Cessna Citation Longitude vs Cessna Citation M2 vs Embraer Phenom 100ev vs Embraer Praetor 600 vs Gulfstream G400

The Cessna Citation M2 and Embraer Phenom 100EV are light jets aimed at short regional missions, typically seating about four to seven passengers depending on layout. Their ranges are in the “around 1,000–1,200 nautical miles” class, making them well suited to quick, single-hop business trips rather than long cross-country flying. Stepping up, the Cessna Citation Longitude and Embraer Praetor 600 are super-midsize jets designed for longer legs and more cabin comfort. The Longitude generally accommodates about eight to twelve passengers with a range around 3,500 nautical miles, while the Praetor 600 is similar in capacity (often eight to twelve) but typically offers slightly more range, roughly 4,000 nautical miles, helping it stretch to longer nonstop city pairs. The Gulfstream G400 sits in the large-cabin, long-range category above these. It is designed for higher passenger counts (commonly around ten to fourteen) and intercontinental-capable range on the order of about 4,000+ nautical miles, prioritizing bigger cabin volume and longer nonstop missions.
