Operational context
The Chicago – Dubaï sector links Chicago Executive (KPWK) to Dubaï Al Maktoum (OMDW) over 11,655 km great-circle, about 13h11 airborne in a Gulfstream G650ER. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Dubaï Al Maktoum (4500 m runway). At this range a Gulfstream G650ER avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
