Which should you charter?
Pick the Challenger 300 if you need the extra 80 km (43 nm) of range, headroom matters (the cabin is 8 cm taller) and you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 1.3 m longer).
Pick the Falcon 50EX if you want a wider cabin (6 cm more across).
The Falcon 50EX is estimated at $6,500/hr against $7,000/hr for the Challenger 300, about $500 less per hour. Real quotes depend on the operator, the aircraft's age and how far it has to fly to reach you.
Example trip: from London, New York, Miami and Dubai, both reach the same destinations on our route list nonstop, so range should not decide between them.
Nonstop means within 90% of published range, before winds, payload and fuel reserves; the operator confirms each route.
