The XLS+ on the New York–Miami run
With 2,100 nautical miles of range against the route's 950, the Citation XLS+ flies New York to Miami nonstop with a full cabin and ample reserves. Its Mach 0.75 cruise makes for a flight of a little under two and a half hours, and a 45,000-foot ceiling carries it above the weather and the seaboard traffic.
The XLS+ owes its long pre-eminence to a rare combination of cabin comfort, runway flexibility, and efficiency, and it remains one of the benchmarks of the midsize-jet class.

The cabin and its appointments
The cabin seats eight against a maximum of nine, in a stand-up configuration five feet eight inches in height with a flat floor and an enclosed lavatory. With ninety cubic feet of luggage and a refreshment center, it is a thoroughly accommodating space for this trip — the first aircraft in the catalog to offer a true stand-up cabin.
How it compares within the class
The XLS+ is the modern successor to the Citation Excel, offering more range and refinement, and a step below the larger Citation Latitude in cabin width. As one of the benchmarks of the midsize-jet class, it is among the soundest choices for the corporate group that has outgrown the light jet.
