5. Boeing Business Jet MAX 9

Max. speed: Mach 0.79

The Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) MAX 9 is the best combination of speed and luxury. Although it is not the fastest jet, it is worthy of mention due to its size, which is complemented by an above-average speed of Mach 0.79. This long-haul business jet, based on the well-known Boeing 737 MAX series, undoubtedly and easily combines speed with a spacious and luxurious cabin.

The cabin, which normally seats 220 passengers in a commercial airliner, provides enough space for 19 passengers to relax, work and entertain. According to Paramount Business Jets, it would cost $68.8 million to purchase a new aircraft, or $18,600 per hour of lease.

4. Dassault Falcon 7X/8X

Max. speed: Mach 0.9

Dassault Aviation's Falcon series has long been synonymous with speed, and the Falcon 7X and 8X continue this legacy. These French-made jets are capable of reaching speeds of approximately Mach 0.90. They offer a winning combination of performance and elegance.

The 7X, first introduced in 2005, is a cantilevered tri-jet monoplane with a high sweep wing. Discerning travelers can charter the 7X for approximately $7,500 to $8,500 or the 8X for approximately $9,500 to $12,500 per hour with evoJets.

3. Cessna Citation X

Max. speed: Mach 0.92

The Cessna Citation X aircraft of the Citation family of manufacturers has earned a reputation as one of the fastest business jets in the sky. With a cruising speed of Mach 0.92, this elegant and powerful aircraft can quickly cover long distances.

According to Paramount Business Jets, the Citation X can take passengers from New York to Los Angeles or Seattle to Miami as much as 35 minutes faster than others in its class.
