With plenty of cabin and luggage space, the Gulfstream G300 is the perfect charter option for covering international distances in luxury.
About this aircraft
- The G300 was certified in 2003, with just 13 manufactured before production ceased the following year.
- It can complete non-stop flights from New York to Los Angeles and Paris to Dubai.
- The generous baggage hold has space for 16 suitcases.
- A high-density cabin layout can seat 15 passengers with an extra seat in the enclosed lavatory, but the vast majority are configured for 12-14 passengers.
The Gulfstream G300 is one of the fastest heavy jets in its class, with a larger cabin and baggage hold than most of its competitors. Based on the successful Gulfstream IV (G-IV), it’s one of many variations including the Gulfstream IV-SP, G450 and G350.
Interior design
The Gulfstream G300 is a very spacious aircraft for up to 16 passengers. The cabin is normally divided into three distinct seating zones, with various configurations available.
A typical layout features a four-seat club in the front, followed by a divan and two further seats in the middle section. The aft section has four more seats in a conference style, an enclosed lavatory, and a galley large enough for preparing hot and cold food and drinks.
The G300 offers a comfortable onboard experience, with 12 signature windows and a 100% fresh air system.
Below are some typical configurations for a Gulfstream G300.

Technological features
The G300’s two Rolls-Royce TAY 611-8 engines give a total thrust output of 27,700 lbs. This means the aircraft can fly 14 passengers from Chicago to London at a speed of 0.8 Mach.
The aircraft features a Honeywell SPZ-8400 integrated avionics suite with a six-tube electronic flight instrument system. Instruments available for this avionics package include dual Collins 442 distance measuring equipment, triple Collins VHR-442B comms with dual Collins VIR-432 navs, a Honeywell Primus 880 weather radar, Dual Collins TDR-94D with flight ID and enhanced surveillance capabilities, and Honeywell head-up display (HUD).
History
Gulfstream announced the G300 in December 2002, immediately after ceasing production of the GIV. The new aircraft was designed to meet growing demand for a stand-up cabin with generous aisle space and comfortable seating, without the need for long-range capability.
The jet was first delivered in 2003 but, despite ticking various boxes for consumers, production ended just a year later. Despite its relative rarity in the market, the G300 offers charter passengers ample space, a large baggage hold and luxurious amenities.
