Up To 30 Gulfstream Aircraft To Join Qatar Executive Fleet
Gulfstream has announced that Qatar Executive has agreed to purchase up to 30 Gulfstream aircraft as part of a Memorandum of Understanding originally announced in October of last year.
The original sale called for Qatar Executive to purchase up to 20 Gulfstream aircraft, including the all-new Gulfstream G500. The recently signed final agreement increases the purchase to 30 firm orders and options that are a combination of both of Gulfstream's new clean-sheet, wide-cabin aircraft, the G500 and G600, and the flagship G650ER.
"Gulfstream is proud to deliver on the commitment we made to Qatar Executive and forge ahead with this new relationship," said Larry Flynn, president, Gulfstream. "The increased order of Gulfstream aircraft confirms Qatar Executive's confidence in the G500, G600 and G650ER and in the world-class experience their customers will have."
Qatar Airways group chief executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said, "Qatar Executive continues to expand its operations, and the incoming addition of these new aircraft will enable us to widen the range of services available to our clients seeking bespoke and tailored travel services."
From its start in 2009, Qatar Executive has rapidly risen to become a leader in air charter services for individuals, families, businesses, corporations and governments. As part of Qatar Airways, one of the world's leading airlines, Qatar Executive's clients are assured an excellent charter experience.
