Cessna Citation CJ3
Docile, efficient, and everywhere: the CJ-series workhorse, a charter fleet staple for two decades.
Rates are the light jet class band from our estimator. A specific Cessna Citation CJ3's quote depends on its operator, age, and home base.
Between the entry CJs and the cost step to a midsize sits the CJ3, in Cessna's CitationJet series, with more cabin and range than the small Citations and the same manners. Operators fleet-buy it for the reasons pilots like flying it: forgiving handling, strong short-field performance, and maintenance economics honed over a huge installed base.
Availability is the passenger's share of that. CJ3s sit at nearly every SoCal field, so a quote comes back fast and low. Six sit in club-plus-forward seats with luggage space sized for a jet, and a party of six on a short leg should ask for it by name. Nobody stands up in it, and the aisle is the strip of carpet between the facing seats.
