Private jet charter aboard the Cessna Citation Longitude starts at $4,500 to $6,500 per flight hour, standard super midsize pricing for the quietest-cabin super midsize jet in its class. The Citation Longitude is a super midsize jet manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation), in production since 2019, seating up to ten passengers with a range of 3,500 nautical miles (4,028 miles) and a 476-knot cruise speed (548 mph). Cessna claims it has the lowest direct operating costs of any super midsize jet and the quietest cabin in its class. Hogani Jets coordinates each Citation Longitude private jet charter through licensed Part 135 operators.

The Citation Longitude was designed around three specific claims Cessna makes for the super midsize category: the quietest cabin, the lowest direct operating costs, and a 3,500-nautical-mile range. It is the top-of-range Citation jet and the successor to the Citation Sovereign line, sharing the same Honeywell HTF7700L turbofans used across that family.

A Garmin G5000 avionics suite with autothrottles and the LinxUs real-time diagnostic system round out the cockpit, while a wireless cabin management system lets passengers control lighting, temperature, and entertainment from their seats. The Citation Longitude suits travelers who prioritize quiet, efficient long-range flying in a flat-floor stand-up cabin.

The Citation Longitude entered service in 2019 as the top-of-range jet in the Cessna Citation line. Honeywell HTF7700L turbofans, a Garmin G5000 avionics suite with autothrottles and Cessna's exclusive LinxUs diagnostic system define this current-production aircraft.

Hourly Charter Rate

$4,500 to $6,500

Cessna claims the Citation Longitude has the quietest cabin and the lowest direct operating costs of any super midsize jet, citing an hourly operating cost of approximately $2,903 for owners. The LinxUs diagnostics system monitors the aircraft continuously during flight and transmits fault reports in real time via satellite, reducing ground turnaround time when maintenance is needed.

A super midsize jet trades a midsize jet's lower hourly rate for a larger cabin, longer range, and stronger climb performance. At $4,500 to $6,500 per hour, private jet charter on the Challenger 350 runs above a midsize jet such as the Citation XLS, but its 3,200-nautical-mile range and wide cabin suit long-range and transcontinental trips a midsize jet cannot match.

  • More range: 3,200 nm versus roughly 2,100 to 3,000 nm for most midsize jets.
  • Higher cost: $4,500 to $6,500 per hour versus $3,500 to $5,500 for a midsize jet.
  • Wider cabin: 7.2 feet of width, the widest in the super midsize comparison set, versus a midsize jet's narrower cabin.
  • Best mission: long-range and transcontinental trips for up to ten passengers where cabin width and range matter most.

The Citation Longitude typically seats ten passengers in a standard executive configuration, with capacity up to ten in high-density layouts.

  • A flat-floor stand-up cabin with fully berthable seats and best-in-class legroom per Cessna is standard.
  • A wireless cabin management system controls lighting, temperature, and entertainment from seat-mounted displays.
  • An enclosed aft lavatory and forward refreshment galley are standard. Confirm exact configuration at booking.
  • Confirm exact cabin configuration and entertainment options at booking, as equipment varies by aircraft.

The Citation Longitude performs best on long-range routes where its 3,500 nm range, quiet cabin, and fuel efficiency deliver the most value.
