About the Cessna Citation Sovereign

The Cessna Citation Latitude is a midsize business jet that entered service in 2015 as Cessna's answer to the Embraer Legacy 450 and Bombardier Learjet 75, targeting the sweet spot between light jets and super-midsize cabins. Built in Wichita, Kansas, the Latitude features a flat-floor cabin that's unusually wide for its class (six feet across) and can seat up to nine passengers in a configuration that prioritizes comfort over density. Powered by twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D1 turbofans, it cruises at Mach 0.80 and delivers a range of approximately 2,700 nautical miles, making it ideal for coast-to-coast U.S.

flights or transatlantic hops with favorable winds. The aircraft's Garmin G5000 avionics suite includes synthetic vision, autothrottle, and touchscreen controllers, representing a significant leap in cockpit technology when it debuted. The Latitude quickly became one of Cessna's best-selling Citations, appealing to fractional operators, charter companies, and corporate flight departments seeking a reliable, spacious platform with lower operating costs than older super-midsize jets.

Its 45,000-foot service ceiling and short-field performance, requiring just 3,580 feet for takeoff at maximum weight, give it access to smaller airports that larger jets cannot reach. The type has proven particularly popular with NetJets, which operates one of the world's largest Latitude fleets for its fractional ownership program. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
