Dassault Falcon 7x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G600

The Dassault Falcon 7X and 8X are ultra-long-range trijet business jets, while the Gulfstream G600 is a large-cabin, long-range twinjet positioned slightly below Gulfstream’s top ultra-long-range models. In range terms, the 7X typically offers about 5,950 nautical miles, the 8X extends that to roughly 6,450 nautical miles, and the G600 is around 6,600 nautical miles, giving it the longest published reach of the three under typical marketing specifications. Passenger capacity is broadly similar: the Falcon 7X is commonly configured for about 12–14 passengers, the Falcon 8X likewise generally seats about 12–16 depending on layout, and the G600 is typically arranged for about 13–16 passengers. In practical use, the 8X and G600 are usually chosen when maximizing city-pair flexibility and payload at long legs matters most, while the 7X remains a strong ultra-long-range option with slightly less reach but similar large-cabin comfort.
