Citation Sovereign / Sovereign+
Announced at the 1998 NBAA convention and certified in 2004, the Citation Sovereign was built on a stretched Citation Excel fuselage paired with a new larger wing and more powerful engines. The later Citation Sovereign+ added winglets, Garmin G5000 avionics, auto throttles, and updated engines while keeping seating for up to 9 passengers.
Citation Sovereign / Sovereign+
The Largest Cabin in Its Class, With the Runway Performance to Match
Cessna designed the Sovereign to solve a specific problem: the Citation Excel was selling well, but operators kept asking for more range, more cabin space, and better performance on shorter runways without moving up to a heavy jet. The answer was a stretched fuselage joined to a larger, purpose-built wing with generous trailing-edge flaps, giving the aircraft access to airports that most jets in this category cannot use. Runways as short as 3,530 feet are within its capabilities, a meaningful advantage for groups flying into smaller markets.
Combined with a 3,200-nautical-mile range, that capability makes a Citation sovereign charter worth considering for trips that other super-medium jets handle less gracefully. Inside, passengers find the largest interior of any jet, its vintage, over 24 feet long with stand-up headroom, 14 large windows, and enough storage for six golf bags or seven full-sized suitcases. A double-club configuration seats eight comfortably, with a ninth option at the front. NetJets operated 44 of them at the peak of the fleet, a meaningful endorsement from the operator with the most choices on the market.
The Sovereign+ pushed the platform further with winglets, a Garmin G5000 flight deck, autothrottles, and updated engines. Passengers notice the difference in smoothness and noise levels. Operators notice it in reliability figures, which remain above 99% across both variants.
A group flying from Dallas to Boston boards an aircraft that flies nonstop and arrives at a cabin that has not asked anything of the people inside. Celebrity Jet Charter coordinates aircraft availability and ground logistics to match the schedule. These aircraft are operated by experienced crews familiar with the Citation platform across the full range of airports it was built to serve.

Super Medium Jets
Challenger 300 / 350
Certified in 2003 as a clean-sheet design originally called the Continental, the Challenger 300 went on to become one of the most delivered super medium jets ever built, with 457 aircraft delivered before the 350 took over in 2014. The 350 became the fastest business jet in history to reach 300 deliveries in its category.
Challenger 3500
Designed as the next evolution of the Challenger 350, the Challenger 3500 brings updated cabin technology, refined seating, and dependable performance to one of the most trusted super midsize platforms.
Citation X
Some travelers choose an aircraft for the cabin. Others choose it for the range. The Citation X exists for the ones who choose it for the clock. Certified in 1996 as the fastest civilian business jet ever built, it arrives coast to coast up to 35 minutes ahead of anything else in its category. Eight passengers, 3,215 nautical miles, Mach 0.90.
Citation Longitude
With a spacious stand-up cabin and seating for up to 12 passengers, the Longitude is a strong option for private flyers who want more range and comfort without moving into a heavy jet.
Citation Sovereign / Sovereign+
Announced at the 1998 NBAA convention and certified in 2004, the Citation Sovereign was built on a stretched Citation Excel fuselage paired with a new larger wing and more powerful engines. The later Citation Sovereign+ added winglets, Garmin G5000 avionics, auto throttles, and updated engines while keeping seating for up to 9 passengers.
Embraer Praetor 600
A strong choice for both business and leisure travel, the Praetor 600 offers a comfortable cabin, generous baggage capacity, and the ability to connect many city pairs nonstop.
Falcon 50EX
When it first debuted, it made history as the first private jet certified to cross the Atlantic, proving that you didn’t need a commercial airliner to reach the other side of the world. Born from the same engineering DNA as high-performance fighter jets, the 50EX was designed for travelers who refuse to choose between safety, comfort, and the ability to land exactly where they need to be.
Gulfstream G200 / G250 / G280
When you hear the name “Gulfstream,” you likely think of massive jets that hop between continents. The G200 and G250/G280 series take all that prestige and engineering and pack it into a more agile package.
Gulfstream 300
Based on the Gulfstream IV platform, the G300 offers a spacious cabin, seating for up to 14 passengers, and reliable range for longer private flights.
Hawker 4000
The Hawker 4000 is one of the best-kept secrets in the sky. While other manufacturers stuck to traditional metal construction, Hawker did something radical: they built the fuselage out of carbon fiber.
