About this aircraft

The Citation CJ2+ brings Pro Line 21 and performance updates to the stretched CJ2 cabin—bridging early CJs and the later CJ3 generation.

Operators value the extra fuselage length with a more modern cockpit and improved hot/high margins versus baseline CJ2. It remains common in light-jet charter fleets.

A practical choice for light-jet travelers who want more cabin than a CJ1+ without CJ3 economics.
