Cessna Citation Cj3 vs Cessna Citation Cj4 vs Cessna Citation Longitude vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Embraer Phenom 300e vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Cessna Citation CJ3+ and Embraer Phenom 300E sit in the light-jet category, typically configured for about 6–9 passengers, with ranges in the roughly 2,000–2,200 nautical mile class, making them strong for regional U.S. or short transcontinental missions with tradeoffs based on load and winds. The Cessna Citation CJ4 is a step up within the light-jet space, generally carrying about 7–10 passengers and stretching range to roughly the 2,100–2,400 nautical mile bracket. The Pilatus PC-24 is often described as a “super versatile” light jet, usually 6–10 passengers, with about a 2,000 nautical mile range class, distinguished more by runway and rough-field flexibility than pure range. The Cessna Citation Longitude moves into the super-midsize category, commonly 8–12 passengers with about 3,500 nautical miles of range for more consistent coast-to-coast capability. The Dassault Falcon 6X is a large-cabin, long-range jet, typically around 12–16 passengers with roughly 5,500 nautical miles of range, aimed at intercontinental missions and a much larger cabin experience.
