Bombardier Global 5500 vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Gulfstream G500 vs Gulfstream G650er

All four are long-range business jets, but they split into two broad size classes. The Bombardier Global 5500 and Gulfstream G500 sit in the large-cabin, long-range category, typically carrying about 8 to 16 passengers depending on layout. In range, the Global 5500 is roughly in the 5,900 nautical mile class, while the G500 is around 5,300 nautical miles, making the Global 5500 generally more “transoceanic” capable on tougher city pairs. The Dassault Falcon 6X steps up into the ultra-long-range, large-cabin category with a typical capacity similar in practice (often 10 to 16), but with a longer reach around 5,500 nautical miles and a notably wide cabin for its class. The Gulfstream G650ER is the flagship here: an ultra-long-range, ultra-large-cabin jet, typically configured for about 11 to 18 passengers, and offering the longest range of the group at about 7,500 nautical miles, enabling the most nonstop intercontinental missions.
