The Citation Longitude is a serious aircraft for serious operators. Transcontinental range, a proper cabin, and operating costs that make sense relative to what you get. The fleet is young, most owners are not selling, and the few deals that do happen are largely done privately. If you want a Longitude, you need the right connections.
Fleet Size and Availability
There is currently just 1 Citation Longitude available for sale worldwide, representing only 0.6% of the fleet.
One aircraft publicly available worldwide since January. That is not a typo. Owners are holding, and the few transactions that happen are mostly happening privately before anything hits a listing.
Market Listings
The sole aircraft currently available is being offered at an asking price of $30,000,000 and has been on the market for 219 days.
With such a young fleet, buyers focus on total time, warranty coverage, program enrollment, connectivity, and configuration. There are rarely more than a handful of alternatives at any given moment, so each aircraft gets evaluated carefully.
With one publicly listed aircraft, the data is more of a directional signal than a true market average. Read it accordingly.
Sales Activity
Over the past six months, 3 Citation Longitude aircraft have sold, including 2 off-market transactions, representing 1.9% of the fleet. Sold aircraft traded between $22,100,000 and $23,000,000.
Completed transactions averaged 401 days on market. With only three sales to average, that number can move significantly from one transaction to the next. The more important takeaway is that two of three recent deals happened off-market. This segment runs on relationships.
Key Takeaways
• Only one aircraft is currently available for sale worldwide
• Inventory represents just 0.6% of the fleet, one of the lowest availability rates in business aviation
• Three aircraft sold during the past six months, including two off-market transactions
• Limited inventory continues to support strong market positioning and pricing stability
• Off-market opportunities remain an important source of transaction activity
Key Insight
The Longitude market does not operate like a traditional listing market. One public aircraft, most deals done privately, and a sold range well below the current ask. If you are looking to buy, you need access. If you are looking to sell, pricing realistically relative to comparable transactions is what gets deals done.
