Book a flight in Falcon 8X
The Dassault Falcon 8X is the largest and longest of the Falcon trijets. It can connect Paris to Los Angeles or Dubai to New York non-stop. Its FalconEye 3 system fusing infrared vision ensures maximum safety.
The Dassault Falcon 8X is the flagship ultra-long-range aircraft of Dassault Aviation, capable of connecting Paris to Singapore or New York to Tokyo in a single flight. Certified in 2016, this trijet powered by three Pratt & Whitney PW307D engines delivers a record range of 11,945 km at Mach 0.80, combined with exceptional agility on short runways. It represents the pinnacle of Dassault’s expertise begun with the Falcon 7X, with a cabin extended by 0.91 m and fuel consumption reduced by 15%.
The Falcon 8X cabin extends over 14.45 m in length by 2.34 m wide and 1.88 m tall. It can be configured into 2 to 3 distinct zones accommodating 14 to 19 passengers, with seats converting to 2.03 m flat beds. Cabin pressure maintained at 6,000 feet even at FL490 reduces passenger fatigue on long flights. Amenities include Ku-band satellite Wi-Fi, a large-format galley and a lavatory with shower. The cabin noise level of 53 dB is among the lowest in the industry.
With 11,945 km of range, the Falcon 8X is one of the world’s most enduring private jets. It connects Paris to Singapore (10,700 km), New York to Dubai (11,000 km) or London to Hong Kong (9,620 km) non-stop. Its minimum runway of 1,800 m allows it to use airfields such as Samedan (1,800 m at 1,739 m altitude) in Switzerland or Aspen (2,316 m) in the United States, inaccessible to conventional heavy jets. The order book remains strong, with approximately 50 units operational in Europe.

Frequently asked questions about the Falcon 8X
Chartering a Falcon 8X starts at around €20,000 for a European flight and reaches €45,000 to €70,000 for an intercontinental route such as Paris–Singapore or New York–Dubai. The hourly cost is between €9,000 and €13,000. Regular empty leg flights on Europe–Middle East routes offer savings of 25 to 45%, with prices from €12,000 on certain segments.
The Falcon 8X accommodates 14 to 19 passengers depending on the chosen configuration. The standard configuration seats 14 in flat-bed chairs across two or three zones. A high-density configuration can reach 19 seats for group travel, with dedicated cabin crew. The 22.3 m³ baggage hold makes it easy to carry equipment for extended trips.
The Falcon 8X has an exceptional range of 11,945 km, enabling it to connect Paris to Singapore (10,700 km), New York to Dubai (11,000 km) or London to Hong Kong (9,620 km) non-stop. It is one of the three most enduring private jets in the world, alongside the Gulfstream G700 and the Global 7500. At Mach 0.80, it covers these routes in 12 to 14 hours.
The Falcon 8X's trijet configuration offers two major advantages: enhanced safety with an additional redundancy engine, and exceptional performance on short or high-altitude runways. Its third Pratt & Whitney PW307D engine allows it to use Samedan (1,800 m at 1,739 m altitude) in Switzerland or high-altitude mountain airports inaccessible to heavy twin-engine jets. Fuel consumption is offset by the efficiency of the next-generation engines.
The Falcon 8X cabin measures 14.45 m by 2.34 m wide, with pressure maintained at the equivalent of 6,000 feet altitude, significantly reducing fatigue on flights of 12+ hours. Seats convert to 2.03 m flat beds, the large-format galley enables gourmet dining, and a private shower is available on board. The cabin noise level of 53 dB is among the lowest on the market.
The Gulfstream G700 offers a wider cabin (2.49 m vs 2.34 m) and a slightly greater range (13,890 km vs 11,945 km), but the Falcon 8X stands out through its trijet configuration, which gives it an advantage on short runways and at altitude. The G700 is more recent (2022) and integrates more advanced entertainment technologies, while the Falcon 8X benefits from the legendary Dassault agility on challenging airfields.
