Bombardier Global 7500 vs Cessna Citation Xls vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G700

The Bombardier Global 7500 and Gulfstream G700 sit in the ultra-long-range, large-cabin category, built for nonstop intercontinental missions. The Global 7500 offers about 7,700 nautical miles of range and typically carries 14–19 passengers depending on layout, emphasizing multiple living zones. The Gulfstream G700 is similarly positioned, with roughly 7,750 nautical miles of range and typical seating around 13–19 passengers, often optimized for spacious multi-zone cabins. The Dassault Falcon 8X is also an ultra-long-range large-cabin jet, but generally a step smaller in cabin volume than the two above. It delivers about 6,450 nautical miles of range and commonly accommodates around 12–16 passengers, with strong efficiency and runway flexibility. The Cessna Citation XLS+ is a midsize business jet, suited to regional and transcontinental trips rather than true intercontinental flying. Its range is about 2,100 nautical miles, and typical passenger capacity is about 7–9, trading long range and large-cabin space for lower operating footprint and easier access to shorter runways.
