Large Cabin Private Jets (Heavy Jets) Compared

COMPARE

Every large-cabin jet side by side.

Published figures for each type (the best-documented variant where a page covers several). Value is Radar's value model by build year, the middle listing-based estimate, or a rough range for the type. Aircraft: US registrations where Radar matches the type to the FAA register, otherwise the aircraft on Radar.

QUESTIONS

Large-cabin jets: questions, answered from the data

What is a large-cabin jet?

Large-cabin jets, often called heavy jets, have cabins wide and long enough for separate seating areas, typically 12 to 16 seats, a full galley and often a bed, with about 4,000 to 6,000 nm of range: transatlantic nonstop, and Europe to the Gulf. The 14 on Radar are published at 3,000 to 5,300 nm of range, with 12 to 19 seats at most.

How much does a large-cabin jet cost?

From about $1M for an older Challenger 601-3A to $49M for a recent Global 5000, by Radar's value model, listing-based and rough estimates. Within one model, build year, hours, engine programs and the logbooks move the price.

What is the longest-range large-cabin jet?

The Gulfstream G500, published at 5,300 nm. Next: the Global 5000 (5,200 nm) and the G450 (4,350 nm).

What is the fastest large-cabin jet?

The Bombardier Global 5000, with a published high-speed cruise of 510 knots true airspeed (maximum operating Mach 0.85).

How many passengers does a large-cabin jet seat?

Between 12 and 19 at most, by model; the median is 19. Many aircraft are completed with fewer, larger seats.

Which large-cabin jet has the biggest cabin?

By published cabin height, the Dassault Falcon 2000: 6 ft 2 in high, 7 ft 8 in wide, 26.2 ft long.

Which large-cabin jets can fly Los Angeles to Tokyo nonstop?

Los Angeles to Tokyo is about 4,746 nm. The Gulfstream G500 (5,300 nm) and the Bombardier Global 5000 (5,200 nm) are published for it, on paper. Winds, payload and reserves decide any one flight.

What is the most common large-cabin jet in the US?

Of the models Radar matches to the FAA register, the Dassault Falcon 2000, with 253 US registrations (FAA file of October 2026).
