Two speakers break down the Gulfstream G700, an $85 million jet owned by Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. It has five living areas, a master suite, showers, and a cabin altitude of 2,916 feet that reduces jet lag. One argues it's pure status; the other says buyers need the range and comfort for actual use.
This is the private jet owned by not only Elon Musk, but also Jeff Bezos. Meet the Gulfstream G700.
Yeah, so the G700 is the latest, greatest aircraft that just started delivering last year. The top of the line for Gulfstream.
It's got room for up to 5 living areas with master suites with showers.
Can have 1 shower and not master suites. I mean, the airplane can be broken up into 4 or 5 different areas, so it's not sounding like it's a whole bedroom.
20 massive oval windows flooding it with light.
The windows in the Gulfstream 700 are the largest ones in the market today.
Flying nonstop from New York to Hong Kong. Inside, it's next-level comfort. A low cabin altitude of 2,916 feet.
Once you get to 3,000 feet, your body doesn't really sense a change in the altitude, so you can sleep better. Your body isn't as dehydrated.
Air purified every few minutes and circadian lighting to beat jet lag.
So what circadian lighting means is that it's basically changing the light inside the airplane for the time zone that you're in.
G700 isn't just a jet, it's a statement.
It is just a jet, and nobody buys these airplanes for a statement. They buy them because they need them. It's not really a statement. I don't know why they would say that.
No wonder Musk and Bezos couldn't resist.
Companies and people don't buy jets just because they can afford them. You will never see anybody buying an ultra-long-range aircraft for their own personal use. It just isn't true.
