Which should you charter?
Pick the Challenger 300 if you need the extra 280 km (151 nm) of range, you are a group of 9, headroom matters (the cabin is 8 cm taller) and you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 1.7 m longer).
On paper the Gulfstream G150 does not lead on any of the figures above. Pick it when one is based closer to your departure airport, which cuts positioning cost and often the total price.
The Gulfstream G150 is estimated at $5,000/hr against $7,000/hr for the Challenger 300, about $2,000 less per hour. Real quotes depend on the operator, the aircraft's age and how far it has to fly to reach you.
Example trip: the Challenger 300 can fly Dubai (DXB) to Geneva (GVA) nonstop, 4,919 km. The Gulfstream G150 would need a fuel stop on that route.
Nonstop means within 90% of published range, before winds, payload and fuel reserves; the operator confirms each route.
