For a day trip from Baltimore to Charlotte or Detroit with one or two colleagues, a very light jet is usually enough aircraft.
Cessna built the Citation Mustang from 2006 to 2017. It seats 4 to 5 with a published range of 1,150 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 340 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 41,000 feet, 63 cubic feet of baggage volume and a lavatory.

Why the Cessna Citation Mustang Fits Baltimore
With 1,150 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Baltimore and destinations such as Toronto, Atlanta and Fort Lauderdale, allowing for reserves and routing. Late May is one of the busiest stretches of the year in Baltimore, with the Preakness and the Naval Academy’s Commissioning Week, so call early for those dates.
Smaller aircraft can use BWI or Martin State, and Easton Airport for St. Michaels and Oxford, with the operator confirming the airport at each end on your quote. Runway needs are calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm them with the operator before the trip is booked.
How Baltimore Clients Use the Cessna Citation Mustang
Two or three travelers with overnight bags suit a very light jet, since the baggage hold is small even with empty seats.
Share the route, how many are flying and how much they are bringing, and your advisor will say whether this type is the right fit or suggest one that is.

- 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.
