Falcon 8X for Sale: Price, Specs and Buying Guide

Falcon 8X price in 2026

Current pre-owned listings price the Falcon 8X at roughly $39,900,000 to $42,700,000 as of 2025-26, with the average pre-owned figure cited around $39,440,000. A new 2024-model example lists at around $65,700,000, so a pre-owned 8X still sits well below new, but nowhere near the discount you would see on an older, more common type.

That tight band, rather than a wide spread, is itself the story: this is a newer-production aircraft with few airframes changing hands, so asking prices cluster instead of scattering the way an older type's would. A buyer comparing it against the older Falcon 7X is really paying a premium for the extra range and the newer production run.

Given how few 8Xs trade, treat any published figure as a starting point to confirm against the specific serial number rather than a fixed market price.

Who flies a Falcon 8X in the Gulf

The 8X suits the same government, diplomatic and UHNWI missions as the 7X, but for routes where even 5,350 nautical miles is not quite enough. Gulf-to-US-west-coast and Gulf-to-East-Asia routing without a technical stop is the mission this aircraft was stretched for, and Gulf state and government-adjacent buyers have been quick to take notice given how they already favor large-cabin Falcons for VIP-style flying.

Oman's smaller, Vision 2040-driven private aviation market is still finding its footing next to Saudi Arabia or Qatar, but Muscat-based buyers with genuinely long-haul missions are exactly the profile this aircraft fits, and Jetex's exclusive FBO concessions at Muscat and Salalah already give an operator the ground handling a jet like this needs. See our private jets for sale in Oman page for what else is realistic to source there.

If the extra range is more than your mission needs, the Falcon 7X covers the same three-zone cabin and trijet redundancy for a noticeably lower entry price. Photos and full spec sheets of specific Falcon 8X airframes are available on request via WhatsApp.

Operating costs

No directly sourced hourly figure exists for the Falcon 8X. As a stretched, newer-generation trijet, it likely runs somewhat above the 7X's estimated $4,500 to $5,500 per flight hour, though that comparison is itself an estimate worth verifying against a current operator's numbers rather than a confirmed quote.

As with any trijet, budget for three engine overhaul events across the airframe's life rather than two, plus fuel, crew, insurance and hangar space at your home base. The larger aft galley or crew-rest fit adds a little more cabin systems and catering equipment to maintain than the 7X carries, which is worth folding into a realistic annual number rather than treating the two aircraft as interchangeable on running cost. Our private jet operating costs in the Gulf guide breaks down how those line items compare across the four countries we cover.

What to check before you buy

A newer production run does not mean fewer checks, it changes which ones matter most. Before you commit, push for documentation on:

• Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307D engine program (ESP) status across all three engines
• EASy III avionics currency and fly-by-wire flight control software standard
• APU hours
• Winglet and wing structure inspection status
• Cabin connectivity, Ka-band or Starlink, and interior condition given the model's newer production run
• Landing gear overhaul cycle
