The Citation XLS is a beautiful Citation Aircraft manufactured for its comfort, range, and speed. Being a true Citation aircraft, it can quickly depart from airports with a short runway, yet fast enough at cruise speeds to keep up with the plane in its class.
With a stand-up cabin and a lavatory and a galley, this aircraft also makes for a comfortable 6 hours coast to coast flight. Club seating with a Divan in the back, it makes for a wonderfully accommodating eight-seat airplane.
Airplane capacity
- Two crew and additional flight attendant

Where the Cessna Citation XLS fits
The Citation XLS sits at the top of the light-jet category and is one of the most widely chartered business jets in service. It combines a stand-up-height cabin with short-field performance, which makes it unusually flexible across both city airports and smaller regional fields.
Choosing between this and the alternatives
If your typical trip is under an hour with three passengers, a smaller light jet costs less. For longer sectors, a midsize or super-midsize aircraft will be the better value. Compare hourly rates for every category in the private jet charter cost guide, and see the full light range on our light cabin aircraft page.
