SD Share is a partnership between SD Aviation and Groupe Dubreuil and initial deliveries are expected to begin in 2027.

“The Cessna Citation light jets will help SD Aviation serve customers with reliable travel across Europe and beyond,” said Duncan Van De Velde, vice president, Sales, Europe. “The M2 Gen3 and CJ3 Gen2 are ideal platforms for private flights, offering the performance and versatility to access a wide range of airports, the efficiency operators depend on and the comfort passengers expect.”
