Airbus Acj320 Neo vs Boeing Bbj Max 8 vs Cessna Citation Longitude vs Embraer Lineage 1000e vs Embraer Phenom 300e vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Airbus ACJ320neo and Boeing BBJ 737 MAX are airliner-based VIP jets in the large-cabin, long-range category, typically offering the greatest space and highest passenger potential. In VIP layouts they commonly seat roughly 19–50 passengers (and can be configured for more), with ranges generally around 6,000–7,000 nautical miles depending on variant and fit, enabling true intercontinental missions. The Embraer Lineage 1000E is also an airliner-derived VIP aircraft, comparable in cabin volume to the BBJ/ACJ class, usually configured for about 19–40 passengers with a range around 4,600 nautical miles, making it strong for long, but not ultra-long, missions. The Cessna Citation Longitude sits in the super-midsize/business-jet category, typically carrying about 8–12 passengers with roughly 3,500 nautical miles of range for transcontinental and some transatlantic operations. The Embraer Phenom 300E is a light jet, commonly 6–9 passengers, with about 2,000 nautical miles of range. The Pilatus PC-24 is a light jet optimized for versatility and rough/short-field access, typically 6–10 passengers, with roughly 2,000 nautical miles of range.
