Bombardier Global 5500 vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Gulfstream G500

All three are long-range, large-cabin business jets, but they sit in slightly different niches. The Bombardier Global 5500 is a purpose-built long-range large-cabin jet optimized for comfort and efficiency on intercontinental missions, offering a range of about 5,900 nautical miles and typically seating around 10 to 16 passengers depending on layout. The Dassault Falcon 7X is a long-range large-cabin trijet known for short-field flexibility and strong airport performance, with a range around 5,950 nautical miles and a typical capacity of roughly 10 to 16 passengers. The Gulfstream G500 is also a long-range large-cabin jet, generally positioned a step below the ultra-long-range G650 class, with a range of about 5,300 nautical miles and typical seating in the 9 to 16 passenger range. In practical terms, the Global 5500 and Falcon 7X are closer peers on maximum range, while the G500 is slightly shorter-legged but remains firmly in the intercontinental category with a similarly sized cabin and comparable passenger counts.
