What’s the Deal with the Encore+?
If the Cessna Citation Encore was the dependable star of private jets, the Encore+ is the Hollywood sequel that actually got it right. With enhanced avionics, improved fuel efficiency, and a cabin so comfortable it might spoil you for life, the Encore+ is here to prove that “plus” truly means more.
The Cabin: Business Class? Try Boss Class
Inside the Citation Encore+, you’ll find a spacious cabin with seating for up to 8 passengers. Need to nap? Recline those plush leather seats. Want to work? Pull out the foldable tables and pretend you’re signing million-dollar deals even if you’re just doodling. The cabin’s quietness means no shouting over engine noise, unless you *really* want to make a point.
Performance: More Miles, More Smiles
Powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW535B engines, the Encore+ can cruise at 426 knots with a range of 1,700 nautical miles. Need to hop between cities or make a quick getaway? This jet’s got your back. Plus, with a service ceiling of 45,000 feet, you’ll be soaring above the weather (and the worries).
Avionics That Think for You
The Encore+ comes with the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite, which is basically the brainiac of flight systems. With its advanced navigation, reduced pilot workload, and integrated flight management, this jet is as easy to fly as it is fun to ride. (Okay, it’s not quite autopilot, but it’s close enough to feel futuristic.)
Efficiency: Small Yet Mighty
The Encore+ offers incredible operational efficiency. Its lightweight design and enhanced fuel management mean fewer stops and more time cruising. Translation? You’ll save money on fuel—and have more to spend on the things that matter, like in-flight snacks and Instagram-worthy views.
Is There a Catch?
Honestly? Not really. The Citation Encore+ might not have the range of larger jets, but for short- to medium-haul trips, it’s the perfect balance of luxury, performance, and practicality. Plus, it’s easier to operate in smaller airports, making it a favorite for business flyers who value flexibility.
