Which should you charter?
Pick the Citation Latitude if you need the extra 370 km (200 nm) of range, you are a group of 9, headroom matters (the cabin is 8 cm taller) and you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 0.3 m longer).
Pick the Learjet 60XR if you want the shorter flight time (it cruises 35 km/h faster).
The Learjet 60XR is estimated at $5,000/hr against $6,200/hr for the Citation Latitude, about $1,200 less per hour. Charters are billed by flight time, so the faster Learjet 60XR saves about 3 minutes per 1,000 km flown. Real quotes depend on the operator, the aircraft's age and how far it has to fly to reach you.
Example trip: the Citation Latitude can fly Dubai (DXB) to Vienna (VIE) nonstop, 4,223 km. The Learjet 60XR would need a fuel stop on that route.
Nonstop means within 90% of published range, before winds, payload and fuel reserves; the operator confirms each route.
