Range is the same on paper (7,500 nm), so pick on cabin (6'8" vs 6'5" cabin height), seats (16–19 vs 13–16), speed (Mach 0.925 vs Mach 0.925) and which aircraft is available near your departure airport.
Both belong to the Ultra Long Range category, but range, payload and runway performance differ. See the route-recommendations table on this page for our specific pick per corridor.
Cabin comfort is the everyday difference passengers feel most. Both the Dassault Falcon 10X and Gulfstream G650ER sit in the Ultra Long Range class, so cabin height, width and layout differ subtly — on flights over 3 hours those details matter more than raw range. Ask us for a side-by-side floorplan.

The hourly class rate is only one input. Total mission cost includes positioning legs, overnight fees, landing/handling, catering, de-icing and FET where applicable. Our confirmed quote itemises every line so there are no surprises.
