Cessna Citation Latitude vs Cessna Citation Longitude vs Cessna Citation M2 vs Cessna Citation Sovereign

The Cessna Citation M2 is the entry-level light jet in this group, best suited to shorter regional trips, with a typical passenger load of about 4–6 and a range around 1,550 nautical miles. The Citation Latitude moves up to the midsize category, offering a notably larger cabin for about 6–9 passengers and a range of roughly 2,700 nautical miles, making it well matched to longer domestic U.S. missions. The Citation Sovereign+ sits between midsize and super-midsize, commonly carrying about 8–10 passengers and reaching roughly 3,200 nautical miles, with strong runway performance that can be attractive for a wider mix of airports. The Citation Longitude is the largest and longest-legged here, a super-midsize jet typically configured for about 8–12 passengers and capable of about 3,500 nautical miles, aimed at comfortable coast-to-coast and some transcontinental international city pairs.
