Coca-Cola's Gulfstream G600 N966RW flies from Marietta to Salt Lake City

The Coca-Cola Company's Gulfstream G600, tail number N966RW, landed at Salt Lake City International Airport on Monday, October 19, 2026. The flight departed from Dobbins Air Reserve Base in Marietta, Georgia, at 20:40 UTC and touched down at 23:55 UTC. The trip covered 1,370 nautical miles in 3 hours and 15 minutes.

The departure field, Dobbins Air Reserve Base, has a longest runway of 10,002 feet and sits at an elevation of 1,068 feet. The distance from the owner's home base at Fulton County Airport Brown Field to Salt Lake City International Airport is 1,371 nautical miles. The Gulfstream G600 is a stretched version of the G500 and has four passenger zones. Its top speed is Mach 0.925, or 515 knots.

The great-circle distance between the two airports is 1,370 nm, or 1,577 miles. The aircraft flew at an average ground speed of 421 knots and reached a top speed of 485 knots. Its highest altitude was 43,000 feet. Based on our estimates, the flight burned about 1,433 US gallons of fuel and released about 13,762 kg of CO2, roughly the same as driving a car 34,064 miles. The Gulfstream G600 is an ultra long range jet with a range of 6,600 nm, a ceiling of 51,000 feet, and seating for up to 19 passengers.

This was the only tracked flight by Coca-Cola's aircraft in the window from October 19 to October 19. There were no earlier landings at Salt Lake City in that window. In the 30 days before this flight, the owner's aircraft flew one flight totaling 4.7 hours in the air, with about 19,820 kg of CO2 emitted. The home base for Coca-Cola's fleet is Fulton County Airport Brown Field in Atlanta. The most recent flight before this one was on October 19, when N886RW, another Gulfstream G600, flew from Richmond to Monterey, covering 2,116 nm in 4 hours and 41 minutes.

The aircraft's estimated fuel burn is 440 US gallons per hour. In the tracked window from October 19 to October 19, the owner's fleet operated exactly one flight, which was this one. No other flights by any of the owner's three tracked aircraft occurred in that window.

The Coca-Cola Company has been buying Gulfstreams since the 1960s, and its flight department operates from Fulton County Airport Brown Field on Atlanta's west side. The tail numbers on its aircraft carry company history: N966RW ends in RW for Robert W. Woodruff, who ran Coca-Cola from 1923 to 1954, and the digits 966 do not match a date, but other aircraft in the fleet use numbers like 886 for 1886, the year the formula was created. Salt Lake City is a common destination for corporate flights, but no specific reason tied to Coca-Cola was found in the news for this trip.

The Coca-Cola Company is a global beverage maker with customers in more than 200 countries. Its flight department operates three Gulfstream G600s, including N966RW, which is a 2024 airframe. The aircraft is registered to Bank of Utah Trustee, a standard arrangement that shields the owner's name from the public registry.

This flight from Marietta to Salt Lake City used about 21% of the aircraft's range. The plane is now at Salt Lake City International Airport, which has a longest runway of 12,002 feet and an elevation of 4,227 feet.
