Manufacturer-published figures for a typical configuration. Individual aircraft vary with model year, interior fit and optional equipment, and runway requirements move considerably with altitude, temperature and weight — the operator's own performance data governs every trip.

Our read

What it does well, and what it costs you.

What it does well

  • True stand-up cabin in a midsize airframe
  • Enormous 127 cu ft baggage hold
  • Short-field capable at around 3,600 ft

The trade-off

Slightly slower than the fastest midsize jets in exchange for the cabin.

We publish the downside because you would find it anyway, and because we do not own this aircraft — there is no reason for us to oversell it.

Range in practice

Where a Cessna Citation Latitude will take you nonstop.

Great-circle distances with block times computed from this aircraft's 446 kt cruise plus a taxi allowance.

Runway

Where it can land.

The Cessna Citation Latitude needs about 3,580 ft at sea level, which clears 2,719 of the 2,746 US fields we publish. Thin air needs more of it — roughly 3% per 1,000 ft of elevation — so the demanding fields below are worked out at their own altitude, not at sea level.

Indicative, and not a performance calculation. Real balanced field length depends on temperature, weight, runway slope and the day — and it is the operator who signs for it. Treat this as the question to ask, not the answer.

Questions

Cessna Citation Latitude, answered

How many passengers does the Cessna Citation Latitude carry?

Typically 8–9 in a charter configuration. Exact seating varies by operator, since interiors differ between individual aircraft — we confirm the layout of the specific tail before you accept a quote.

What is the range of the Cessna Citation Latitude?

Published range is about 2,700 nautical miles at 446 knots. Real-world range is lower with a full cabin, strong headwinds or hot-and-high departures, which is exactly the kind of thing we check before proposing it for your trip.

What runway does the Cessna Citation Latitude need?

Around 3,580 ft at sea level on a standard day near maximum weight. Altitude, temperature and weight change this significantly — the operator's performance data is what governs whether it can use your airport.

How much does it cost to charter a Cessna Citation Latitude?

We publish an indicative market range for this cabin class ($3,500–$6,000 per hour) so you can size the trip, not a firm rate for this aircraft — the real number depends on where the aircraft is positioned, the season and the airports, which is why we source your specific trip. Altessair adds a disclosed brokerage fee to the operator's price, shown as a separate line on every quote.
