Super-midsize jet charter
Super-midsize jets fly true transcontinental missions nonstop — New York–Los Angeles, Miami–Seattle — with a wide, flat-floor cabin, full galley and the fastest cruise speeds in charter. The Citation X remains the fastest civilian aircraft in service at Mach 0.935. The go-to class for coast-to-coast business trips with a team.
Every model below is a business jet in the super-midsize jet class: 8–10 passengers, about 3,200 nm of range and $4,300–$6,000 per flight hour in charter.
Indicative hourly rates before positioning, fees and taxes (including the 7.5% US federal excise tax); not an offer.
