Which should you charter?
Pick the Global 6000 if you need the extra 3,680 km (1,987 nm) of range, headroom matters (the cabin is 6 cm taller), you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 4.4 m longer) and you want a wider cabin (29 cm more across).
Pick the Embraer Legacy 650 if you are a group of 14 and you travel with a lot of luggage (260 cu ft of baggage space vs 195).
The Embraer Legacy 650 is estimated at $8,500/hr against $13,000/hr for the Global 6000, about $4,500 less per hour. Charters are billed by flight time, so the faster Global 6000 saves about 5 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 Global 6000 can fly Miami (OPF) to Sao Paulo (CGH) nonstop, 6,590 km. The Embraer Legacy 650 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.
