What is the Dassault Falcon 900 / 900EX / 900LX?
The Dassault Falcon 900 is a three-engine large-cabin business jet. It first flew in 1984 and was built in versions from the original 900 to the 900LX, and the 500th aircraft was built in 2012. A 900LX seats 12 to 14 in three lounges and flies about 4,750 nm non-stop. Dassault has not formally ended it, but brokers expect the last new 900LX deliveries in 2026.
4,750 nm of range on the 900LX with 8 passengers, about 250 nm more than the 900EX.
Three Honeywell TFE731-60 engines of 5,000 lb thrust each, with blended winglets on the 900LX.
Cabin 33 ft 2 in (10.11 m) long, 7 ft 8 in (2.34 m) wide and 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m) tall, with 24 windows.
The 900EX EASy, 900DX and 900LX are approved for steep approaches of up to 6 degrees, into airports such as London City and Lugano.
8 fly with 3 operators holding a German air operator certificate, based in Hamburg, Stuttgart and Waldshut-Tiengen. Altivo Jets books them through these licensed operators.

Fuel burn and CO2
The Falcon 900 burns about 304 US gallons (921 kg) of jet fuel an hour, which puts out about 2.9 tonnes of CO2. Sustainable aviation fuel, where the departure airport has it, cuts the lifecycle figure.
| Flight | Fuel | CO2 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 flight hour | 920 kg | 2.9 tonnes |
| 3 flight hours | 2,760 kg | 8.7 tonnes |
| 8 flight hours | 7,360 kg | 23.3 tonnes |
Average block figures; real burn depends on weight, altitude and winds. Fuel at 0.8 kg per litre.

How much does a Falcon 900 cost?
A new Falcon 900 listed at about $44 million in 2025. Owning one also means paying to fly and maintain it, which is why most people who fly a few times a year charter instead.
Buy new

Falcon 900 charter cost per hour in Germany (2026)

Heavy jets, per flight hour
What moves the price
- Positioning: one-way trips usually pay for the empty flight home.
- Crew overnights and waiting days on multi-day trips.
- Airport and handling fees, plus aviation tax and any VAT.
- Empty legs can cut the price sharply when one matches your dates.
Charter or own?
Owning a Falcon 900 costs about €2.16 million a year before it flies (crew, hangar, insurance), plus about €5,100 for every flight hour. At the hours most owners fly, chartering costs less per hour, and you pay nothing when you do not fly.
| You fly | Owning (per hour) | Charter in Germany (per hour) |
|---|---|---|
| 50 hours a year | €48,300 per hour | €10.6k to €16.5k per hour |
| 100 hours a year | €26,700 per hour | €10.6k to €16.5k per hour |

| 300 hours a year | €12,300 per hour | €10.6k to €16.5k per hour |
Guardian Jet Falcon 900LX operating cost estimate (October 2026): crew, hangar, insurance and other fixed costs a year, plus fuel at $7.54 a gallon (304 gallons an hour), maintenance and the engine programme per flight hour, for an aircraft flying 300 hours a year. Excludes buying the aircraft and depreciation. Converted at €0.8911 to the dollar (15 October 2026). Charter rates are before taxes, positioning and airport charges.

Where the Falcon 900 can land
A 4,750 nm jet that needs about 5,400 ft of runway at full weight, and less on shorter trips.
Runway needed
About 5,360 ft to take off at maximum weight at sea level and about 2,415 ft to land. Dassault says that fuelled for 3,000 nm a 900LX can use runways under 4,000 ft at sea level. Hot or high airports need more.
Steep approaches
The 900EX EASy, 900DX and 900LX are approved by EASA and the FAA for approaches of up to 6 degrees, which opens London City, Lugano and Sion. Older 900s and 900EXs without EASy are not covered by that approval.

Falcon 900EX
Approved by the FAA on 19 July 1996. TFE731-60 engines of 5,000 lb thrust and more fuel give about 4,500 nm of range.
Falcon 900EX EASy
The 900EX with Dassault's EASy flight deck, approved by the FAA on 14 November 2003.
Falcon 900DX
A shorter-range 900EX EASy, approved by the FAA on 3 November 2005. It carries less fuel: 18,836 lb usable against 20,825 lb for the 900EX.

Falcon 900 safety record
Events from official investigations and safety databases. We also check the record of the exact aircraft and operator before we book.
SX-ECH, Romania, 1999
A Falcon 900B on a Greek government flight to Bucharest went into violent pitch oscillations after the autopilot disengaged in descent with a pitch feel warning showing. Seven people died, among them Greece's deputy foreign minister. Romania's Civil Aviation Inspectorate investigated.
N823RC, San Diego, 2021
A Falcon 900EX EASy would not rotate on takeoff from Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport and ran off the runway. All six on board escaped without injury, but the aircraft was badly damaged. The NTSB found the captain held no valid pilot certificate.
