Airbus Acj Twotwenty vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Bombardier Global 8000 vs Dassault Falcon 10x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Dassault Falcon 900lx vs Embraer Lineage 1000e vs Gulfstream G650er vs Gulfstream G800 1
The Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty and Embraer Lineage 1000E are “VIP airliner” large-cabin conversions, optimized for spacious interiors and higher headcount rather than maximum distance. Typical capacity is roughly 18–50+ for the ACJ TwoTwenty (layout-dependent) with about 5,650 nm range, and about 19–30 for the Lineage 1000E with roughly 4,600 nm range. The Dassault Falcon 900LX and Falcon 8X sit in the long-range large-cabin business jet class, commonly carrying about 12–16 passengers; the 900LX is around 4,750 nm, while the 8X is about 6,450 nm. The Falcon 10X targets the ultra-long-range flagship category with about 8,600 nm range and typically 10–19 passengers. Bombardier’s Global 7500 is an ultra-long-range large-cabin jet at about 7,700 nm and typically 10–19 passengers; the Global 8000 extends that concept with about 8,000 nm and similar capacity. Gulfstream’s G650ER is a proven ultra-long-range benchmark at about 7,500 nm and typically 10–19 passengers, while the newer G800 pushes farther to about 8,000 nm with comparable capacity.
