for premium long-range assets.
Sales activity increased during May, with three aircraft changing hands during the month, the strongest monthly sales volume recorded during the reporting period.
Key Takeaways
• Only three G650s are currently available worldwide, representing 2.0% of the fleet

Key Insight
The Gulfstream G650 market continues to favor sellers. Inventory remains scarce, transaction activity remains healthy, and the majority of sales are occurring off-market. Buyers seeking premium aircraft should expect competition for quality examples, while current owners continue to benefit from a market characterized by limited supply and steady global demand.
