Aerolineas Ejecutivas signs order for up to 12 Cessna Citation business jets

Textron Aviation today announced it has entered into a purchase agreement with Aerolíneas Ejecutivas (ALE), a Mexican business aviation company, for up to 12 Cessna Citation business jets. ALE will operate the aircraft - a mix of Cessna Citation Latitude, Citation CJ3 Gen2, and Citation CJ3 Gen3 business jets - in its fractional ownership division, MexJet. ALE expects to take delivery of four aircraft, including two Citation Latitudes and two Citation CJ3 Gen2 aircraft, in 2026.

"Cessna Citation business jets are ideal for fractional customers seeking class-leading comfort and performance," said Marcelo Moreira, vice president, Sales, Latin America. "We appreciate customers like ALE, who recognize the benefits of flying a diverse fleet of Citation jets. The operating economics of Citations, along with Textron Aviation's extensive service and support network, ensures continuous productivity and enjoyment throughout the ownership experience."

Mexjet's Jetcard was the first pre-paid flight hour program launched in Mexico, and the company is a longtime Citation owner and operator with Citation Latitude and Citation CJ3+ aircraft in its fleet.
