Seating up to nine passengers, the Latitude offers a spacious, flat-floor cabin with stand-up headroom, wide reclining seats, large windows, and the latest in-flight technology to ensure a seamless travel experience.

Longitude


First flying in 2016 and entering service in 2019, the Longitude was designed to offer transatlantic range whilst providing the best cabin experience with the lowest operating cost.

 

As the largest and most advanced aircraft in the Citation family, the super-midsize jet offers significantly greater range than its sibling, paired with a spacious, six-foot, stand-up cabin ideal for nonstop transatlantic routes, such as Paris to Dubai and New York to London.
