Qatar Airways upgrades private jet fleet

Qatar Executive, the elite private aviation arm of Qatar Airways, continues to redefine luxury travel for discerning clients by introducing a second all-Premium Class Airbus A319 to its prestigious charter fleet in time for Ramadan and the peak summer travel period.

With demand for premium group travel surging during Ramadan—especially among families and groups embarking on Umrah in Saudi Arabia—the addition of a second 40-seat all-Premium Airbus A319 offers a seamless, exclusive charter solution. Guests enjoy an unparalleled private jet atmosphere, award-winning hospitality, expansive cabin space, and curated gourmet cuisine crafted by renowned chefs.

Chartering the A319 for Umrah ensures an effortless and comfortable journey, starting with direct access via Qatar Executive’s private terminal and expedited, personalized immigration and customs procedures for complete peace of mind.

Purpose-built for regional routes—including Ta’if, Jeddah, and Madinah—the Airbus A319 delivers direct access to gateway cities for pilgrims continuing to Mecca. Its operational flexibility allows Qatar Executive to connect with multiple or remote destinations with minimal turnaround, all while maintaining uncompromising levels of comfort and privacy.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, shared: “We are proud to provide our esteemed clients with tailored charter travel experiences, ensuring every detail reflects the exclusivity and sophistication expected from Qatar Executive at any time and destination.”

The A319 features a refined single-aisle layout with a 2-2 seating arrangement. Each seat transforms into an expansive 79-inch fully-flat bed, adorned with premium Italian Frette linens and plush duvets. Travelers benefit from state-of-the-art amenities including universal power outlets, high-speed WiFi, GSM connectivity, USB charging ports, advanced audio options, and ambient LED lighting for a restful and productive journey.

These two A319s represent a significant enhancement to Qatar Executive’s charter fleet, setting a new benchmark for luxury group travel in the region.
