Operational context
The Genève – Le Cap sector links Genève Cointrin (LSGG) to Cape Town International (FACT) over 9,005 km great-circle, about 10h15 airborne in a Gulfstream G650ER. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Cape Town International (3201 m runway). At this range a Gulfstream G650ER avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
