San Francisco sits well for transpacific flying, and a long range jet turns those trips into a single leg rather than two.
Gulfstream introduced the Gulfstream G700 in 2024. It seats 13 to 19 with a published range of 7,500 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 488 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 51,000 feet, 195 cubic feet of baggage volume and multiple lavatories.

Why the Gulfstream G700 Fits San Francisco
Out of the Bay Area, this is an aircraft that fits a particular kind of trip. With 7,500 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from the Bay Area to destinations such as Chicago, Washington and London, allowing for reserves and routing. Tahoe and the Sierra run from late November to around late May, and mountain airports bring density altitude into the aircraft choice.
In the Bay Area this size of aircraft is usually discussed against San Francisco International (KSFO), Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport (KOAK) and Mineta San Jose International (KSJC), which are the region’s primary fields and the ones that handle customs. Whether it can use a particular airport on your date is the operator’s call for that aircraft, that weight and that day, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.
How Bay Area Clients Use the Gulfstream G700
For transpacific and transatlantic trips out of the Bay Area, this is the aircraft class that removes the fuel stop. Cabins are configured for sleeping as much as for working, because the flights are long enough to need both.
Tell us the route, the passenger count and what is traveling with you, and your advisor will confirm whether this aircraft is the right fit or point you to a better one. We will also tell you which Bay Area field makes the most sense for the trip.
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.
- 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.
