The Gulfstream G450 typically operates at cruising altitudes between 41,000 and 45,000 feet. This altitude range allows for optimal fuel efficiency and smoother flying conditions above commercial air traffic. The aircraft's performance capabilities enable it to reach these altitudes quickly, making it a popular choice for long-distance private flights.
The Gulfstream GV can climb directly to an altitude of 37,000 feet in eighteen minutes, then continue to 43,000 feet for a high speed cruise of 488 knots, or climb to 45,000 feet for a long-range cruise of 459 knots. The highest altitude that it is certified to fly at is 51,000 feet.
From $25.9 to $36.955 million
The fuel burn rate for a Gulfstream GIIb varies depending on factors such as altitude, weight, speed, and weather conditions. On average, this aircraft burns around 400-450 gallons per hour during cruise flight.

Passenger planes can't fly at 55,000 feet. Gulfstream business jets can fly 51,000 feet altitude, and airliners like to cruise at 35,000 feet. Some military planes, like the U-2, can fly at 55,000 feet or greater.

No, it is not recommended to fly if you have altitude sickness as it can worsen your symptoms and lead to complications.
Helicopters fly somewhat close to the ground. They fly near the troposphere. They fly at a lower altitude than planes.
Better fuel economy. The air is thinner at higher altitudes.
Aircraft typically arrive at an altitude of around 30,000 to 40,000 feet to operate and fly.
