Cessna Citation M2 Charter

The Cessna Citation M2 charter is one of the most compelling entry-level private jet options available through Prime Jet Services, combining Citation’s legendary reliability with impressive performance in the Very Light Jet category. Capable of cruising at 404 kts / 748 km/h with a range of 1,550 nm, the M2 punches well above its class, connecting Dubai to regional destinations with speed and efficiency that larger, costlier jets often cannot justify for smaller groups. With seating for up to six passengers and twin Williams FJ44-1AP-21 engines delivering smooth, responsive power, this aircraft is the ideal choice for executives and leisure travellers seeking private aviation at its most accessible without compromising on the Cessna standard of quality.

Technical Specifications

History & Development

The Citation M2 was introduced in 2013 as a direct evolution of the long-running Citation CJ1+, modernising one of Cessna’s most trusted light jet platforms for a new generation of private aviation customers. Developed to address growing demand for a cost-efficient yet capable entry jet, the M2 incorporated a redesigned glass cockpit featuring the Garmin G3000 avionics suite, significantly enhancing situational awareness and pilot workload management. It received FAA type certification and was quickly embraced by fractional ownership programmes and private operators alike, owing to its combination of low operating costs and Citation’s deeply established maintenance network. The M2 has since established itself as one of the best-selling Very Light Jets in its class, cementing Cessna’s position as the benchmark for entry-level business jet reliability.

Cabin & Comfort

The Citation M2 cabin accommodates up to six passengers in a typically club-style arrangement of four forward-facing and aft-facing seats, offering a genuinely private atmosphere for small groups or travelling executives. Cabin height of 1.45 m and a width of 1.47 m make the environment comfortable for the category, while acoustic engineering keeps noise levels notably subdued for a jet of this size, supporting productive in-flight conversations or quiet relaxation. Passengers benefit from individual reading lights, climate controls, and a rear baggage area that holds 40 cu ft of luggage directly accessible from the cabin. A refreshment centre and private lavatory complete the onboard experience, and modern connectivity options keep passengers connected throughout the flight.

Ideal Routes from Dubai

With a range of 1,550 nm, the Citation M2 is perfectly suited to popular regional routes from Dubai, including Dubai to Muscat (approximately 30 minutes), Dubai to Riyadh (around 1 hour 10 minutes), and Dubai to Tbilisi (approximately 2 hours 45 minutes). Leisure and business travellers can also reach Colombo, Sri Lanka in approximately 3 hours, making the M2 a versatile short-to-medium-haul choice across the Gulf, Levant, and South Asia.

Compare Similar Aircraft

Clients exploring the Very Light Jet category frequently compare the Citation M2 against a handful of alternatives that offer similar or slightly extended capabilities. The Phenom 300E is a natural step-up comparison with greater range and a wider cabin, while the Citation Latitude appeals to those requiring a significantly larger stand-up cabin for the same group size, and the King Air 350 offers a turboprop alternative for shorter sectors at lower operating costs.
