Cessna Citation VII

Charter a Private Flight on the Cessna Citation VII

Air Charter Advisors arrange jet charter services on the Cessna CE650 Citation VII, a high-performance mid-sized business jet with room for up to 8 passengers.

Citation VII charter services

The Citation VII is an upgraded version of the Citation III, featuring the same spacious standup cabin and upgraded engine to increase payload, range, and hot & high runway performance. This version was available for just $1.65 million more than the III, and 119 built of them were built through 2000 when the Citation 680 Sovereign was announced as its eventual successor on the Citation roster.

Additional upgrades in the newer version include an expanded lavatory, refreshment center, communication/entertainment systems (DVD player, TV screens, headsets), and increased soundproofing inside the cabin for a quieter flight.

This business jet rose in popularity in 1996 after Executive Jet Aviation added 20 models to its NetJets fractional ownership program, introducing the convenience of midsize business jet travel to executives and HNWIs across the country.
