Questions
How many passengers does the Citation Longitude seat?
Up to 10 in a typical executive layout. Some aircraft are configured differently, so we confirm the exact seating for your trip when we quote.
How far can the Citation Longitude fly?
The manufacturer quotes a range of about 3,500 nautical miles. With a normal load and reserves we plan on about 3,000 nm nonstop; winds, passengers and luggage all change it.
Can the Citation Longitude fly London to Dubai nonstop?
London to Dubai is about 2,979 nm. That is close to its limit, so it is usually nonstop with a light load and calm winds, and sometimes needs a short fuel stop. We check on the day.
Can the Citation Longitude cross the Atlantic?
London to New York is about 2,986 nm. Flying west into the prevailing winds it behaves more like 3,434 nm. It normally makes one fuel stop, often in Iceland, Ireland or Canada. For nonstop transatlantic flights we suggest a larger, longer-range jet.
How fast is the Citation Longitude?
It typically cruises at about 476 knots (882 km/h). London to Nice takes about 1h 30m.
How much luggage fits on the Citation Longitude?
The baggage hold takes about 112 cubic feet (3.2 m³). How many bags that means depends on their size and shape, so tell us what you are bringing, including skis, golf bags or pushchairs, and we will confirm it fits or suggest a larger aircraft.
