Buying Tips

  • Citation CJ series has the largest support network and lowest operating costs in the light jet segment — $1,200-$2,000/hr depending on variant.
  • Phenom 300 commands premium resale values but also has excellent dispatch reliability and the best cabin in the light jet class.
  • Learjet operating costs are 10-20% higher than CJ or Phenom — factor fuel burn (180-200 gal/hr for Learjet 45 vs 130-150 for CJ3) into your budget.
  • Engine programs (TAP, MSP, JSSI) are critical — enrolled light jets sell for 10-15% more than non-enrolled equivalents.
