For example, the all-inclusive price for 25 hours flown only in domestic transportation within the continental U.S. using a Citation V Ultra would be $136,989.41 plus applicable per passenger US-imposed taxes and fees.

For the month of November 2009, the hourly fuel variable for the Citation V Ultra was $752.58. Please check the website monthly for the most current fuel variable.
Crew and fuel included, sans a fuel "variable".
