Where it fits well
- 476 kt cruise supports fast regional travel.
- 3680 nm advertised range creates a practical planning radius of about 2466 nm with 4 occupants.
- 2722 kg realistic payload proxy and 16 seats define the usable cabin mission.

The ownership trade-off
The G350 combines 16-seat jet capability with about 3,588 NM reported range and about 476 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision.
Cost picture at different usage
- 40 hours/year: about €825k per year ( €20635 per flight hour all-in)
- 80 hours/year: about €1.08m per year ( €13498 per flight hour all-in)
- 120 hours/year: about €1.33m per year ( €11118 per flight hour all-in)
- 180 hours/year: about €1.72m per year ( €9532 per flight hour all-in)
Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at €1.05m per year at 80 hours. Condition, engine time remaining and avionics matter more than the year itself — price the aircraft in front of you, not the model.
Limitations to price honestly
- The G350 combines 16-seat jet capability with about 3,588 NM reported range and about 476 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision.
- €499k fixed annual planning base before flying a single hour.
- Approximate 1544 m take-off requirement must be checked against runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading.
Recommended missions
- Family and small-group touring with a weight-and-balance check for every trip.
- Longer regional missions, with reserves and payload reducing brochure range.
- Time-sensitive business travel where dispatch reliability justifies the cost.
