Wape Jets praises range and cabin of CJ4 Gen2
The CJ4 Gen2's maximum capacity of eight passengers, range of 4,010 km, speed of 835 km/h and the large luggage compartment with a capacity of up to 472 kgs can provide comfortable and flexible transfers.
Zuzana Petakova is pleased to have partnered with Textron once more.

Wape Jets, a Czech private aviation company, recently displayed a Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen2 private jet from Textron Aviation at Vaclav Havel airport in Prague. This latest addition to the light jet category can accommodate up to eight passengers, flying them directly from Prague to destinations such as Portugal and Turkey. It was presented as part of a sales demonstration for VIP clients.

The Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen2 has a wide range of uses for business and leisure trips, whether for a family with children or a group of friends. The maximum capacity of eight passengers, range of 4,010 km, speed of 835 km/h and the large luggage compartment with a capacity of up to 472 kgs provide comfortable and flexible transfers to any destination. In addition, clients will welcome the aircraft’s low operating costs.

Seated in comfort, passengers may use high-speed internet during a flight, facilitating reliable online contact high above the clouds. The wireless connection allows connection with family and friends or for processing business-related emails.

With the new system, passengers can also wirelessly control the cabin lighting, window shades and temperature, all from their mobile devices. Each seat provides USB ports for charging devices. The aircraft is also equipped with the Fresh Air system, which keeps the air in the cabin clean throughout the flight.

“I am very pleased that Textron Aviation has once again chosen Wape Jets as its partner, and we were able to present another of the private aircraft in the Czech Republic that our clients will appreciate,” says Zuzana Petakova, founder of Wape Jets. “I believe that this type will be used a lot by clients, with regard to its operating costs, cabin size and especially the range.”
