American Express's Gulfstream G600, tail number N604GB, flew from London Luton Airport (EGGW) in the United Kingdom to Toronto Pearson International Airport (CYYZ) in Canada on Sunday, October 25, 2026. The flight departed at 20:18 UTC and landed at 03:26 UTC, spending 7 hours 8 minutes in the air. This was the aircraft's second transatlantic trip in the last two weeks.

The aircraft is a stretched G500 with four passenger zones. It burns about 440 US gallons of fuel per hour. London Luton Airport has a longest runway of 7,093 feet at an elevation of 526 feet. Toronto Pearson International Airport has a longest runway of 11,120 feet at an elevation of 569 feet.

The great-circle distance between the two airports is 3,082 nautical miles, or 3,547 miles. The aircraft averaged a ground speed of 432 knots and reached a top speed of 488 knots at a highest altitude of 43,000 feet. Based on our estimates, the flight burned about 3,137 US gallons of fuel and produced about 30.1 metric tons of CO2, roughly the same as driving a car 74,582 miles. The Gulfstream G600 is an ultra-long-range jet with a range of 6,600 nautical miles, a top speed of Mach 0.925, and a ceiling of 51,000 feet. It typically seats 10 passengers and can carry up to 19.

Toronto Pearson is not a frequent stop for American Express's fleet. In the 30 days before this flight, only one other landing at Toronto was recorded: on October 13, 2026, when Gulfstream G600 N609GB arrived from Newburgh. American Express's home base is New York Stewart International Airport (KSWF) in Newburgh, New York. Over the last month, the most common destinations for the company's four jets were Newark (14 landings), Newburgh (10 landings), and Luton (2 landings). Recent trips by the fleet include a Newark-to-Luton flight on October 22, 2026, by the same aircraft, N604GB.

The longest leg in that period was a Newark-to-London flight on October 11, 2026, covering 3,021 nautical miles. That flight was also operated by N604GB.

American Express Company is a global payments and travel-services corporation headquartered in New York City at 200 Vesey Street. Its corporate flight department operates out of Newburgh, and its four jets are registered to American Express Travel Related Services Co Inc. Toronto is a major financial center and home to the Canadian headquarters of many global firms. No public events or meetings involving American Express in Toronto were found in the news for this date.

This flight used about 47 percent of the aircraft's maximum range. The aircraft had been on the ground at Luton for about three days before departing for Toronto.

The distance from the owner's home base at Newburgh to Toronto is 277 nautical miles. On the same day, another of the owner's jets, a Gulfstream G650ER with tail number N652GB, flew from Marietta to Newark and back. That aircraft also flew from Newburgh to Newark on October 24.

American Express's four jets have flown 40 tracked flights in the last 30 days, totaling 96.7 hours in the air and an estimated 420,717 kilograms of CO2.
