Cristiano Ronaldo Acquires €50M Gulfstream G650 Jet
Cristiano Ronaldo upgrades his private travel with a €50M Gulfstream G650 jet, combining luxury, speed, and efficiency for his global commitments.
Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the world’s most celebrated footballers, has made headlines once again by acquiring a Gulfstream G650 jet, valued at approximately €50 million. The purchase highlights Ronaldo’s penchant for luxury and efficiency, enabling him to manage his professional and personal commitments across the globe seamlessly.
The Gulfstream G650 is renowned for its state-of-the-art features, including a top speed of 610 mph (Mach 0.925) and a range of 7,500 nautical miles, allowing non-stop travel between continents. This advanced aircraft can accommodate up to 19 passengers and provide sleeping arrangements for 10, ensuring unparalleled comfort during long flights.
Inside the jet, Ronaldo enjoys three distinct living areas equipped with premium amenities, such as Wi-Fi, a multimedia entertainment system, an electric oven, a microwave, and a refrigerator. The cabin also includes customized storage solutions, including a personal wardrobe tailored for Ronaldo’s designer outfits, reflecting his refined taste.
One of the jet’s standout features is its personalized exterior. The sleek metallic body prominently displays Ronaldo’s initials, "CR," alongside a silhouette of his iconic goal celebration pose. This customization underscores Ronaldo’s branding prowess and attention to detail.
Before upgrading to the G650, Ronaldo owned a Gulfstream G200, which he sold for $24 million. The new jet enhances his travel capabilities, particularly as he juggles his career in Saudi Arabia with Al-Nassr, international duties with the Portugal national team, and other commitments in Europe.
However, the luxury comes with significant maintenance costs. Operating and maintaining a Gulfstream G650 can amount to $1.86 million annually for approximately 200 flight hours, with expenses increasing based on usage. Despite these costs, the investment aligns with Ronaldo’s status as one of the highest-paid athletes globally, earning an estimated $200 million annually, primarily from his Saudi Pro League contract and endorsement deals.
The Gulfstream G650 is favored by other global icons, including Michael Jordan, who owns a customized version of the jet. Ronaldo’s acquisition solidifies his position among elite personalities who value luxury, efficiency, and exclusivity in their lifestyle choices.
