Which should you charter?
Pick the Falcon 7X if you need the extra 3,200 km (1,728 nm) of range, you are a group of 14, you want a wider cabin (10 cm more across) and you want the shorter flight time (it cruises 50 km/h faster).
Pick the Gulfstream GIV-SP if you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 1.8 m longer) and you travel with a lot of luggage (169 cu ft of baggage space vs 140).
The Gulfstream GIV-SP is estimated at $8,800/hr against $12,500/hr for the Falcon 7X, about $3,700 less per hour. Charters are billed by flight time, so the faster Falcon 7X saves about 4 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 Falcon 7X can fly London (LTN) to Miami (OPF) nonstop, 7,098 km. The Gulfstream GIV-SP 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.
