Among the quickest ways down the Eastern Seaboard
At about 527 knots true airspeed — near its Mach 0.935 maximum — the Citation X+ is one of the fastest civilian jets in the sky, faster than anything else offered on this route. New York to Miami, roughly 950 nautical miles, falls to just over two hours in the air, shaving meaningful time off an already short hop.
A 51,000-foot ceiling, higher than most super-midsize jets, keeps it above much of the weather and the airline traffic over the Northeast, so the routing stays direct and the speed is not given back in vectors.
Cabin, range, and luggage
The 25-foot-2 cabin seats eight in a stand-up double-club layout. It is narrower than the wide-cabin jets in this class at five feet seven inches across — the trade-off for that speed is a trimmer fuselage — but it stands a full five feet eight inches tall, with 82 cubic feet of luggage for a group's bags.
Range is 3,242 nautical miles, so the trip leaves a generous margin — far more range than this route asks for. Twin Rolls-Royce AE3007C2 engines supply the thrust behind the speed.
