Coca-Cola's Gulfstream G600 N890RW lands in Marietta after 1-hour flight from Indiantown

The Coca-Cola Company's Gulfstream G600, tail number N890RW, landed at Dobbins Air Reserve Base in Marietta, Georgia, on Wednesday, October 28, 2026. The flight departed from Indiantown Airport at 21:36 UTC and touched down at 22:59 UTC, spending 1 hour and 23 minutes in the air.

The trip covered a great-circle distance of 455 nautical miles, or 523 miles. The aircraft flew at an average ground speed of 328 knots and reached a top speed of 512 knots. Its highest altitude was 41,000 feet. Based on our estimates, the flight burned about 610 US gallons of fuel and released about 5,856 kg of CO2, roughly the same as driving a car 14,496 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 third landing at Marietta by any of Coca-Cola's three tracked aircraft in the window from October 19 to October 28. The last one was on October 22, when N966RW, another Gulfstream G600, landed there after a flight from Salt Lake City. The home base for Coca-Cola's fleet is Fulton County Airport Brown Field in Atlanta, just 8 nautical miles from Dobbins. In the 30 days before this flight, the owner's aircraft flew nine flights totaling 22.4 hours in the air, with about 94,673 kg of CO2 emitted. The longest leg in that period was a 2,117 nm flight from Monterey to Richmond on October 22 by N886RW, another Gulfstream G600. Two other tracked aircraft landed at Marietta in the 24 hours before this landing: a Bombardier Global 7500 belonging to Arthur Blank about 19 hours earlier, and a Norfolk Southern Embraer Praetor 500 about 6 hours earlier.

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: N890RW ends in RW for Robert W. Woodruff, who ran Coca-Cola from 1923 to 1954. The digits 890 do not match a date, but other aircraft in the fleet use numbers like 886 for 1886, the year the formula was created. Dobbins Air Reserve Base is near Coca-Cola's home base and is a common stop 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 N890RW, which is a 2025 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 Indiantown to Marietta used about 7 percent of the aircraft's range. The plane is now at Dobbins Air Reserve Base.
