Falcon 8X – the ultra-long-range business jet
A business jet perfectly balanced to create a flying experience that exceeds all your expectations. The Falcon 8X offers a unique combination of efficiency, flexibility, long range and comfort. Let yourself be carried away by a top-of-the-range business jet equipped with noise-reduction technology.
The Falcon 8X has been in service since 2016. This tri-jet is very similar to the Falcon 7X, with modernized equipment, extended range and a longer cabin.
The Falcon 8X is true to Dassault Aviation’s Falcon range in terms of performance, flexibility and comfort.
The 8X features the longest cabin in the Falcon family (13 m), for an even more comfortable experience, with a choice of optimization and some thirty possible cabin layouts. The Falcon 8X features 16 windows for natural light in the cabin.
The 8X cabin is equipped with the best soundproofing on the market, making it the quietest cabin on the market. The cabin features a galley, one or two bathrooms with toilets, and two or three separate living areas, depending on the layout. It is also equipped with 6 beds, including a double bed that can be converted for night flights, and the cabin can be configured to provide the crew with a rest area near the cockpit.
You control all cabin functions such as lighting, temperature and lampshades via side-mounted controls or a mobile app.
The business jet made its maiden flight on February 6, 2015 and has been in service since October 5, 2016.
