Dassault Falcon Jets: Charter and Ownership Guide
Dassault's differentiator is airport access. Falcon wings and, on the trijets, a third engine open runways and approaches that competing large jets cannot always use.
Dassault Falcon in the charter market
Origin: France — trijets and short-field-capable large-cabin twins.
If a trip involves London City, an Alpine field such as Sion or Samedan, or a constrained regional runway, a Falcon is frequently the aircraft that makes the schedule work. Steep-approach and short-field authorisations are granted to specific operators and crews, so we verify them per aircraft rather than assuming them from the type.
The current line is the 6X, 8X, 2000LXS and 900-family successors, with the 10X in development. The older 7X and 900LX remain very active on the charter market and are aircraft we list directly.
Cabin cross-sections across the family are generous, and the 6X currently offers the tallest cabin in the large-cabin class short of a VIP airliner.
Trijets
Three engines, long range and access to airports large twins often cannot take.
- Falcon 10X — In development — not in service: Announced 7,500 nm design range; not in service
- Falcon 8X — In production: 6,450 nm published; steep-approach capable
- Falcon 7X — Out of production — still flying: Predecessor to the 8X; large charter fleet
- Falcon 900LX — Out of production — still flying: Three-zone large cabin, short-field capable
Twins
Wide-cabin twins with unusually short landing distances for the class.
- Falcon 6X — In production: 5,500 nm published; tallest and widest current Falcon cabin
- Falcon 2000LXS — In production: 4,000 nm published; short-field large cabin
- Falcon 2000 / 2000EX — Out of production — still flying: Earlier 2000-series aircraft, common on charter
- Falcon 50EX — Out of production — still flying: Older trijet; ageing fleet, limited availability
How to read these figures
Published ranges and cabin dimensions are the manufacturer's maximum values and change with serial number, interior fit and operating conditions. Verify against https://www.dassaultfalcon.com/aircraft/ before relying on a figure for a specific mission.
MEGA arranges every flight through registered third-party operators. Aircraft, crew, permits, slots and handling are confirmed per trip and per date, so nothing on this page is an availability guarantee.
