Charter a Dassault Falcon 2000EX

The Dassault Falcon 2000EX entered service in 2003 as the extended-range upgrade of the Falcon 2000 series, delivering a 25% increase in range over the original Falcon 2000 - from approximately 5,556 km to 7,034 km. The fuel reserve is increased by 31% through the PW308C engines with FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control), enabling long-range missions without refuelling that the earlier Falcon 2000 variants could not complete. At 14,330 m maximum altitude the Falcon 2000EX cruises above all commercial airline traffic, flying the most direct routing available and reducing exposure to weather on intercontinental sectors.

The Falcon 2000EX cabin accommodates up to 10 passengers in optimal configuration with a more comfortable and modern interior than the original Falcon 2000. Stylish furniture, compactly integrated equipment and French manufacturing quality create the cabin atmosphere that Dassault describes as the high-style standard of the Falcon series. The 7.98 m cabin is 2.34 m wide and 1.88 m high - the same dimensions as the Falcon 900 in a twin-engine aircraft. At 850 km/h cruise the Falcon 2000EX covers the full Gulf and Near East from UK airports non-stop and extends to transatlantic range. Charter prices start from approximately £4,600 per flight hour.

Why charter the Falcon 2000EX?

• 25% range increase over the original Falcon 2000 - 7,034 km. Its 7,034 km range represents a 25% improvement over the original Falcon 2000's approximately 5,556 km. The 31% increase in fuel reserve achieved through the PW308C FADEC engines is the mechanism behind this range extension. At 7,034 km the Falcon 2000EX covers London to New York non-stop, London to Dubai with a comfortable margin and London to Mumbai with one short fuel stop;
• PW308C engines with FADEC and 31% greater fuel reserve. The Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308C engines with FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) provide the combination of power and economy that extends fuel reserve by 31%. FADEC automatically optimises engine performance throughout the flight envelope, eliminating manual adjustments and ensuring peak fuel efficiency on every phase from takeoff through long-range cruise to approach. The result is a 7,034 km range at a competitive fuel cost per nautical mile;
• 14,330 m maximum altitude - above all commercial airline traffic. At 14,330 m (47,000 ft) the Falcon 2000EX cruises above all commercial airline traffic. This altitude allows the aircraft to fly the most direct routing available - as straight as possible without commercial traffic conflicts - and to avoid adverse weather systems below the flight level. On intercontinental sectors the combination of direct routing and weather avoidance meaningfully reduces total flight time;
• More comfortable and modern interior than the original Falcon 2000. Entering service in 2003, the Falcon 2000EX features an updated cabin interior reflecting Dassault's French design standards: stylish furniture, compactly integrated equipment and a quality of material finish that represents the high-style specification the Falcon family is known for. For corporate and leisure passengers on 6 to 9-hour Gulf and transatlantic sectors, the cabin quality is a primary selection criterion;
• 2.34 m cabin width - Falcon 900 standard in a twin-engine aircraft. The Falcon 2000EX maintains the 2.34 m cabin width shared across the Falcon 2000 and Falcon 900 series. This width - wider than the Gulfstream G450 (2.24 m) - allows face-to-face meeting configurations and provides a level of cabin spaciousness more typically associated with larger trijets. At large-cabin twin rates the 2.34 m width represents significant value;
• 10 passengers optimal - above standard large-cabin twin capacity. The Falcon 2000EX seats 10 passengers in optimal configuration - above the 8-passenger standard of the Falcon 2000DX and the Citation Sovereign. For groups of 9 to 10 on Gulf and transatlantic missions, the Falcon 2000EX provides more capacity than most large-cabin twins at comparable rates, reducing the need to consider aircraft in higher rate categories.

Charter cost - Falcon 2000EX prices from UK airports

Hourly rates run from approximately £4,600 to £5,600 - in the large-cabin twin category, above the Falcon 2000DX and comparable to the Challenger 605. For 8 to 10 passengers on Gulf and transatlantic missions, the Falcon 2000EX's 7,034 km range and 14,330 m ceiling at these rates provide strong value over shorter-range competing large-cabin jets.

Ideal routes for the Falcon 2000EX

Best matched to to transatlantic and intercontinental missions where the 7,034 km range extension, 14,330 m ceiling and 10-passenger capacity are all operationally relevant:

• Transatlantic non-stop (7 to 8 hours). London to New York non-stop is within range - a sector that requires the full 7,034 km capability of the Falcon 2000EX and is beyond the Falcon 2000DX (6,020 km) without a fuel stop. The 14,330 m ceiling keeps the aircraft above North Atlantic weather and commercial traffic on this routing;
• UK to Gulf non-stop (5.5 to 7 hours). Dubai, Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Doha and Kuwait City are all within non-stop range. The Falcon 2000EX covers the full Gulf from UK airports with comfortable margin. For 8 to 10 passengers on Gulf corporate missions at large-cabin twin rates, the combination of range and capacity is well-matched;
• UK to Africa non-stop (6 to 8 hours). Lagos, Nairobi and Accra are within non-stop range. The 7,034 km capability covers most of Sub-Saharan Africa from UK airports non-stop - a range that most large-cabin twins cannot achieve. The 14,330 m ceiling is relevant on West Africa and East Africa routing where weather avoidance at lower altitudes is a consideration;
• Groups of 9 to 10 at large-cabin twin rates. The optimal 10-passenger configuration makes the Falcon 2000EX the right choice when groups exceed the standard 8-seat specification of other large-cabin twins at comparable rates. For a full group of 10 on a 7-hour Gulf sector, the Falcon 2000EX handles the complement without requiring a step up to the Falcon 900 or Falcon 7X at significantly higher rates;
• Missions where flying above commercial traffic matters. At 14,330 m the Falcon 2000EX is above all commercial airline traffic on intercontinental sectors. For time-sensitive corporate missions where the most direct routing and weather avoidance are operational priorities, the higher ceiling reduces total flight time versus aircraft that cruise at commercial altitudes.

Technical specifications

Falcon 2000EX vs similar aircraft

• Falcon 2000EX vs Falcon 2000DX. The DX has less range (6,020 km vs 7,034 km) and 8 passengers optimal versus 10 for the Falcon 2000EX. Charter rates for the Falcon 2000EX run approximately 5 to 10% higher. It adds 1,014 km of additional range, the 14,330 m ceiling versus the DX's altitude specification and the 2003 updated interior. For missions requiring transatlantic non-stop range or 9 to 10 passengers, the Falcon 2000EX is the appropriate choice;
• Falcon 2000EX vs Challenger 605. The Challenger 605 has greater range (6,852 km vs 7,034 km - comparable; EX has slightly more), a wider cabin (2.49 m vs 2.34 m) and broadly comparable charter rates. The Falcon 2000EX counters with 7,034 km vs 6,852 km (slight advantage), the French design interior and the Dassault engineering standard. For clients who prioritise Dassault cabin quality and marginally greater range, the Falcon 2000EX is competitive with the Challenger 605;
• Falcon 2000EX vs Falcon 2000 LX. The LX is the later, further-improved variant in the series with additional range and winglet upgrade. Charter rates for the Falcon 2000LX run approximately 5 to 15% higher. The Falcon 2000EX provides the core extended-range Falcon 2000 specification at lower rates. For missions within this range where the LX's additional improvements are not required, it is the appropriate choice.
