The Cessna Citation Latitude is a midsize business jet manufactured by Textron Aviation, widely regarded as one of the most versatile and passenger-friendly aircraft in its class. With a stand-up cabin, impressive transcontinental range, and outstanding operating economics, a Cessna Citation Latitude charter delivers a premium travel experience for up to nine passengers.
Aircraft Overview
The Citation Latitude made its first flight in 2014 and entered service in 2015, quickly establishing itself as a benchmark midsize jet for the private aviation market. Developed by Cessna — a Textron Aviation brand with decades of Citation heritage — the Latitude was engineered from the outset to offer a wider, taller cabin than typical midsize competitors. It became one of the best-selling business jets in its segment within just a few years of introduction, prized for its flat-floor cabin and class-leading passenger comfort. The aircraft’s Pratt & Whitney Canada engines deliver efficient performance across a broad range of mission profiles.
