The 10 Most Expensive New Private Jets

The prices of new private jets can vary wildly — with the most expensive models costing more than 25 times the price of the cheapest. Updated March 2026. All prices are standard factory list prices for new aircraft. Options, customizations, and operating costs are not included. This list covers purpose-built business jets only — no converted airliners. Since this article was originally written, the G650 production has ended, the G700 and G800 have entered service, the Global 8000 delivered its first aircraft in December 2025, and the Falcon 10X has rolled out but pushed its first delivery to 2027.

#10 — Gulfstream G600

The G600 is the sister aircraft to the G500, both unveiled in 2014. It measures 5 feet longer than the G500 and can fly 1,300 nautical miles further. In the second quarter of 2017, 80% of all Gulfstream orders were for the G500 and G600 combined — a testament to how popular this platform became almost immediately.

The G600 is capable of near-supersonic speeds and has earned over 20 speed records, including Savannah to Geneva in 7 hours and 21 minutes at Mach 0.90. First customer delivery was in August 2019, with EASA certification following in December 2020.

#9 — Bombardier Global 6500

Part of the Bombardier Global family — a lineage tracing back to the Global Express announced in 1991 — the Global 6500 was announced alongside the Global 5500 in May 2018 and entered service by the end of 2019. It sits just above the Global 5500 in Bombardier’s lineup with a maximum range of 6,600 nautical miles and a high-speed cruise of Mach 0.88.

The Global 6500 has a notably higher depreciation rate than the G600. In just four years of production, some examples have lost $13 million in value — a useful data point for buyers evaluating new versus pre-owned options.

#8 — Dassault Falcon 8X

The Dassault Falcon 8X is the flagship aircraft for Dassault Falcon — the civilian division of Dassault Aviation, France’s premier aeronautics corporation. Announced in May 2014 and first delivered in October 2016, the 8X is based on the Falcon 7X with improvements to interior, exterior, and performance. One of its most distinctive features: it uses a three-engine propulsion system, making Dassault the only business jet manufacturer still producing trijets.

Despite its age, some 8X aircraft sell above list price due to sustained demand and limited supply — a pattern seen across the top end of the business aviation market.

#7 — Gulfstream G650

Launched internally in 2005 and unveiled publicly in 2008, the G650 was the largest, fastest, and most expensive aircraft Gulfstream had ever produced at the time. Those crowns have since passed to the G700 and G800 — but the G650 remains one of the most popular long-range business jets ever built, with over 500 examples delivered. Production ended in February 2025, with the G650 formally replaced by the G800. It can carry up to 19 passengers for up to 7,000 nautical miles, connecting London to virtually any airport in the world except the southernmost reaches of South America and Australasia.

In 2013, Gulfstream flew the G650 around the world in just 41 hours and 7 minutes — the fastest westbound circumnavigation ever completed by a non-supersonic aircraft.

#6 — Gulfstream G650ER

The G650ER is the ultra-long-range variant of the G650, extending its reach by an additional 500 nautical miles thanks to an extra 4,000 lb fuel capacity. This gives the G650ER the ability to fly non-stop from London to the southern tip of South America or from New York to Delhi. Deliveries began two years after the standard G650.

Interestingly, the same-age G650 and G650ER have nearly identical pre-owned values despite the $5 million new price gap — suggesting the market prices the extended range as a significant asset over the long term.

#5 — Gulfstream G800

Announced in October 2021, the G800 received FAA and EASA certification in April 2025 and saw its first delivery in August 2025. It replaces the G650, which rolled off the assembly line for the final time in February 2025. Sharing the G700’s wing and Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines but with a G650-sized cabin approximately 10 feet shorter, the G800 achieved an updated maximum range of 8,200 nautical miles and a certified top speed of Mach 0.935. It directly competes with the Bombardier Global 8000. Fortune 500 companies have been cited as primary buyers, with the first 20 deliveries going to existing G650 customers.

#4 — Bombardier Global 7500

The Global 7500 held the title of longest-range purpose-built business jet in production until very recently. Announced in 2010, first flown in November 2016, and entering service in December 2018, it features a 7,700 nm range, four distinct cabin zones, and a longer cabin than the Global 6000 it builds upon. In October 2019, it set the record for the longest business jet mission ever flown — a 17-hour flight from Sydney to Detroit.

#3 — Dassault Falcon 10X

The Dassault Falcon 10X is the French manufacturer’s latest flagship — and a significant step up from the 8X it eventually replaces. Notably, the 10X uses two engines rather than three, likely marking the end of Dassault’s trijet era. Dassault claims the 10X delivers “a level of comfort, versatility, and technology unmatched by any purpose-built business jet.”

Capable of completing non-stop routes from New York to Shanghai, LA to Sydney, Hong Kong to New York, and Paris to Santiago, the 10X has a stated maximum range of 7,500 nautical miles and a top speed of Mach 0.925. The aircraft rolled out publicly at Dassault’s Bordeaux-Mérignac facility in March 2026 before 400+ customers and industry guests. First flight is expected in 2026 and first deliveries have been pushed to 2027 — approximately two years behind the original target, a common outcome for clean-sheet programs of this complexity. Buyers seeking a certified aircraft in 2026 are choosing between the G800 and Global 8000.

#2 — Gulfstream G700

The G700 is now fully in service, having received FAA certification in March 2024 and EASA certification in April 2024. The first deliveries went to U.S. customers in April 2024 after Gulfstream stockpiled more than 30 aircraft during certification. Qatar Executive was an early customer and the fleet passed its 50th delivery in May 2025, with the fleet accumulating over 11,700 flight hours within its first year of operation. Gulfstream has recorded over 80 city-pair speed records with the G700.

With the G650 production ending and the G800 now in service, the G700 holds the longest cabin in the Gulfstream lineup — approximately 10 feet longer than the G800 — with up to five living zones and a dedicated master suite with shower. It is the aircraft to choose when cabin space takes priority over absolute range.

#1 — Bombardier Global 8000

The most expensive purpose-built private jet ever produced — and now in service. The Global 8000 received Transport Canada type certification on November 5, 2025 and FAA certification in December 2025. The first aircraft was delivered on December 8, 2025, to Canadian entrepreneur Patrick Dovigi in a ceremony at Bombardier’s assembly centre in Mississauga. NetJets has since taken delivery of its own examples. With a top speed of Mach 0.95, the Global 8000 is the fastest civil aircraft since the Concorde was retired in 2003.

Powered by two General Electric Passport engines, it carries up to 19 passengers across four living zones and boasts the lowest cabin altitude of any business aircraft at 2,691 ft at 41,000 ft — a genuine comfort differentiator for long overnight flights. Production is expected to run at approximately 40 units per year going forward.

Why Are Some Jets More Expensive Pre-Owned Than New?

Several jets on this list — including the G600 and Falcon 8X — sell for above their new list price on the pre-owned market. This is a straightforward supply and demand story: private jet demand surged while production and supply chains lagged. Buyers willing to pay a premium for immediate delivery have pushed used prices above factory list on the most in-demand models.

The point at which pre-owned values typically fall below new list price is when the new aircraft warranty expires — at which point a new aircraft becomes meaningfully more attractive than a comparable used one.
