Falcon 2000

Production of the original Falcon 2000 ran from 1995 to 2006, when Dassault introduced the re-engined Falcon 2000EX. The 2000 established the foundation for a family that now includes the 2000EX, 2000LX, 2000S, and 2000LXS, with more than 675 aircraft across the whole line delivered since 1995.

The Dassault Falcon 2000 is a super midsize twin-engine jet built by Dassault Aviation. Produced from 1995 to 2006, it carries up to 12 passengers across a 3,130-nautical-mile range at 459 knots. Two CFE738-1-1B engines produce 5,918 lbf each, confirmed independently across multiple published sources. Cabin length is 26.3 feet, carried over from the Falcon 900's wide-body fuselage.

Dassault wanted a smaller, twin-engine alternative to the tri-jet Falcon 900 for the growing US coast-to-coast market, without losing the 900's wide cabin.

First, engineers shortened the Falcon 900 fuselage by roughly 7 feet, keeping its wide diameter and much of its wing design, landing gear, and systems architecture.

Second, Dassault dropped the third engine, fitting two CFE738-1-1B turbofans in its place. The change simplified maintenance and lowered operating cost at the expense of some range and engine-out redundancy.

Third, the aircraft became Dassault's first ever designed entirely without a physical model, using CATIA computer-aided design software to refine aerodynamics and simplify onboard systems, shortening development time.

Per Dassault's own published data, the Falcon 2000 can carry 8 passengers over roughly 3,000 nautical miles at Mach 0.8, giving it real coast-to-coast capability at a lower operating cost than the trijet Falcon 900.

The original Falcon 2000 proved successful enough that Dassault built an entire aircraft family around its wide-body design, a lineage that remains in active production today.

Dassault delivered the original Falcon 2000 through 2006, when the re-engined Falcon 2000EX took over with Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308C engines and significantly more range. New original Falcon 2000s carried a list price of approximately $17.85 million.

Today, pre-owned original Falcon 2000s typically trade between roughly $5 million and $8.5 million depending on year and condition. Since 1995, Dassault has built more than 675 Falcon 2000s across all variants, with close to 700 aircraft in service worldwide.

The Falcon 2000 family has continued to expand well beyond the original model, adding the 2000EX, 2000EX EASy, 2000DX, 2000LX, 2000S, and current-production 2000LXS, each extending range, improving runway performance, or modernizing avionics.

A super midsize jet trades a higher hourly rate for meaningfully more range, cabin room, and baggage capacity.

• More range: 3,130 nautical miles versus roughly 2,000 to 2,700 nm for most midsize jets.
• More cabin: 26.3 feet long and 7.6 feet wide versus roughly 17 to 21 feet long and 5.5 to 6.5 feet wide for most midsize jets.
• More baggage: 134 cubic feet, in-flight accessible, versus 40 to 65 cubic feet for most midsize jets.
• Quieter cabin: an in-cruise cabin noise level Dassault compares to a quiet home conversation, notably lower than most jets in this class.
• Best mission: coast-to-coast US trips and regional intercontinental routes with 8 to 12 passengers.

The Falcon 2000 seats up to 12 passengers. Standard configurations typically seat 8 across two distinct cabin zones.

• A forward zone with four large seats separated by a fold-away table and the center aisle.
• An aft zone with a three-seat divan and a four-seat dining area that converts into a double bed for night flights.
• Cabin height is 6.2 feet; the wide cross-section allows three-abreast seating with a full center aisle.
• A spacious enclosed lavatory and a full-service galley sit at the rear of the cabin.
• Nine large circular windows per side keep the cabin bright and give it a distinctly open feel for a jet in this class.
• 134 cubic feet of in-flight accessible baggage space, enough for roughly 12 suitcases.

The Dassault Falcon 2000 cabin is 26.3 feet long, 7.6 feet wide, and 6.2 feet tall. Cabin pressurization holds a 4,500-foot equivalent altitude at cruise, among the lowest cabin altitudes in its class. The wide cross-section supports three-abreast seating and a full center aisle. The aircraft seats up to 12 passengers with 134 cubic feet of baggage capacity.

Within the Falcon family, the 2000 is the original, most affordable entry into the wide-body twin-engine Falcon lineup. The Falcon 2000EX and later variants extend range considerably on the same cabin. The original 2000 remains a strong value pick for buyers prioritizing cabin space and quiet over the newest engines and avionics.

The 3,130-nautical-mile range covers coast-to-coast US routes with reserves to spare. New York to Los Angeles (2,451 nm) is comfortably within nonstop range.

The cost to charter a Dassault Falcon 2000 is typically $4,500 to $6,500 per flight hour. New York to Los Angeles one-way rental runs approximately $37,900 to $47,000. New York to Miami one-way charter price is approximately $19,100 to $26,600. 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.

The most natural comparisons are against contemporary super midsize competitors and a longer-range step-up within Hogani Jets' aircraft portfolio. The Gulfstream G200 offers a faster cruise in a smaller cabin. The Challenger 605 offers more range and cabin space at a similar rate.

Every Dassault Falcon 2000 charter coordinated by Hogani Jets is operated by an FAA Part 135 certificated direct air carrier holding full operational control of the flight. Each operator's certificate, insurance coverage, and safety record is independently reviewed before Hogani Jets coordinates a booking. ARGUS, Wyvern, or IS-BAO ratings are considered where they exist as one input to that review. Hogani Jets is an air charter broker and does not own or operate aircraft.

The Falcon 2000 carries Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4 avionics as standard, including fault-monitoring and digital diagnostic systems designed to simplify maintenance troubleshooting. Twin CFE738-1-1B engines power the type. Honeywell and Dassault Aviation continue to provide parts and engineering support for the existing fleet.
