Magellan adds light and heavy options to card programme
The Cessna CJ3/4 combines power, speed and flexibility in a light jet, while the Challenger 604 and 605 can handle long-leg coast-to-coast trips for Magellan card customers.
The Challenger 604 can accommodate up to 10 passengers in comfort.

Boston, Massachusetts-based private aviation provider Magellan Jets has added two new aircraft options to its customisable jet card programme: the Cessna CJ3/4, a flexible light jet with great power and fuel economy, and the Challenger 604/605, a long range heavy jet offers speed and efficiency. The addition of these aircraft gives Magellan's jet card owners more flexibility and consistency in personalising their cards. Both jets are brokered by Magellan.

“We see our customers want a more consistent experience, with newer and nicer aircraft,” Magellan Jets president Anthony Tivnan says. “These upgrades give them that consistency with a portfolio of the newest, highest-quality, most reliable and most popular aircraft, and the ones they have told us they want.”

The Cessna CJ3/4 option combines power, speed and flexibility in a cost-effective light business jet. It is a choice for those who want to lower operating costs while maintaining high performance on light jet trips, like a short hop with friends or transporting business travellers to an important board meeting a few states over. Magellan's guests will enjoy the CJ3/4's enhanced fuel economy and efficiency without sacrificing comfort. Six passengers can travel in the jet's reclining executive seats, and low noise levels, while multiple outlets and folding work tables mean they can remain productive while in the air.

The Challenger 604 and 605 are long range, heavy business jets that can handle long-leg coast-to-coast or international trips with efficiency, sophistication and comfort, and with no stops in between. They feature large cabin spaces and luxurious amenities, meaning the 10 passengers will make the most of their time on their flight. It is an option for those thinking of a long-awaited trip to reunite with their extended family or needing to bring their entire team on a long-leg business trip.
