Bombardier Global 7500 vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Dassault Falcon 8x

The Bombardier Global 7500, Dassault Falcon 6X, and Dassault Falcon 8X all sit in the large-cabin, long-range business jet category, but they emphasize slightly different missions. The Global 7500 is generally considered an ultra-long-range flagship, offering the longest reach of the three at roughly 7,700 nautical miles, aimed at connecting far-flung city pairs with generous cabin space. The Falcon 8X is also an ultra-long-range tri-jet, typically rated around 6,450 nautical miles, pairing intercontinental capability with strong short-field performance and operational flexibility. The Falcon 6X is a newer long-range large-cabin model, usually quoted around 5,500 nautical miles, prioritizing a very wide, tall cabin and efficient long-haul capability, though with less range than the other two. In passenger terms, all three commonly fly 8 to 14 passengers in typical executive layouts; the Global 7500 often accommodates around 8–19 depending on configuration, while the Falcon 6X and 8X are commonly arranged for roughly 12–16, with maximum seating varying by operator and certification options.
