Cessna Citation Latitude vs Cessna Citation Longitude vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Embraer Legacy 650e vs Embraer Praetor 600

The Cessna Citation Latitude and Embraer Praetor 600 sit in the super-midsize category, while the Cessna Citation Longitude is typically positioned as a large-cabin aircraft, the Dassault Falcon 6X is an ultra-long-range large-cabin jet, and the Embraer Legacy 650E is a large-cabin derivative of an earlier long-range platform. In range terms, the Latitude is the shortest of this group at about 2,700 nautical miles, suited to transcontinental U.S. missions with modest reserves. The Praetor 600 stretches further to roughly 4,000 nautical miles, bridging many North Atlantic and deep South America routes. The Longitude extends to about 3,500 nautical miles, offering more cabin volume than the Latitude with intercontinental-capable legs in favorable conditions. The Legacy 650E is similar-longer at around 3,900 nautical miles, emphasizing cabin length and baggage capacity. The Falcon 6X leads the group at roughly 5,500 nautical miles for true long-haul missions. Typical passenger loads are around 6–9 for the Latitude, 8–10 for the Praetor 600 and Longitude, about 10–13 for the Legacy 650E, and roughly 12–16 for the Falcon 6X depending on layout.
