Operational context
The Marrakech – Johannesburg sector links Marrakech Ménara (GMMX) to Lanseria International (FALA) over 7,451 km great-circle, about 8h33 airborne in a Gulfstream G650ER. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Lanseria International (3000 m runway). At this range a Gulfstream G650ER avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
