About this aircraft
The Citation Sovereign+ updates the Sovereign with Garmin G5000, winglets, and improved range—keeping the type's short-field reputation while modernizing the cockpit and cabin.
It bridges classic Sovereign fleets and newer Longitude buyers who still want Sovereign-style airport access. Charter operators value the combination of cabin size and field performance.
Choose Sovereign+ when Longitude inventory is scarce but you need more than an XLS.
