In Dubai the super midsize jet covers the ground between a regional aircraft and a heavy jet. It goes direct where a midsize would stop, and it carries a working party in a cabin that holds up on a long day. Transatlantic nonstop is still a larger aircraft, and the specification below says where the line is.
The Cessna Citation Latitude. Below are the figures, what it suits in this market, and what it costs to charter.

Why the Cessna Citation Latitude Works in Dubai
Where a super midsize jet fits a Dubai trip
Dubai has two international airports and the choice between them is a real decision rather than a formality. Dubai International Airport (OMDB/DXB) is the established field, close to the city, and private aviation uses it; the idea that private jets cannot land there is not true. Al Maktoum International Airport (OMDW/DWC), at Dubai World Central, is the newer field with more room. Which suits your trip comes down to availability on your date, the aircraft, and where you are going once you land.
Whether this aircraft suits your date, your passengers and your baggage is a performance calculation the certified operator runs against the airports at both ends, the weather and the load, and we get that in writing. Tell us where the trip actually finishes and we will tell you what can do it.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
Charter Pricing Reference
Industry hourly rates for the Cessna Citation Latitude run $6,500 to $8,500 per hour as of 7/2026. Actual quotes vary by operator, routing, positioning, and date.
What moves the number on a Dubai trip is the length of the flight and the positioning. An aircraft already in the region prices very differently from one ferried in for your departure, and on a long flight that positioning leg can be a real share of the total. Your advisor will tell you which your quote is built on.
