Midsize Jets for Sale

How much does a midsize jet cost?

Price here depends less on the badge than on year, total time and engine programme cover. The June 2026 listings show:

• Hawker 900XP: 3 aircraft, 2008-2012, $4,395,000 to $4,400,000 (2 priced)
• Citation XLS+: 4 aircraft, 2009-2018, $6,500,000 to $6,895,000 (2 priced), one of them based in the Philippines
• Legacy 500: 2 aircraft, 2016-2017, one ask of $14,995,000
• Citation Latitude: 4 aircraft, 2016-2025, every price on request

The top published ask is more than three times the lowest, so the category label says little about budget. A late Latitude with factory warranty will not trade near an older XLS+, and we treat 'on request' as a prompt to ask for the tail-specific figure, not as a hint of a bargain. Our price guide explains how valuers weigh these factors.

Cheapest midsize jet to operate

We do not quote hourly figures without your mission and crew plan, because the answer moves with how you fly. The drivers are consistent:

• Engines. All four types are twins. The XLS+ uses Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545 engines, the Hawker 900XP Honeywell TFE731s, the Latitude PW306Ds and the Legacy 500 Honeywell HTF7500Es.
• Programme enrolment. An engine on ESP or MSP costs more per hour but turns overhaul into a predictable charge and supports resale.
• Weight and fuel. The XLS+ is the lightest airframe here and sits at the low end of the fuel-burn scale; the Latitude and Legacy 500 burn more because they carry bigger cabins further.
• Age and inspections. The Hawker 900XP has been out of production for more than a decade, so calendar inspections, corrosion work and parts lead times weigh more.

On balance, a programme-enrolled XLS+ usually sits at the lowest running cost on short Asian sectors. The Hawker wins on purchase price, not on predictability.

Midsize vs super midsize for Asian routes

Great-circle distances make the choice clearer than brochures. Singapore to Hong Kong is 1,380 nm and Mumbai to Dubai 1,040 nm, and every listed midsize covers both with reserves. Singapore to Mumbai, 2,120 nm, is just past the XLS+'s 2,100 nm, so plan a stop there, while the Latitude (2,700 nm) does it. Singapore to Tokyo at 2,860 nm is beyond the Latitude, within 3% of the Hawker 900XP's 2,930 nm and inside the Legacy 500's 3,125 nm, where winter headwinds, payload and reserves decide. Singapore to Dubai, 3,160 nm, exceeds every midsize figure. That leg is where super midsize jets such as the Praetor 600 at 4,018 nm earn their premium.
