Which should you charter?
Pick the Citation Longitude if you need the extra 180 km (97 nm) of range, you are a group of 11 to 12, you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 0.7 m longer) and you travel with a lot of luggage (112 cu ft of baggage space vs 105).
On paper the Gulfstream G200 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 G200 is estimated at $6,800/hr against $7,000/hr for the Citation Longitude, about $200 less per hour. Charters are billed by flight time, so the faster Citation Longitude saves about 3 minutes per 1,000 km flown. Real quotes depend on the operator, the aircraft's age and how far it has to fly to reach you.
Example trip: the Citation Longitude can fly London (LTN) to Toronto (YYZ) nonstop, 5,694 km. The Gulfstream G200 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.
