Dassault Falcon 6x vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G800

In category, the Dassault Falcon 6X is a large-cabin, long-range business jet positioned below the ultra-long-range flagship segment, while the Falcon 7X and 8X are ultra-long-range trijets, with the 8X being the newer, longer-legged evolution of the 7X. The Gulfstream G800 sits in the ultra-long-range, high-end large-cabin category and is aimed squarely at the top of the range and speed class. On range, the Falcon 6X is typically quoted around 5,500 nautical miles, making it well suited to many transatlantic missions. The Falcon 7X is around 5,950 nautical miles, and the Falcon 8X extends that to roughly 6,450 nautical miles. The G800 leads this group with a published range around 8,000 nautical miles, enabling more nonstop city pairs and greater routing flexibility. For passenger capacity, these jets are generally configured for about 12 to 16 passengers. The Falcon 6X is often arranged in that band, the Falcon 7X and 8X similarly, and the G800 commonly supports comparable typical loads, with maximum certified seating usually higher depending on configuration.
