If you were going West the difference would be greater as the G350 would be above the winds at FL450.

WSCoDDriver doesn't know about this "above the winds" thing that one can enjoy operating up in the 40's. Or for that matter, the "above the turbulence" thing. Or the "above the weather" thing. You see, in his vast experience as a regional puke doing the "Newark the Cleveland thing", he's never been up there.
And since he's never been there (and oh shall we count all the other ways too?), he can't see how this could POSSIBLY be important, nor thinks his boss or (once again drawing upon his vast corporate experience)......indeed anyone's boss or Board, should factor this type of Flexibility/Comfort/Efficiency "tomfoolery into their aircraft procurement decisions.
Yes indeed, undoubtedly he can "enlighten" us, because the years he spent in the airline womb behind that locked cockpit door (where "Pax Comfort and Convenience" falls somewhere about #10 on the priority list and Mexico is considered "international) has leapfrogged him ahead in the arena of corporate aircraft knowledge.
Why, he's complely unfettered by an even fair-to-middlin' background of actual corporate flying experience that chains the rest of us down, and his utter lack of knowledge about aircraft already fulfilling the role that his woodie-producing WSCoD does keeps his viewpoint fresh and untainted! Best of all, his airline mentality brings to us not only the novel idea that "lower and slower is better", but also the piercing insight that you can best serve the company that pays your salary by having your fellow employees-pax arrive at their destination later....and more fatigued!
Dammnation! If only I'd learned long ago that there's no difference between revenue-flying bargain-hunting flip-flopped strangers... where you can tell them to sit down, shut up and "just be happy we're getting you there as cheaply as possible"... and the execs, corportations, etc, who shell out millions to buy what essentially amounts to transportation flexibility and time savings! Jaysus WSCoD Driver, you oughta be a consultant!
Of course, nothing can do all this....and soooo much more....better than a Yak.
