Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G600

Both the Dassault Falcon 8X and the Gulfstream G600 sit in the large-cabin, long-range business jet category, but they emphasize slightly different strengths. The Falcon 8X is generally regarded as an ultra-long-range, large-cabin trijet with a strong reputation for operational flexibility, including good performance into shorter or more challenging runways. Its range is typically cited at about 6,450 nautical miles, which can favor very long nonstop city pairs. Passenger capacity depends on configuration, but it commonly carries around 12 to 16 passengers, with a maximum layout often quoted near 19. The Gulfstream G600 is a large-cabin, long-range twinjet positioned just below the G650 family, combining high cruise speeds with a spacious, modern Gulfstream cabin. Its range is typically listed around 6,600 nautical miles, putting it in the same intercontinental class as the 8X, often with a slight edge on paper. In typical service it’s configured for about 13 to 17 passengers, with maximum seating commonly cited around 19.
