Cessna Citation CJ3 for lease

The Cessna Citation CJ3 is a light business jet renowned for its efficiency and performance, accommodating up to seven passengers. For operators seeking flexible acquisition options, the CJ3 is available through both dry lease and ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) lease agreements. In a dry lease arrangement, the lessee assumes responsibility for providing the crew, maintenance, insurance, and operational control, utilizing their existing infrastructure and certifications. This option offers greater control over operations and can be tailored to specific mission requirements. Alternatively, an ACMI lease provides a comprehensive solution, including the aircraft along with crew, maintenance, and insurance services. This arrangement allows operators to focus on their core activities while the lessor manages the operational aspects of the aircraft. Lease rates for the Citation CJ3 vary based on factors such as lease duration, aircraft configuration, and operational requirements. While specific pricing is subject to negotiation, the CJ3’s advanced avionics, comfortable cabin, and reliable performance make it a valuable asset for missions ranging from corporate travel to charter services.

Wet Lease

A wet lease is a comprehensive package designed to cover all your travel needs from point A to point B. It includes fuel, maintenance costs, and, most importantly, a crew to operate the aircraft.

The term ‘ACMI charter’ is often used interchangeably with wet leasing, providing a clearer understanding of what a wet lease entails. Here’s a breakdown of the ‘ACMI’ acronym:

A stands for ‘aircraft,’ the essential component required for your journey.

C means ‘crew,’ ensuring the presence of pilots to operate the plane and typically cabin crew for in-flight service.

M refers to ‘maintenance,’ meaning that with a wet lease, you won’t have to handle or pay separately for aircraft upkeep.

I signifies ‘insurance,’ which, like car rentals, offers comprehensive coverage. This could include everything from technical issues to exchange guarantees, ensuring seamless travel if an aircraft is delayed or becomes unserviceable.

Private individuals often seek wet lease options when chartering private jets because it offers a hassle-free, all-inclusive solution for starting their journey.

Dry Lease

A dry lease is essentially the opposite of a wet lease, offering very little in terms of included services.

In ACMI terms, a dry lease only provides the ‘A’ — the aircraft itself. There’s no crew, maintenance, or insurance included.

Dry leases are commonly used by companies with their own pool of pilots, maintenance technicians, and cabin crew. If wet leasing is like hiring a limousine with a chauffeur, dry leasing is akin to renting a car without a driver.
