The price depends on the route, the dates, the season and where the aircraft has to come from. A full charter costs more than an empty leg, because you pay for the flight back too.

The 6,500 nm range is the figure Gulfstream gave in 2012, as reported by Wikipedia. GlobalAir lists a longer maximum range of 6,675 nm. Speeds, weights, cabin size and baggage are GlobalAir figures for the GV. Gulfstream's own page could not be read, and all ranges depend on passengers and reserves.
The Gulfstream GV was Gulfstream's first ultra long range business jet. It can fly up to 6,500 nautical miles, seats up to 19 passengers and cruises as high as 51,000 feet. Owners, charter operators and governments use it for the longest routes.
Gulfstream developed the GV in the early 1990s as an answer to the Bombardier Global Express. The first aircraft flew on 28 November 1995, the FAA certified it on 11 April 1997, and it entered service in June 1997. Gulfstream built 193 between 1995 and 2002.
The GV grew out of the Gulfstream IV. It has a new wing with a span of 93.5 feet, Rolls-Royce BR710 engines with FADEC controls, a fuselage 5 feet longer ahead of the door and 2 feet longer behind the wing, and a ceiling of 51,000 feet instead of 45,000. The improved GV-SP, sold as the G550, replaced it in 2003.
Most GVs fly for companies and private owners. The US military uses the type as the C-37A, and the US Air Force, Army, Navy and Coast Guard all fly it. One GV also works as a research aircraft for the National Center for Atmospheric Research.

Buyers often compare the GV with the Bombardier Global Express, which sells at a similar price. A Business and Commercial Aviation review found that the GV has more range and burns less fuel. The Global Express has better runway performance, a larger cabin and a softer ride.
The 6,500 nm range is the figure Gulfstream gave in 2012, as reported by Wikipedia. GlobalAir lists a longer maximum range of 6,675 nm. Speeds, weights, cabin size and baggage are GlobalAir figures for the GV. Gulfstream's own page could not be read, and all ranges depend on passengers and reserves.
Layouts differ. Wikipedia says it typically carries 14 passengers with four crew, and GlobalAir shows a layout for 16. The most the type can seat is 19.
Gulfstream quotes up to 6,500 nautical miles. That is enough for flights such as Tokyo to New York, depending on passengers, winds and reserves.
GlobalAir lists a normal cruise of 488 knots and a top speed of 508 knots. Wikipedia gives a maximum speed of Mach 0.885 and a ceiling of 51,000 feet.
No. Gulfstream built 193 GVs between 1995 and 2002. The improved GV-SP, sold as the G550, replaced it in 2003.
