Charter a Cessna Citation CJ2: Up to 6 Passengers, About 1,075 nm Nonstop
Need to take up to six people across Europe, the Middle East or Central Asia, quickly and quietly, without airline connections? The Cessna Citation CJ2 is a light jet built for exactly those short business trips: up to about 1,000 nm nonstop, from airports too small for bigger jets.
Inside, four seats face each other across folding tables, two more sit aft, and the cabin is known for low noise and a smooth ride. The CJ2 is a 5 ft stretch of the CJ1 with more speed and range, and it is an economical way to fly privately.
ICCJET finds the aircraft and the operator, checks the route and organises the trip.
Free route check. Send your route, date and number of passengers. ICCJET tells you whether the Citation CJ2 flies it nonstop, which jets fit better if it does not, and what the trip involves. No obligation.

Payload
Passengers, bags and range: the honest numbers
Every private jet trades passengers for fuel. Here is how it works on the Citation CJ2, in plain numbers.
The Citation CJ2 carries a maximum payload of about 635 kg: passengers and bags together. With full tanks, about 303 kg of payload remains, roughly 3 passengers with bags at 100 kg each. So the CJ2 suits short trips with a full cabin, or longer trips with fewer people.
Comfort
Cabin and baggage
The cabin is 4.14 m long, 1.47 m wide and 1.45 m high: comfortable seated, but not a stand-up cabin. The four club seats have folding tables that stow in the sidewalls.
Bags go in the nose and tail compartments, 2.1 m³ in total. Soft bags pack better than hard cases; tell ICCJET about skis, golf bags or large boxes when you book.
