-- ABOUT THE AIRCRAFT | DASSAULT FALCON 8X --
Whether you’re flying for business or for pleasure, the Dassault Falcon 8x ultra long range business jet offers an incredibly comfortable ride, with high air quality and low noise and cabin altitude.

The Falcon 8X has two bathrooms, a galley area, and a spacious mid-cabin storage area offer passengers an extremely comfortable flight. Seating can also be converted into 5 flatbeds for long-distance flights, and passengers can bring plenty on board with a 1,695 cubic foot baggage capacity.

Many Falcon 8x planes are equipped with the FalconCabin HD+, a cabin management system that allows passengers to control their entertainment and productivity from anywhere in the cabin using their own devices.

Improvements to wing design and upgraded Pratt & Whitney Canada PW300 engines result in performance with up to 35% more fuel efficiency than competing jets, and, with its optimized airliner-type MSG-3 maintenance program, inspections are due at 800 hours or 12 months, helping to maximize the operations of your private business aircraft. The Falcon 8X also boasts a 6,450 mile range, making it one of the top 10 long range private jets.

The cost of ownership for the Falcon 8x over the course of 200 flight hours per year carries an annual budget of around $1.4 million, including fixed costs of around $660k-$750k, and operating/variable costs of around $750k-$800k. The operating cost for the Falcon 8x comes out to around $3,750-$3,800 an hour.

The 8x’s cost per hour is substantially lower than Gulfstream and Global Express long range jets, with costs similar to Dassault Falcon 7x and the Embraer Legacy 600/650 midsize jet. A new Dassault Falcon 8x is available with a price tag starting at $58 million USD, with limited availability in the pre-owned market starting at around $39 million.
