Buoyed by the first European deliveries of Cessna’s new Citation XLS+ aircraft, Lufthansa Private Jet is now offering “exclusive and flexible” flight options on its own fleet of Citations–a Citation CJ1, two Citation CJ3s and two new Citation XLS+ medium-cabin jets. The charter network is currently operating an average of about 10 flights each day.

The fleet is operated by Swiss PrivateAviation, a charter/management subsidiary of Swiss International Airlines, founded in 2008. Swiss PrivateAviation is responsible for management of the Lufthansa Private Jet fleet. Within the Lufthansa Group, it has access to facilities for crew training, as well as airline security, quality processes and worldwide sales channels.
