The ultra-long-range Falcon 10X aircraft from Dassault will compete with several other jet models.
The French company Dassault unveiled its new private jet, the Falcon 10X, at the Paris Air Show, which took place from June 19 to 26. The aircraft is expected to be in service by 2025. As an ultra-long-range jet, it can travel up to 12,000 kilometers, with a maximum near-supersonic speed of 1,142 km/h, competing with rivals such as the Bombardier Global 7500 and Gulfstream G700.
However, beyond flight speed, a significant focus is also placed on the interior of the aircraft. A quick tour of the cabins reveals the luxury level of this vehicle.
With a shower-equipped bathroom and a cabin height exceeding 2 meters, the Falcon 10X is also dubbed the “penthouse of the sky.”

Bathroom
The cabin height is 203 cm, which is 12.7 cm taller than the G700. Even while in the air, the aircraft’s bathroom is larger than many ground-level apartments. Notably, the bathroom is equipped with a shower—something typically found only in the most luxurious private jets. The spacious bathroom includes seating for enjoying the view, luxurious marble flooring, and a toilet that makes many feel like they are in a real hotel.

The cabin width measures 276 cm, providing a spacious and comfortable environment. The plush, cozy bed ensures a comfortable resting place for ultra-wealthy passengers on long flights.
Dassault also equipped the room with a large screen TV. Additionally, there is a small sofa for watching TV.

Main Seating Area
Next is the seating area, which includes 8 seats. These seats are very comfortable with a modern, sleek design that hugs the body, looking quite unique compared to regular airplane seats. Opposite the seats is a folding table that can be extended for dining or working. The table is also longer than typical folding tables found in aircraft. Additionally, next to each seat are several buttons, including two light switches and a call button for flight attendants. Under the windows, there are storage compartments.

The final area, located in front of the cockpit, is the kitchen, where food and drinks are prepared. It is equipped with a small sink and several counters displaying some expensive chocolates. Notably, there are multiple cupboards for dishes, a coffee machine, and two convection ovens.
Finally, the cockpit. Dassault stated that the control system uses military-grade flight control technology. With the integrated FalconEye observation system, the Falcon 10X will have incredible visibility and operate effectively even in less-than-favorable weather conditions.
