About the Cessna Citation Bravo

The Bravo is what happens when a manufacturer takes its most trusted airframe and quietly modernises it. Cessna kept the gentle, forgiving Citation II fuselage that thousands of pilots already knew, then fitted fresh FADEC-managed Pratt & Whitney PW530A turbofans and updated avionics — turning a 1970s favourite into a 1996 light jet that cost less to buy and run than anything as capable. It was never fast at 796 km/h, and it never tried to be. It was easy, economical and dependable, and it sold accordingly: with around 35 in European charter alone, the Bravo is one of the most widely flown light jets on the continent.

Performance Excellence

Two crew operate the Bravo over 2,963 km / 1,600 nm at up to 796 km/h (430 ktas), happiest on the short, frequent legs that fill a charter calendar. Around 35 serve European charter at roughly €4,200 per hour — one of the largest light-jet fleets in the region. Modest on paper and modest on price, its real strength is ubiquity and dependability: the modernised Citation II that became a default choice for short-haul private travel.

Cabin Comfort

Inside, the Bravo is unpretentious and right-sized for the job: 5.45 m long, 1.49 m wide and 1.44 m tall, seating six in a comfortable club without wasting a centimetre on theatre. An enclosed lavatory and galley make it genuinely usable for a full working day of two-hour hops, and large windows keep a small cabin feeling open. This is the cabin of an aircraft bought to be used hard and often, not admired — easy to step into, easy to live with, and familiar to more European passengers than almost any jet in its class.

High-speed WiFi keeps you connected throughout your flight, allowing you to work or stay in touch. A full galley enables fresh catering service during your journey. A private lavatory ensures comfort on longer matches.
