The ultimate
flying experience
for the discerning
traveller.

The Cessna Citation Ascend provides
businesses with the latest hardware and
software, including a cockpit voice and data
satellite transceiver to make satellite calls from
the cockpit, and Garmin advanced weather
detection and avoidance technology.
During the Citation Ascend’s design process,
Textron Aviation worked with a customer
advisory board of owners, pilots, mechanics
and passengers to better understand what they
seek in the ultimate aircraft experience.
This has delivered signi昀椀cant design
improvements throughout the aircraft, including
a fully customisable interior with a 昀氀at 昀氀oor,
providing new levels of legroom, comfort
and 昀氀exibility.
Not only do passengers get the chance to
stretch their legs and move comfortably around
the cabin, they can also select the level of
cushion 昀椀rmness they prefer, while optional seat
quilting, footrests and electronically controlled
lumbar support all contribute to the ultimate in
comfort. Customers can also wirelessly control
the cabin lighting, temperature, window shades
and onboard entertainment.

Designed with the passenger experience at the
centre, the Citation Ascend will include all-new
cabin windows that are nearly 15 percent larger
and o昀昀er more natural light. Translucent and
opaque shade settings, wireless shade control,
and optional lighted window rings will also
enhance the cabin’s illumination and mood.
Keeping customers continually connected, the
Citation Ascend will provide Wi-Fi and worldwide
calling, alongside power at every seat, with 19
standard USB charging ports throughout the
aircraft. This will ensure all crew and passengers
enjoy access to at least one charging port,
昀椀rst-in-class wireless phone charging and three
standard universal outlets.
BUILT TO LAST – WITH THE
WOR LD IN MI ND
Like all Cessna and Beechcraft turbine products,
the Citation Ascend will be able to run on
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Customers will
have the option to take delivery of their aircraft
with SAF and can refuel using SAF wherever
available, including at Textron Aviation’s
Wichita Service Center.

The Citation Ascend has also been designed to
improve upon the 560XL series’ best-in-class
maintenance intervals. Textron Aviation expects
the aircraft to o昀昀er 18-month or 800-hour
airframe maintenance intervals and 6,000 hours
between engine overhauls for customers enrolled
in the company’s PowerAdvantage programme.
This commitment to quality and convenience,
along with meeting customer needs, has translated
into strong demand, with Textron Aviation already
taking orders for the Citation Ascend.
