Bombardier Global 5500 vs Dassault Falcon 2000lxs vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Gulfstream G280 vs Gulfstream G400 vs Gulfstream G500

All six are large-cabin business jets, but they split into two practical categories: “super‑midsize/large” and “ultra‑long‑range.” The Gulfstream G280 and Dassault Falcon 2000LXS sit at the shorter end of this group, typically seating about 8–10 passengers and offering roughly 3,600–4,000 nautical miles of range, making them strong for transcontinental missions rather than deep intercontinental. The Bombardier Global 5500 and Gulfstream G500 step up into true long‑range large‑cabin territory, commonly configured for about 10–16 passengers and reaching around 5,200–5,900 nautical miles, enabling many transoceanic city pairs with comfortable reserves. The Dassault Falcon 7X is an ultra‑long‑range tri‑jet, generally accommodating about 12–16 passengers with roughly 5,900–6,000 nautical miles of range, valued for long legs and operational flexibility. The Gulfstream G400 fits between the G280 and G500 as a long‑range large‑cabin jet, typically around 10–16 passengers with about 4,200 nautical miles of range. Configurations vary by operator, so “capacity” depends on cabin layout.
