Cessna Citation XLS+ Charter

Published Jun 15, 2026

The Cessna Citation XLS+ is one of the most popular midsize jets ever built, and a corridor favourite for the comfort it brings to the New York–Miami run: a true stand-up cabin, an enclosed lavatory and room for up to nine, with the short-field agility to use Teterboro and Opa-locka with ease.

The Citation XLS+ on the New York–Miami route

A 2,100-nautical-mile range and a 441-knot cruise put the New York–Miami flight at about two and a half hours nonstop. A 45,000-foot ceiling keeps it above the weather, and a short takeoff requirement opens the close-in business airports at both ends.

Cabin and baggage

The 18-foot-6 cabin offers full standing height at five-foot-eight, an enclosed lavatory and a refreshment galley — a genuine step up in comfort for the corridor. Around 90 cubic feet of baggage handles golf bags and full-size cases for a group of up to eight.
