Jet.AI puts pen to paper for CJ4 Gen2 trio
Jet.AI currently operates three HondaJets, one CJ4 and a King Air 350i. A new agreement for three further CJ4s comes in addition to its existing super-mid fleet expansion plan for five new Challenger 3500s.

Jet.AI has signed an agreement to purchase three Citation CJ4 Gen2 from Textron.

With deliveries scheduled for Q2, Q3 and Q4 of 2026, the new aircraft will join the Jet.AI fleet as part of a brand-new CJ4 Gen2 fractional programme. Jet.AI offers fractional jet ownership for individuals and businesses seeking flexible and convenient private aviation solutions.

“Because our customers love the Cessna Citation CJ4 we already operate we're enthusiastic about edging into more capacity in this aircraft, the largest member of Textron Aviation's legendary CJ family,” says Mike Winston, founder and chairman of Jet.AI. “Since its introduction 14 years ago, the CJ4 has been continually improved by Textron Aviation and has established a track record of reliable service. It offers existing light jet customers an excellent upgrade option to serve their travel needs.”

Fractional owners will enjoy guaranteed access to the Citation CJ4 Gen2, a nine-passenger, light jet known for its high speed, 45,000-ft flight ceiling, advanced avionics suite, quiet cabin, luxurious seating and seamless connectivity. The CJ4 Gen2 is designed for both comfort and operational efficiency, and fits fractional ownership clients who depend on private aviation for both business and personal use.
