Cessna Citation XLS for Lease

The Cessna Citation XLS is a super light business jet available for lease, combining the performance of a mid-size jet with the efficiency and accessibility of a light jet. As one of the most popular jets in its class, the Citation XLS is powered by twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545B engines, allowing it to cruise at 441 knots (817 km/h) with an impressive range of 2,100 nautical miles (3,889 km)—making it ideal for regional and transcontinental flights across the U.S., Europe, the Caribbean, and the Middle East. Its spacious stand-up cabin comfortably accommodates up to nine passengers, featuring wide, fully reclining leather seats, ample legroom, a refreshment center, a fully enclosed lavatory, and a quiet pressurized cabin for maximum comfort during flights. Equipped with Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics, the XLS offers advanced flight safety and smooth operations. With a maximum cruising altitude of 45,000 feet, the aircraft flies above most weather conditions for a smoother and more efficient travel experience. Additionally, the Citation XLS boasts superior short-runway performance, allowing access to smaller, more convenient airports closer to passengers’ final destinations. Leasing a Citation XLS provides the luxury, speed, and flexibility of private aviation without the financial commitments of ownership, making it an excellent choice for executives, entrepreneurs, and high-net-worth individuals seeking a versatile, high-performance private jet for business and leisure travel.

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.

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.
