About the Cessna Citation Sovereign
The Cessna Citation Sovereign is the super-midsize Citation that established the class — a stand-up, flat-floor cabin jet with transcontinental range, powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306 engines. Sold as the Sovereign and the improved Sovereign+, it offers a large cabin and long range with the short-field capability and operating economics that define the Citation line. It sits alongside the larger Latitude and Longitude in the super-midsize family. See the live price range and median above for the Citation Sovereign and Sovereign+ listings currently on the market.

Buying a Used Cessna Citation Sovereign
Buying a Cessna Citation Sovereign is about the engines, maintenance programs and avionics as much as the airframe. Engine and airframe hourly-maintenance programs transfer with the aircraft and materially change both price and risk.
What to check before buying
- Engine status & program — time to overhaul/MPI and whether the engines are enrolled on an hourly maintenance program (the biggest value driver on any jet).
- Airframe program & inspections — scheduled (Doc) inspections, airframe/parts programs and total cycles.
- Avionics & mandates — a modern glass flight deck plus required mandates (ADS-B, FANS) raise value and capability.
- Damage history & logbooks — complete, gap-free records and a clean accident history protect resale.
- Pre-buy inspection — a full pre-buy at a type-authorised service centre before money changes hands.
