Dassault Falcon 900lx vs Embraer Phenom 100ev

The Dassault Falcon 900LX and the Embraer Phenom 100EV sit in very different business-jet categories. The Falcon 900LX is a large-cabin, long-range trijet designed for intercontinental missions, higher cruise comfort, and greater baggage and cabin volume. The Phenom 100EV is a very light jet intended for short to medium regional trips, typically owner-flown or operated with a smaller crew, emphasizing efficiency and access to smaller airports. In range, the Falcon 900LX is built for long-haul flying at roughly 4,700–4,800 nautical miles, enabling nonstop city pairs that are out of reach for most light jets. The Phenom 100EV’s range is typically around 1,100–1,200 nautical miles, aligning with shorter point-to-point business hops rather than transoceanic travel. Passenger capacity also differs substantially. A Falcon 900LX commonly seats about 12–14 passengers in a typical executive configuration (with maximum layouts higher depending on certification and interior). The Phenom 100EV usually carries 4–6 passengers in standard layouts, with a practical focus on small groups.
