Cessna Citation Xls Gen 2 Private Jet Charter

About the Cessna Citation Xls Gen 2

The Citation XLS Gen2, launched in 2023, is Cessna's modernisation of an aircraft that was already the segment's default. The headline change is in the cockpit: a clean-sheet Garmin G5000 flight deck with three large touchscreen displays and graphical, intuitive controls replaces the previous-generation avionics — sharpening pilot workload, situational awareness and integration with current airspace systems. Inside the cabin the Gen2 brings new seats, updated materials, modern lighting and quieter cabin treatment, and the underlying airframe and engines remain the proven, popular XLS. Range is 3,441 km at 870 km/h. It carries 8 passengers (up to 9), with around 25 in European charter — a fleet growing rapidly as new deliveries continue. The Gen2 is the XLS brought current — the same successful jet, in its most up-to-date form.

Performance Excellence

Two crew operate the XLS Gen2 across 3,441 km / 1,858 nm at up to 870 km/h (470 ktas) on Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C turbofans, with a Garmin G5000 touchscreen flight deck — the modernised version of the segment's best-selling midsize. Around 25 examples serve European charter at roughly €6,500 per hour, with the fleet expanding as deliveries continue. Its case is the cockpit and cabin update: current G5000 avionics, refreshed interior and refined systems on the proven XLS airframe, in the version that keeps the segment's default jet competitive into a new decade.

Cabin Comfort

The XLS Gen2's cabin is the model's familiar stand-up midsize space — 5.64 m long, 1.68 m wide, 1.73 m tall — comprehensively brought up to 2023 specification. New seats with redesigned ergonomics, updated leather and veneer combinations, modern LED cabin lighting under integrated control, and enhanced soundproofing that lowers the cruise noise level: each step is incremental, but together they shift the cabin's character from late-1990s mature to genuinely contemporary. Eight passengers in a club-four and pair enjoy the same generous proportions that made the XLS famous, now in the most current finish Cessna has fitted to the platform. For passengers used to older XLS examples, the Gen2 feels recognisably the same — only newer in every detail.

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 flights.
