The Cessna Citation Latitude is a midsize business jet aimed at efficient U.S. coast-to-coast and similar missions, offering roughly 2,700 nautical miles of range and typically seating about 7–9 passengers in a standard executive layout. The Cessna Citation Sovereign+ sits in the super-midsize category with longer legs and better high/hot or shorter-runway flexibility, providing about 3,200 nautical miles of range and usually accommodating around 8–10 passengers. The Cessna Citation Longitude is a larger super-midsize with a roomier cabin and more transcontinental/international flexibility, around 3,500 nautical miles of range, and commonly arranged for about 8–12 passengers. The Gulfstream G400 is a large-cabin, long-range jet positioned above the super-midsize class, designed for substantially longer nonstop missions at higher typical passenger loads; it offers about 4,200 nautical miles of range and is often configured for roughly 10–14 passengers, depending on the interior.
