Why the Dassault Falcon 6X Fits the Bahamas
With 5,500 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Nassau and cities such as Dallas, Denver and Paris, allowing for reserves and routing. Between June 1st and November 30th the islands are in hurricane season, and we watch the tropics with you before any summer or fall departure.
Larger aircraft usually fly into Nassau or Grand Bahama, and Nassau is open around the clock, while the operator confirms which Bahamas airport suits the aircraft on the day. The runway an aircraft needs is calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm it with the operator for your trip.
How Bahamas Clients Use the Dassault Falcon 6X
These cabins have beds or flat seats, so overnight crossings between Europe and the islands end with passengers who have actually slept. Let us know each passenger’s nationality early, because it can affect the routing.
Name the island, the head count and the gear (coolers, rods and dive tanks count), and your advisor will check this aircraft against the trip or put a better match in front of you.

- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
