Mission profile
Where the Citation CJ1/CJ1+ fits

Four checks that decide the aircraft.
Photos, cabin plan, year, refurbishment and onboard equipment must match the aircraft actually offered.
The operating carrier confirms runway performance for temperature, elevation, payload and conditions.

Review positioning, airport costs, taxes, cancellation terms and the final operator-confirmed total before approval.

Citation CJ1/CJ1+ charter FAQ

The published figure on this guide is up to 5. The offered aircraft may use a lower-capacity configuration, so TriStar confirms the actual seating plan before booking.

The stated reference range is 1,270 miles. Real nonstop capability changes with payload, winds, reserves, temperature and airport conditions.
Is the Citation CJ1/CJ1+ the right aircraft for my route?
