Dassault Aviation's Falcon Privacy Suite is a new concept in passenger comfort. It is an individual compartment that is partitioned off from surrounding passengers and equipped with an electrically operated, reclining lie-flat bed. Up until now they have not been available on purpose-built business jets. The Dassault Privacy Suite will initially be offered on the new extra-widebody Falcon 6X twin and the Falcon 8X very-long range tri-jet.

“The Privacy Suite is a brand new high-end option that will be available only on Falcon business jets,” says executive vice president, civil aircraft Carlos Brana. “It responds to customer demand for a personal space to work, relax and get a proper rest during long-duration trips.”

The patented Privacy Suite concept is the result of a two year collaboration between industrial designers at Dassault's in-house Falcon design studio and the Dassault Aviation engineering department. It meets demanding requirements for aircraft seat design, safety, comfort and intuitive use.

The suite is separated from the cabin aisle by an adjustable mid-height partition. The seat itself is 22 inches wide in the Falcon 8X and 24 inches wide in the 6X. It is electrically operated and reclines to a full flat position to create a comfortable 80 inch (2.03 m) long bed.

When not fully reclined, the extra seat serves as an ottoman for a second occupant.

Overhead is a 24 inch 4K screen connected to the aircraft's cabin system and its various cabin entertainment options. There is a stowage drawer below and an adjacent side locker to store hanging garments. Side ledge storage includes USB charging ports. The suite is provided with its own ambient lighting and reading light.

More than one Privacy Suite can be installed on board an individual aircraft, depending on the model and overall configuration. As with all Falcon interior features, customers can choose from a wide range of fabrics and materials when personalising this passenger space.
