Cessna Citation Longitude.

When it comes to booking a Cessna Citation Longitude charter, few aircraft in the Super Midsize Jet category offer the same combination of transcontinental range, spacious flat-floor cabin, and refined performance. As the largest Citation ever built, the Longitude raises the bar for its class — capable of carrying up to 12 passengers across 3,500 nautical miles without a fuel stop. Its twin Honeywell HTF7700L engines deliver a brisk cruise speed of 476 knots, ensuring your journey is as swift as it is comfortable. Prime Jet Services is proud to offer access to the Cessna Citation Longitude for discerning clients departing from Dubai and across the globe.

History & Development

The Cessna Citation Longitude was developed by Textron Aviation as the flagship of the Citation family, designed from the outset to compete at the top end of the Super Midsize Jet market. After years of development and engineering refinement, it received FAA type certification in 2019, marking a significant milestone for the Citation lineage. The aircraft was purpose-built to surpass the capabilities of its predecessor, the Citation Sovereign, offering a substantially larger cabin, greater range, and a more advanced avionics suite in the form of the Garmin G5000 integrated flight deck. Since its entry into service, the Longitude has earned strong operator and passenger reviews for its combination of performance, cabin quality, and operational economics.

Cabin & Comfort

The Longitude’s cabin is the defining achievement of this aircraft — at 9.07 metres long, 2.03 metres wide, and 1.83 metres tall, it is one of the most generous stand-up cabins available in the Super Midsize category, allowing most passengers to move through the aisle with ease throughout the flight. The flat floor and well-considered interior layout typically accommodate up to 12 passengers across a club seating configuration, with individual chairs that convert for rest on longer sectors. Noise-reduction engineering keeps the cabin exceptionally quiet at cruise altitude, while a dedicated full-size lavatory and a forward galley equipped for in-flight catering add meaningful comfort on transatlantic-range missions. The aircraft’s 128 cubic feet of dedicated baggage space — accessible during flight — means passengers travelling with substantial luggage need not compromise.

Ideal Routes from Dubai

With a range of 3,500 nautical miles, the Cessna Citation Longitude opens up a compelling set of nonstop routes from Dubai — including Dubai to London (approximately 7 hours), Dubai to Mumbai (under 3 hours), and Dubai to Nairobi (approximately 4.5 hours). Eastward, it comfortably reaches Bangkok or Singapore in roughly 6 to 7 hours, making it an ideal choice for both business delegations and leisure travellers exploring Asia. For regional clients, point-to-point connections across the Gulf, Levant, and East Africa are easily handled with significant payload flexibility.

Compare Similar Aircraft

Clients considering the Cessna Citation Longitude often evaluate it alongside a small group of highly capable alternatives in the Super Midsize and upper-midsize segments. The most frequently compared aircraft include the Citation Latitude for those prioritising short-range efficiency, the Challenger 350 and Challenger 3500 for their proven track record and wide-body feel, and the Praetor 600 for passengers seeking extended range with a similarly spacious flat-floor cabin.
