Qatar Executive has become the first commercial service operator of the Gulfstream G500 jet.
The private jet charter division of Qatar Airways Group received two brand-new Gulfstream G500 executive jets last month, both of which received operations specification approval from Qatar Civil Aviation Authority, entitling them to commercially operate.
Qatar Airways Group chief executive, Akbar Al Baker, said: “Our new G500 jet will offer a remarkable flying experience to many of our loyal passengers who are already keen on experiencing this ultra-modern jet.
“With two of these technologically-advanced aircraft in our fleet already, we are excited to be receiving an additional five G500s, to offer our passengers much more of an elite choice and flexibility.”
The G500 jets are one of the fastest and most advanced aircraft types in the Qatar Executive fleet.
The state-of-the-art jet sets a new industry benchmark by offering one of the quietest cabins, as well as having the best cabin altitude pressure, allowing for unparalleled passenger comfort.
The G500 is powered by the next generation Pratt & Whitney Canada PW800 engines, optimised for high-altitude, fast and long-range jets.
In addition to being one of the most efficient jets in the industry, the aircraft’s remarkable range makes it capable of travelling non-stop from Istanbul to Cape Town; Los Angeles to London; and San Francisco to Tokyo.
The cabin contains the most advanced technology including satellite communications, high-speed internet, the Oryx One entertainment system, wireless local area network and Gulfstream’s Cabin Management System, which allows passengers to use their own personal electronic devices to control audio, video, lighting, temperature, window shades and other cabin functions.
The brand-new executive jet was first unveiled by Qatar Executive on the opening day of Farnborough International Airshow 2018.
