Citation Latitude Charter from Miami to New York
Published
Step through the Citation Latitude's low electric air-stair and the first thing you notice is what is missing: the dropped-aisle trench every older midsize Citation asks you to straddle. Textron Aviation (Cessna) gave the Latitude a completely flat floor and a full six feet of standing height — a cabin drawn around people walking, not just sitting — and charter clients on the Miami–New York run noticed immediately.
It is the youngest Citation in the midsize charter fleet, certified in 2015 and still in production, so interiors run fresh and avionics current. Six to eight passengers ride the leg wheels-up to wheels-down in about 2 hours 30 minutes at up to Mach 0.80, with estimated pricing from roughly $22,000 one-way.
- 2,700 nm range
- 446 ktas cruise
- 6–8 passengers

A wide-body feel in a midsize footprint
At 6 ft 5 in across, the Latitude's fuselage is a class wider than the Excel line it complements — closer to a super-midsize cross-section than a traditional midsize one. The standard club-four-plus-two layout leaves genuine elbow room, seats convert to full-flat berths for anyone who boarded off a red-eye, and the forward wet galley handles proper catering rather than a snack drawer.
The route itself is undemanding for an aircraft with 2,700 nm of range: wheels up from Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF) or Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE), a cruise ceiling of 45,000 ft to ride above the airway traffic and most of the weather, and the ramp at Teterboro Airport (TEB) about two and a half hours later. Pressurization holds a low cabin altitude, so you land in Manhattan feeling like you took a car service, not a flight.
Luggage seldom becomes a conversation. The heated, externally accessed hold swallows 127 cu ft — a family's week of cases, golf sets for four, or the sample trunks that travel with fashion and events teams between these two cities. Nothing rides in the aisle, and nothing gets left on the ramp for a courier to chase up the coast — a small dignity that regulars on this corridor learn to price in.
- Flat floor and 6 ft cabin height — unique in the Citation midsize line
- Modern fleet: certified 2015, interiors and avionics stay current
- Fold-flat seats and a wet galley for working or resting flights
- From about $22,000 one-way, all fees included, Opa-locka to Teterboro
Where the Latitude sits in the class
Against the older Excel family, the Latitude buys you the flat floor, the wider cross-section and a newer airframe for roughly $5,000 more on this pairing. Against its own big sibling — the Sovereign+, which shares the flight deck but stretches the cabin and range — the Latitude is the corridor-optimised choice: Miami–New York never uses the Sovereign's extra legs, so you pay only for what the route rewards.
Availability is strong and improving; fractional and charter programmes ordered Latitudes in volume, and South Florida sees a steady rotation of them. We arrange FAA Part 135 Latitudes with two-pilot crews and return specific tails, interior photos and written quotes — usually within a couple of hours of your enquiry. If your dates sit inside a holiday crush, say so early — the Latitudes get claimed first.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Citation Latitude cost from Miami to New York?
Expect $22,000 to $33,000 estimated for the one-way charter, depending on date, positioning and how far ahead you book. That includes fuel, crew, landing fees and standard catering — the quote we send is the figure you pay. Weekend departures around major events carry the usual premium.
Is the Latitude cabin really flat-floored?
Yes — it was the first midsize Citation designed without the dropped aisle. You get a level walkway end to end with 6 ft of headroom, which changes how the cabin feels far more than the numbers suggest, especially moving between seats, galley and lavatory mid-flight.
How many people can fly, and how do they sit?
Charter Latitudes typically seat six to eight: a four-seat club facing across fold-out tables, plus two forward seats — nine is the certified maximum. Every seat tracks, swivels and reclines flat, so a 2.5-hour Miami–New York leg works equally well as a meeting or a nap.
How long does the Latitude take on this route?
Around 2 hours 30 minutes airborne, Opa-locka to Teterboro, cruising up to Mach 0.80 at 45,000 ft. Winter headwinds northbound can add 10–15 minutes; the southbound return often runs a few minutes quicker. Allow fifteen minutes at the FBO before departure and you still beat any airline door-to-door.
Latitude or Sovereign+ for Miami to New York?
For this route alone, the Latitude: the Sovereign+'s advantages are range (3,200 nm) and two extra seats, neither of which a 1,000 nm leg needs, and the Latitude's cabin is wider and taller. Choose the Sovereign+ when nine must travel or the itinerary continues west.
