Bombardier Global 5500 vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Dassault Falcon 900lx

Bombardier’s Global 5500, Dassault’s Falcon 6X, and Dassault’s Falcon 900LX all sit in the long-range business jet category, but they span slightly different missions. The Global 5500 is a large-cabin, long-range jet aimed at intercontinental trips, offering roughly 5,900 nautical miles of range and typically seating about 8 to 16 passengers depending on cabin configuration. The Falcon 6X is also a large-cabin, long-range jet, positioned with a very wide and tall cabin; it offers about 5,500 nautical miles of range and is commonly configured for around 12 to 16 passengers. The Falcon 900LX, while still a large-cabin aircraft, is generally considered a step smaller/earlier-generation in capability compared with the newest large-cabin designs; it provides about 4,750 nautical miles of range and typically carries about 8 to 14 passengers. In short, Global 5500 and Falcon 6X cluster in the newer long-range tier, while the Falcon 900LX is strong for transoceanic missions but with somewhat less reach.
