Citation II
The Cessna Citation II is a great plane for anyone who wants a taste of the delights of private jet travel. Cessna is one of the biggest names in this type of aviations and the Citation II is one of the most popular private jets around. This has been a popular choice for business people and those other lucky individuals who get to travel in style. If this is one of your dreams then you might be wondering if a Citation II would be a good choice for your business; or even for your own personal use.
How to decide if a Citation II is a Good Choice for Your Business
Even if you have the money to purchase a Citation II for your business you might still want to take some time to decide if this really is a good choice for you. These types of aircraft are notoriously expensive and even buying second hand is going to be a big investment. Here are just a few of the things you should consider.
- Do a cost-benefit analysis of how much such a purchase would cost your business and how much it will benefit you. Don't forget that you will also need to take into account running costs for your Citation II as well. It is often recommended by those who know that if you are doing more than 400 hours of flight travel per year you will likely save money by purchasing your own private jet.
- If you do decide to that you could justify the expense you will need to work out what type of private jet you need. This will depend on the number of people you want to be able to fit in a plane and the distances you intend to travel. If you want to have an air office and hold meetings in flight then a Citation II might not be the best choice.
- As well as the obvious benefits of having your own private jet, such as saving money on scheduled flights and getting to places faster, also consider the prestige benefits. This should not be downplayed because owning a jet can actually win you clients. We all want to do business with the successful players and having your own Citation II marks you out as being just that.
Why Chartering a Citation II Can Make a Lot of Sense
If you just can't justify purchasing your own Citation II you still might want to benefit from chartering one. This can give you a lot of the pleasure of your own private jet without the need to make such huge initial investment. These days it is possible to get some great deals when it comes to chartered private jets because competition is high and the downturn in the economy means that these businesses are really after your hires. If you guarantee them that you will be using their services a few times a year you might really get a great deal; just remember though, that if you are chartering too often you should again consider buying a plane.
