Citation Longitude Private Jet Charter

The Cessna Citation Longitude is a super-midsize business jet manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation), certified in 2019 as an evolution of the Citation Latitude with a longer fuselage for greater range and capacity. It stands out for its spacious flat-floor cabin, transatlantic/transcontinental range, advanced technology, low operating costs, high reliability, and excellent balance of performance, comfort, and value—making it ideal for executives seeking jet-like luxury on longer routes without ultra-heavy jet pricing.

The Citation Longitude can accommodate up to 12 passengers in maximum configurations (with room for crew), though typical charters seat 8 to 9 passengers comfortably in executive setups (often with club seating and divans for flexibility), providing ample space for small to medium groups or business teams.

The cabin measures approximately 6 feet in height, 6.4–6.5 feet (77 inches) in width, and 25 feet 2 inches in length, offering a flat-floor stand-up design with generous volume (around 1,085 cubic feet) and 112 cubic feet of baggage capacity. It features large windows for natural light, modern finishes, and a practical layout that maximizes movement and comfort.

The maximum range is approximately 3,500 nautical miles (with 4 passengers, or up to 4,000+ nm depending on load and conditions), enabling nonstop transcontinental and many transatlantic flights, while the maximum cruise speed is around 483–555 mph (with long-range cruise options for efficiency) and a service ceiling of 45,000 feet.

It is powered by two Honeywell HTF7000 (or HTF7700L) turbofan engines, delivering strong thrust, efficiency, and reliability. Highlights include swept wing and T-tail design for enhanced performance, rapid climb, low cabin altitude for reduced fatigue, high dispatch reliability, and the ability to cruise above weather at high altitudes with smooth handling.

The Citation Longitude requires approximately 4,810 feet for takeoff (at maximum takeoff weight and sea level conditions) and offers solid short-field performance for its class, allowing access to a wide range of airports, including those with moderate runways or higher elevations.

It excels on transcontinental and transatlantic routes, such as New York to London, Los Angeles to New York, Paris to Dubai, or coast-to-coast U.S. missions, as well as trips requiring extra baggage (golf outings, ski trips, or business equipment), where spaciousness, speed, and efficiency minimize travel time and stops.

The aircraft features a high-tech cabin management system controllable via mobile device (for window shades, lighting, temperature, movies, and music), high-speed Wi-Fi, inflight entertainment system, enclosed private lavatory, individual seat controls, ample storage (including for large gear), and a modern, spacious interior for a productive or relaxing flight experience.

The typical hourly charter rate for a Cessna Citation Longitude starts at approximately $6,950+ (with industry rates often ranging from $5,000 to $7,800+ per hour depending on route, operator, configuration, fuel surcharges, availability, and additional services; contact Stratos Jets for a precise, customized quote).
