Cessna Citation X+: New York to Miami
Published Jun 20, 2026
The Textron Aviation (Cessna) Citation X+ holds a distinction no other civilian aircraft can claim: at Mach 0.935 it is the fastest civilian jet in the world. On the New York–Miami corridor that supremacy of speed translates into the swiftest passage the catalogue affords, flown from the highest of ceilings, for the traveller to whom time is the paramount consideration.
From Teterboro Airport (TEB) to Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF) it completes the route faster than any other aircraft here, a record-holding super-midsize jet of singular pace.
- 3,242 nm range
- 527 ktas cruise

The Citation X+ on the corridor
With 3,242 nautical miles of range against the route's 950, the Citation X+ flies New York to Miami nonstop with range to spare. Its Mach 0.935 cruise — the fastest of any civilian jet — sets the passage at well under two hours, the swiftest the corridor permits, and a 51,000-foot ceiling carries it higher than almost any aircraft in the catalogue.
The X+ is, in essence, a record-holder: its speed approaches that of an airliner at full throttle, and on a route flown as often as this one, the minutes it saves accumulate into a real advantage for the frequent traveller.
- Mach 0.935 cruise — the fastest civilian jet in the world
- A 51,000-foot ceiling, among the highest in the catalogue
- Range of 3,242 nm — nonstop, with reach beyond Miami
- The swiftest passage of any aircraft on the corridor
The cabin and its appointments
The cabin seats eight against a maximum of nine, in a configuration with a flat floor and an enclosed lavatory. At five feet seven inches across it is a little narrower than the widest super-midsize jets — the trade for the aircraft's extraordinary speed — but it is a comfortable and well-appointed cabin, and the brevity of the passage it affords is comfort of another kind.
How it compares within the class
The Citation X+ is the more powerful, longer-legged development of the Citation X, itself among the fastest jets ever built, and answers for outright speed where the Citation Longitude answers for quiet and width. For the business traveller to whom speed is paramount, it is without rival in the super-midsize class.
