Bombardier Global 8000 vs Dassault Falcon 10x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G800 1
All four are ultra/long‑range business jets, but they separate into two tiers for range and size. Bombardier’s Global 8000 and Gulfstream’s G800 sit at the top of the category as newest‑generation flagships with the longest legs, designed for the most demanding nonstop city pairs; each is in the roughly 8,000‑nautical‑mile class. Dassault’s Falcon 10X is also a flagship ultra‑long‑range jet, positioned close to that top tier, but generally quoted a bit shorter, in the mid‑7,000‑nautical‑mile range. The Falcon 8X is the established long‑range option in this group, typically around 6,450 nautical miles. Passenger capacity is broadly similar across all four when you count “typical” business-jet layouts rather than maximum-density seating. The Global 8000 and G800 usually carry about 13–19 passengers, the Falcon 10X is commonly planned around 8–19 depending on configuration, and the Falcon 8X is typically about 12–16, with higher maximums possible on paper but less common in real-world executive interiors.
