Layout & Dimensions

The 2020 XLS + (C56X) belongs to the established Citation XLS line, which evolved from the original Cessna Citation Excel (Model 560XL). The XLS+ generation continued the legacy of dependable midsize jets, offering a balanced combination of speed, cabin comfort, and operational versatility.

The XLS + (C56X) can accommodate up to 9 passengers. When a flight attendant is on board, the cabin comfortably seats 8 passengers. Every flight is operated by two professional pilots, ensuring the highest standards of safety and service.

Its cabin measures 5.64 m in length (excluding the cockpit and baggage compartment), with a cabin volume of 13.05 m³, a maximum cabin height of 1.73 m, and a cabin width of 1.68 m.

Unlike many aircraft in its category, this particular Citation XLS+ is equipped with a built-in Starlink satellite internet system. Powered by SpaceX's industry-leading satellite network, Starlink provides passengers with high-speed, low-latency Wi-Fi throughout the flight. Whether you need to join video conferences, work remotely, browse the web, or stream content, you can stay connected with a reliable internet connection from takeoff to landing.

Thanks to its spacious cabin, reliable operating characteristics, and excellent short-runway capability, the XLS+ has become a preferred choice for corporations and private travelers alike when organizing important business trips and executive travel. Since 2024, an even more advanced version of this popular aircraft has been introduced: the C560 XLS+ Gen2.
