Bombardier Global 8000 vs Dassault Falcon 10x vs Gulfstream G800 1

Bombardier’s Global 8000, Dassault’s Falcon 10X, and Gulfstream’s G800 all sit in the ultra-long-range, large-cabin business jet category, aimed at nonstop intercontinental missions with premium comfort. In range terms, the Global 8000 is designed to be the longest-legged of the three at about 8,000 nautical miles, positioning it for routes such as New York–Dubai or Singapore–Los Angeles under favorable conditions. The Gulfstream G800 follows closely at roughly 8,000 nautical miles as well, effectively competing head-to-head on global city pairs, with performance depending on payload, winds, and reserves. The Falcon 10X is slightly shorter-legged on paper at around 7,500 nautical miles but focuses on an exceptionally large cabin cross-section for the segment. For passenger capacity, all three typically accommodate around 8 to 16 passengers in common executive layouts, but they can be configured for higher-density seating, generally up to about 17–19 depending on certification and operator preferences. In practice, differences are often driven more by cabin dimensions and interior layout choices than by raw seat count.
