Exxaero Netherlands Expands Fleet with First Falcon 8X Jet

Dutch private jet operator Exxaero has added its first Falcon 8X to its growing fleet. The aircraft, registered as PH-UTL (msn 498), officially began operations on February 13, 2025, flying from Geneva to Maastricht with touch-and-go maneuvers at Paris Chalons-Vatry. The jet later continued to Eindhoven before arriving at its new base in Cannes Mandelieu.

The 2.3-year-old Falcon 8X was previously registered as N498FJ and was only sporadically active between November 2024 and February 2025, conducting test flights around Dinard/St. Malo and Geneva. The addition of this ultra-long-range jet enhances Exxaero’s capabilities in serving high-end private and corporate aviation clients across Europe.

The Falcon 8X joins Exxaero’s all-Dassault fleet, which already includes three Falcon 900 jets: a Falcon 900(B), a Falcon 900B, and a Falcon 900(LX). In 2024, the airline retired its Falcon 7X aircraft as part of a fleet modernization strategy.

Exxaero also operates through its German division, Exxaero (Germany), which manages a Hawker 750 and a Premier IA. The new Falcon 8X, known for its extended range and advanced cabin comfort, positions the airline to better serve long-distance and luxury-focused clients.

With the Falcon 8X now in service, Exxaero continues to solidify its presence in the European private aviation market, leveraging Dassault’s cutting-edge technology to deliver reliable, premium charter services to a growing customer base.
