Inside, the Citation Encore features a spacious, quiet cabin designed to maximize both relaxation and productivity. With a cabin height of nearly five feet and a width of over 4.8 feet, passengers enjoy ample headroom and shoulder space for comfortable movement throughout the flight. | The standard configuration includes a club-seating arrangement for four, plus additional seats and a side-facing divan for larger groups. Premium materials, executive worktables, and large windows create a bright, refined atmosphere ideal for meetings or leisure. | A fully enclosed aft lavatory and a refreshment center are standard, while the expansive 67 cubic feet baggage compartment easily accommodates golf bags, skis, or several suitcases. Many Encores in the fleet have been refurbished with modern amenities, including Wi-Fi, in-flight entertainment, and upgraded upholstery, ensuring a tailored experience for every passenger.
