Airbus Acj320 Neo vs Boeing Bbj 777 8 vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Dassault Falcon 900lx

The Airbus ACJ320neo and Boeing BBJ 777-8 are airliner-derived VIP platforms, while the Dassault Falcon 6X, 7X, 8X, and 900LX are purpose-built large-cabin business jets. In category and scale, the BBJ 777-8 sits at the top as an ultra-long-range, widebody VVIP aircraft, followed by the ACJ320neo as a long-range, narrowbody VVIP aircraft; the Falcons occupy the large-cabin/long-range business-jet segment, with the 900LX being an older but proven large-cabin trijet and the 6X/7X/8X representing newer long-range wide-cabin offerings (7X/8X are trijets; 6X is a twin). On range, the BBJ 777-8 is highest (roughly 10,000+ nautical miles), the ACJ320neo is next (about 6,000+ nm depending on configuration), then the Falcon 8X (about 6,450 nm), Falcon 7X (about 5,950 nm), Falcon 6X (about 5,500 nm), and Falcon 900LX (about 4,750 nm). On passenger capacity, the BBJ 777-8 can accommodate the most in VIP layouts (often dozens, potentially 50+), the ACJ320neo typically carries a few dozen (commonly 20–50), and the Falcons generally seat fewer (typically around 12–19, up to the low 20s depending on layout).
