Qatar Executive, the private jet charter division of Qatar Airways Group, has expanded its fleet with the delivery of two new Gulfstream G700 aircraft, bringing its total fleet size to 24 aircraft.

The latest acquisitions increase Qatar Executive’s G700 fleet to six aircraft, with four additional G700s scheduled for delivery through early 2026. The operator also maintains 15 Gulfstream G650ER aircraft in its fleet, solidifying its position in the ultra-long-range private aviation segment.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer, emphasized the company’s commitment to innovation in private aviation.

“We are incredibly proud to continue growing our fleet with the groundbreaking G700, which delivers an innovative and exceptional experience for our customers,” Al-Meer said.

The G700 aircraft are known for their spacious cabin design, advanced technology integration, and improved fuel efficiency. These features align with Qatar Executive’s focus on providing luxury long-range travel options while maintaining operational efficiency.

Qatar Executive operates on a “floating fleet” concept, allowing aircraft to be repositioned globally based on customer demand. This approach helps optimize aircraft utilization and minimize repositioning flights between charter assignments.

The company’s comprehensive service portfolio extends beyond charter operations to include aircraft management, maintenance, and fixed base operator services. Operating around the clock, Qatar Executive maintains a team of aviation professionals to manage all aspects of client travel requirements.

With this fleet expansion, Qatar Executive reinforces its market position in premium private aviation services, particularly in the ultra-long-range segment where the combination of G700 and G650ER aircraft provides extensive global reach capabilities.
