The Citation Excel on the Miami–New York route

A 1,657-nautical-mile range covers the 1,000 miles nonstop with a full cabin and reserves. At Mach 0.75 it flies the route in roughly 2.5 hours, with the same easy manners on shorter runways as the later XLS+.

Cabin and luggage

The 18-foot-6 cabin offers full 5-foot-8 standing height and seats seven to eight in a club arrangement with an enclosed lavatory. An 80-cubic-foot hold handles the group's luggage — full midsize comfort, often at a lower charter rate than newer aircraft.

  • Full stand-up cabin and enclosed lavatory
  • A lower-cost route into the midsize class
  • Nonstop Miami to New York with a full cabin
  • Excellent runway flexibility
  • Widely operated and easy to source
