Charter of a Dassault Falcon 8X starts at $9,000 to $13,000 per flight hour. The Falcon 8X was announced in December 2014 and received its first delivery in October 2016. It carries up to 16 passengers across a 6,450-nautical-mile range at Mach 0.80. Three Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307D engines produce 6,722 lbf each. This is 5 percent more thrust than the Falcon 7X's PW307A engines. Hogani Jets coordinates each Falcon 8X charter through licensed Part 135 operators.

The Falcon 8X is the longest-range Falcon trijet Dassault has produced. It connects Beijing to New York, Hong Kong to London, London to São Paulo, and Paris to Singapore, all nonstop. The aircraft can fly for up to 14 hours continuously.

The Falcon 8X was designed to extend the Falcon 7X's range. Engineers stretched the 7X fuselage to accommodate more fuel, while wing optimization kept empty weight nearly identical to the 7X.

Dassault delivered the first Falcon 8X in October 2016. The aircraft has been in continuous production since.

The Dassault Falcon 8X is an ultra long range trijet produced since 2016. It carries up to 16 passengers across a 6,450-nautical-mile range at Mach 0.80. Three Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307D engines produce 6,722 lbf each. Maximum takeoff weight is 73,000 lbs and service ceiling is 51,000 feet.

The Falcon 8X's 500-nautical-mile range increase over the 7X reflects its increased fuel capacity and aerodynamic improvements. The Falcon 8X has a published range of 6,450 nautical miles, compared with 5,950 nautical miles for the Falcon 7X.

The Falcon 8X features a longer fuselage than the Falcon 7X, providing additional cabin space and fuel capacity. Its redesigned wing and aerodynamic improvements support the aircraft's increased range and efficiency.

The PW307D engines produce 6,722 lbf of thrust each, compared with 6,402 lbf for the Falcon 7X's PW307A engines.

The Falcon 8X also features FalconEye Combined Vision System and enhanced avionics designed to support operations in demanding visibility conditions.

The aircraft can perform steep approaches and is designed to operate from airports with challenging runway requirements.

The Falcon 8X and 7X share the same fuselage cross-section and cabin width. The longer fuselage, more powerful engines, and updated avionics are the meaningful differences.

At the same rate tier, the 8X is the preferred choice when the route exceeds the 7X's 5,950 nm range or when the longer cabin and FalconEye standard fit are operationally important. The 7X remains the right choice when 5,950 nm covers the mission.

The Falcon 8X seats up to 16 passengers across three zones. Standard configurations run 12 to 14.

  • Three zones with the largest selection of cabin configurations in business aviation.
  • 32 large windows (standard) fill the cabin with natural light across the 43.5-foot interior.
  • Galley options include a crew berth configuration enabling 14-hour operations with two-pilot relief.
  • Up to six passengers can have sleeping berths on overnight sectors.
  • FalconConnect provides Ka-, Ku-, and L-band satellite plus 3G/4G connectivity via a single provider.
  • FalconCabin HD+ distributes high-definition audio and video throughout the cabin via fiber optics.

The Falcon 8X cabin is 43.5 feet long, 7.7 feet wide, and 6.2 feet tall. Cabin pressurization holds a 5,970-foot equivalent altitude at cruise. The aircraft seats up to 16 passengers with 140 cubic feet of pressurized baggage capacity. 

The Falcon 8X's 6,450-nautical-mile range enables nonstop operations on major intercontinental business corridors. Beijing to New York and Hong Kong to London are within the aircraft's published range. London to São Paulo is also within the published range, while Paris to Singapore should not be described as within range because the route distance exceeds the 6,450-nautical-mile published range.

The cost to charter a Falcon 8X is typically $9,000 to $13,000 per flight hour. New York to London one-way rental runs approximately $95,500 to $135,500. Hong Kong to London one-way charter price runs approximately $220,000 to $270,000. Final all-in cost depends on operator, routing, positioning, and season. Fuel, crew, and maintenance are included in the hourly rate; landing fees, taxes, and repositioning are billed separately.
