Desert Jet expects Sovereign to be a top performer
The Sovereign, known for its versatility due to its short field capabilities, allows it to access runways that other super midsized aircraft cannot. It can cross the US non-stop. Desert Jet sees it as a complementary addition.
The Sovereign is available for immediate charter.

Desert Jet, a full service business aviation company based in Greater Palm Springs, California, is making its Citation Sovereign available for immediate charter. The super midsize aircraft complements Desert Jet's charter fleet of managed business jets, which also includes Bravos and CJ3s.

The Sovereign, known for its versatility due to its short field capabilities, allows it to easily access runways that other super midsized aircraft cannot, and it can cross the US non-stop. The aircraft features a stand-up cabin configured to accommodate up to nine passengers comfortably with a double club interior layout, plush leather captain seats, a fully enclosed private aft lavatory and a full refreshment centre complete with a coffee maker.

There is ample space for baggage in the jet. The interior baggage area in the Sovereign allows for copious storage of garment bags, while the exterior storage spans 100 cubic feet.

“We are excited to offer this beautiful aircraft to our customers who want the comfort and convenience of non-stop flights when travelling across the country,” says Desert Jet CEO Jared Fox. “The Citation Sovereign has everything desirable in a midsize private jet: great range, cabin size and speed. It complements our light jet charter fleet and is the ideal jet for completing long-range missions rapidly and comfortably.”
