Following Gulfstream's recent success with the G700, the largest and farthest range jet yet in its class, the aviation company finally releases its business jet counterpart, the Gulfstream G400. It stands out in its class, combining luxury, performance and advanced technology to meet the demands of today’s corporate travelers.

Dassault Aviation's Falcon 10X is finally heading into service next year. With it comes the brand's most ambitious business jet yet. Previously known for years for its light-weight, high-performance Falcons, Dassault, back in 2021, shifted its focus to building 'the largest and most capable purpose-built business jet' ever.

It's rather difficult to argue against Dassault Aviation's Falcon 6X being the very best in its class. Bigger isn't always better but in this case, it's true. It is, after all, the aerospace company's largest and most robust business jet in the brand's 60-year history, a real successor to Dassault's fabled aircraft heritage.

For all the cachet and romance of private aviation, it’s typically the sheer utility that wins over buyers in the end: the flexibility of flight times, the ease of dedicated airports, the direct flight to a factory, regional office or secluded executive offsite. But yes, there’s also trading Maafaru for Male International, and the next-level comforts of a cabin to call one’s own.

When Bombardier first introduced the Global 8000, it showed the possibilities yet unchartered for a private jet in its class. The jet manufacturer took the best qualities of the Global 8000's predecessor, the Global 7500, and transformed them into a flagship of unparalleled long-haul excellence. Soon, it will be the fastest and longest-range purpose-built business jet in the world, bolstering the brand's impeccable portfolio.

“We’ve seen a tremendous change in business aviation usage,” says Jean-Christophe Gallagher, “pre- and post-pandemic.” Bombardier’s executive vice president of aircraft sales & defense appears to be invulnerable to jet lag, having touched down at 7 am that September morning after travelling halfway across the world from the United States – and looking none the worse for wear.
