About the Cessna Citation CJ3+

Citation CJ3+ is a light Citation positioned for charter missions where cabin comfort, airport access and operating efficiency must be balanced. Textron Aviation lists a maximum range of 2040 nm (3778 km) and a maximum cruise speed of 416 ktas (770 km/h). These are manufacturer maximum figures, not a promise that every charter can fly that distance nonstop. Payload, passenger and baggage load, winds, temperature, routing, airport elevation and regulatory reserves determine the real mission.

For charter planning, Flyius treats 6 passengers as a more realistic comfort target, while the certified or listed maximum is 9. The right reason to select this aircraft is not the headline range alone: it is the combination of cabin size, runway performance, baggage capacity, fleet availability and total trip price on the requested route.

Performance Excellence

Manufacturer maximum figures: range 2040 nm (3778 km), maximum cruise 416 ktas (770 km/h), maximum operating altitude 45000 ft, takeoff distance approximately 969 m and landing distance approximately 844 m under the manufacturer test basis. Cabin dimensions are approximately 1.45 × 1.47 × 4.78 m.

These values use a defined manufacturer configuration and test standard. They must not be read as guaranteed charter performance. The operating crew must calculate runway and range feasibility for the actual aircraft, weather, payload and reserves.

Cabin Comfort

The listed cabin measures approximately 1.45 m high, 1.47 m wide and 4.78 m long. Listed baggage capacity is about 454 kg / 1.84 m³. The actual seating plan, lavatory arrangement, Wi-Fi, galley, refurbishment standard and baggage access vary by individual tail and operator. A charter quote should therefore identify the exact registration or provide current cabin photographs and a configuration sheet before payment.

On a real trip, passenger comfort depends as much on sector length, seat layout and baggage as on the aircraft family name. Flyius uses the comfortable-passenger figure for comparison and asks the operator to confirm the exact cabin before recommending the aircraft.

High-speed WiFi keeps you connected throughout your flight, allowing you to work or stay in touch.

A private lavatory ensures comfort on longer flights.

Why Choose the Citation CJ3+?

  • Efficiency: Optimized fuel consumption at — liters per hour
  • Reliability: Powered by proven jet engines
  • Flexibility: Access to smaller airports worldwide
  • Comfort: Pressurization altitude of 0 ft for a more comfortable cabin environment

Whether you're traveling for business or leisure, the Citation CJ3+ delivers an exceptional private aviation experience.
