Super midsize charter is the Bahamas category that removes the fuel stop from a coast-to-coast day. The Citation X / 10 suits a full working group or a family traveling together rather than a couple of passengers.
Cessna (Textron Aviation) introduced the Citation X / 10 in 1996. Cabins are typically fitted with a fully enclosed lavatory, though this varies by airframe and we confirm the specifics before quoting. Every Citation X / 10 we arrange flies with an operator certified under FAR Part 135, the FAA rules for on-demand, for-hire charter.

Why the Citation X / 10 Fits the Bahamas
Cabin baggage access in flight varies by airframe and is worth confirming if the leg is long.
It suits the trip where range is the constraint and the group is still under ten.
At 3,460 nautical miles published, and allowing for reserves, a Bahamas departure reaches Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles without a stop. Treat it as a planning figure. The operator confirms what the aircraft will do on your date and load.

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; reports may be provided on request.
- 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.
