Which should you charter?
Pick the Global 8000 if you need the extra 2,970 km (1,604 nm) of range, you are a group of 16 to 19, headroom matters (the cabin is 4 cm taller) and you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 0.5 m longer).
On paper the Gulfstream G600 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 G600 is estimated at $13,000/hr against $17,500/hr for the Global 8000, about $4,500 less per hour. Charters are billed by flight time, so the faster Global 8000 saves about 6 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 8000 can fly New York (TEB) to Dubai (DXB) nonstop, 11,002 km. The Gulfstream G600 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.
