The fastest cabin in business aviation
The Citation X earned its reputation on speed: a cruise of Mach 0.88 and a ceiling of 51,000 feet put it above the airline traffic and ahead of every other mid-size jet. From Luton or Farnborough that means Nice in under two hours, Ibiza in just over two and Athens or Marrakech comfortably without a stop. For a business party that wants to be in a meeting by mid-morning and home the same night, the Citation X is the aircraft to ask for.
Cabin and luggage
The stand-up cabin seats eight to ten in club seating with a full lavatory at the rear and a galley forward. The external hold takes 82 cubic feet of luggage, enough for ten passengers on a four-day trip. The aircraft in this listing was refitted in 2018 and is operated by a crew of two captains and a flight attendant.
Comparing it with the alternatives
On sectors under two hours a Citation XLS or Learjet 60 costs less and arrives only a few minutes later. Where the Citation X wins is on longer European and North African routes, where the speed advantage adds up to half an hour or more.
