A heavy jet is where Dubai’s long-haul flying really begins. The cabin matters on a flight of seven hours or more, and so does the ability to go direct rather than plan a stop. For a delegation, a board party or a family moving together to Europe, this is usually the category.

Why the Dassault Falcon 2000S Works in Dubai
Where a heavy jet fits a Dubai trip
The calendar matters here as much as the geography. The cooler months, broadly November through April, are the busy half of the year and the tightest for aircraft and arrival times. Through the summer it is hot and much quieter, which usually means better availability and better pricing for anyone whose dates can move. Ramadan and Eid shift through the calendar each year and change the pattern around them, so your advisor checks them against the date that year rather than assuming a time-frame.
Whether a heavy jet flies your leg direct is the operator’s calculation against payload, winds and the fields at both ends, and we get it in writing. Out of Dubai, Europe is usually comfortable and the Americas are where the question gets interesting, so tell us the destination and we will be straight about it.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- 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.
Charter Pricing Reference
Industry hourly rates for the Dassault Falcon 2000S run $8,000 to $10,500 per hour as of 7/2026. Actual quotes vary by operator, routing, positioning, and date.
What moves the number on a Dubai trip is the length of the flight and the positioning. An aircraft already in the region prices very differently from one ferried in for your departure, and on a long flight that positioning leg can be a real share of the total. Your advisor will tell you which your quote is built on.
