Specifications
Manufacturer-published figures for a typical configuration. Individual aircraft vary with model year, interior fit and optional equipment, and runway requirements move considerably with altitude, temperature and weight — the operator's own performance data governs every trip.
Our read
Commands a premium over conventional heavy jets.
We publish the downside because you would find it anyway, and because we do not own this aircraft — there is no reason for us to oversell it.
Range in practice
Great-circle distances with block times computed from this aircraft's 488 kt cruise plus a taxi allowance.
Runway
The Dassault Falcon 7X needs about 5,710 ft at sea level, which clears 902 of the 2,746 US fields we publish. Thin air needs more of it — roughly 3% per 1,000 ft of elevation — so the demanding fields below are worked out at their own altitude, not at sea level.

Indicative, and not a performance calculation. Real balanced field length depends on temperature, weight, runway slope and the day — and it is the operator who signs for it. Treat this as the question to ask, not the answer.
Questions
Typically 12–14 in a charter configuration. Exact seating varies by operator, since interiors differ between individual aircraft — we confirm the layout of the specific tail before you accept a quote.
Published range is about 5,950 nautical miles at 488 knots. Real-world range is lower with a full cabin, strong headwinds or hot-and-high departures, which is exactly the kind of thing we check before proposing it for your trip.
Around 5,710 ft at sea level on a standard day near maximum weight. Altitude, temperature and weight change this significantly — the operator's performance data is what governs whether it can use your airport.
We publish an indicative market range for this cabin class ($7,000–$13,000 per hour) so you can size the trip, not a firm rate for this aircraft — the real number depends on where the aircraft is positioned, the season and the airports, which is why we source your specific trip. Altessair adds a disclosed brokerage fee to the operator's price, shown as a separate line on every quote.
