Cessna Citation Cj3 vs Cessna Citation Cj4 vs Cessna Citation M2 vs Embraer Phenom 300e vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Cessna Citation M2 is the smallest option here, best viewed as a light jet for shorter regional trips, typically carrying about 4–6 passengers with range around 1,500 nm. Moving up, the Cessna Citation CJ3+ is a light jet with more cabin and capability, commonly seating about 6–9, with roughly 2,000 nm of range. The Embraer Phenom 300E sits at the top of the light-jet class, often configured for about 6–9 passengers, and typically offers the longest range among the light jets listed at about 2,000–2,200 nm. The Cessna Citation CJ4 is often described as a “light-plus” jet, bridging toward midsize capability; it usually carries about 7–10 passengers and reaches roughly 2,100–2,200 nm. The Pilatus PC-24 is a “super versatile jet” often grouped as light or light-midsize, usually seating about 6–10, with range around 2,000 nm and an emphasis on operational flexibility (including more rugged runway capability) rather than maximum speed or range alone.
