GULFSTREAM

Gulfstream G350

The Gulfstream G350 is a short-range derivative of the G450 — the same fuselage, cabin and PlaneView flight deck with reduced fuel capacity and 3,800 nm of range at a materially lower hourly cost. The Gulfstream heavy cabin on transcontinental missions rather than transatlantic.

EXPERT VERDICT

The Falcon 900EX is the stronger all-rounder, but the G350 still wins where it counts for the right mission.

The G350 pulls ahead on airport access; the Falcon 900EX answers with range / non-stop reach, cabin comfort and speed & block time. Both sit in the heavy jet class, so charter pricing is broadly aligned — let the use case (range, group size, airport pair) drive the final call.

Range / non-stop reach

Falcon 900EX

4,500 nm of range — the better choice for transcontinental and intercontinental missions.

Cabin comfort

Falcon 900EX

Taller and/or wider cabin (6'2" × 7'8") — better for long flights and stand-up movement.

Group capacity

Even

Matched specifications.

Airport access

G350

Shorter 5,050 ft balanced-field requirement — opens up restricted alpine, island and city-adjacent airfields.

Speed & block time

Falcon 900EX

Cruise of Mach 0.84 — shaves meaningful minutes off every long leg.

CHOOSE WITH CONFIDENCE

Top reasons to choose — and who each aircraft is best for

A tailored summary for the G350 and Falcon 900EX: the deciding reasons in this matchup, plus the buyer archetypes each aircraft serves best.

GULFSTREAM

Top reasons to choose the G350

  • Lands in 5,050 ft balanced field — accesses short, restricted and city-adjacent airports the Falcon 900EX cannot.
  • 169 cu ft of baggage volume — fits ski, golf and extended-stay luggage that crowds the Falcon 900EX.
  • Full G450 cabin with 3,800 nm range
  • Lower hourly cost than G450
  • PlaneView flight deck

BEST FOR

  • Short-field departures

    5,050 ft balanced field unlocks airports the Falcon 900EX cannot use, putting passengers closer to the door.

  • Intercontinental sleep flights

    Lie-flat berths for overnight Europe–US, Europe–Gulf and Asia legs.

  • 10–14 passenger groups

    Real space for a full delegation plus support staff.

  • Two-zone living

    Separate work, dine and rest areas on flights over six hours.

DASSAULT

Top reasons to choose the Falcon 900EX

  • Reaches 4,500 nm non-stop — 18% more range than the G350, opening city pairs that would otherwise need a tech stop.
  • Cruises at Mach 0.84, trimming block time on every leg vs the G350 (Mach 0.80).
  • Bigger cabin envelope (6'2" tall × 7'8" wide) than the G350 — meaningful difference on flights over three hours.
  • Three-engine ETOPS-style intercontinental capability
  • Steep-approach certified (London City compatible)

BEST FOR

  • Longer non-stop reach

    When the mission is on the edge of the G350's envelope, the 4,500 nm legs of the Falcon 900EX keep reserves intact.

  • Intercontinental sleep flights

    Lie-flat berths for overnight Europe–US, Europe–Gulf and Asia legs.

  • 10–14 passenger groups

    Real space for a full delegation plus support staff.
