Cessna 680A Citation Latitude

The Cessna Citation Latitude is a super-midsize business jet notable for its wide, flat-floor cabin — unlike many jets of similar size, passengers can walk down the aisle without stooping. That flat floor came from a fuselage cross-section specifically designed with cabin comfort as a priority, rather than simply scaling up a smaller Citation's shape. It has become one of the best-selling jets in its class since its 2015 launch, prized for combining a roomy cabin with relatively simple, efficient operation. Its success helped establish Cessna's Latitude and Longitude as flagship models in the modern Citation lineup.
