    As of Q3 2026, asking prices run $32M–$52M; budget roughly $4,550 per flight hour of variable cost.

    Selling Your Dassault Falcon 8X

    8X buyers are technically literate and compare fuel burn and airport access directly against the G600 and Global 6500. We price against genuine comparable trades, present the maintenance and programme package properly, and market to the European and Middle East buyer base where the type is strongest.

    As of Q3 2026, the model trades between $32M–$52M with average days-on-market around 150.

    Charter a Dassault Falcon 8X

    Falcon 8X charter is route- and date-dependent. Expect roughly $12,500–$17,000 per flight hour before positioning, landing fees, crew expenses and catering. We source the aircraft and confirm the operator's credentials on every trip.
