Luxaviation UK, part of the Luxaviation Group, has welcomed a Cessna Citation XLS+ to its fleet.

The XLS+ is available for charter and will be based at London Luton airport with a full-time crew, allowing for last minute requests. Delivered from the Textron Aviation service centre in Doncaster, the aircraft is one of the most recently refurbished examples of its type on the market.

MD George Galanopoulos says: “We are always looking for opportunities to add high quality aircraft to our fleet and the Citation XLS+ is a magnificent aircraft, able to reach all of Europe and North Africa from where it is based in the UK. We offer a state-of-the-art, luxury experience that our clients expect from private jet travel and this fleet addition epitomises our key values of going above and beyond.”

The jet can accommodate up to eight passengers including two crew, with a maximum range of 1,850 nm. In addition to the XLS+ and a recently-added Challenger 604, the Luxaviation UK fleet also includes eight Embraer Legacy 600/650s, four Cessna Citation Excels and four Citation Mustangs.
