Cessna Citation III for Lease

The Cessna Citation III is a high-performance mid-size business jet available for lease, offering an exceptional blend of speed, range, and cabin comfort for corporate and private travelers. Engineered for efficient, long-range travel, the Citation III is powered by twin Honeywell TFE731-3B turbofan engines, allowing it to reach a maximum cruising speed of 472 knots (874 km/h) and a range of 2,920 nautical miles (5,408 km)—making it ideal for coast-to-coast, transcontinental, and international flights with minimal fuel stops. The luxurious and spacious cabin accommodates up to eight passengers, featuring ergonomic leather seating, fold-out work tables, ample luggage space, a fully enclosed lavatory, and a refreshment center, ensuring a premium in-flight experience. The Citation III’s maximum altitude of 51,000 feet allows it to fly above commercial traffic and adverse weather, ensuring a smoother and more efficient flight. Additionally, its superior climb rate and impressive short-runway capabilities provide access to a wider range of airports, maximizing convenience for business and leisure travelers alike. Leasing a Citation III offers the benefits of private jet travel—privacy, flexibility, and efficiency—without the financial burden of ownership, making it an ideal solution for executives, entrepreneurs, and frequent flyers who need a reliable, fast, and cost-effective private jet.

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.
