Qatar Executive (Arabic: القطرية لطائرات رجال الاعمال) is a business jet subsidiary of Qatar Airways, based in Doha.[1] It was launched on June 16, 2009 at the Paris Air Show.

Apart from its core business of aircraft charters, Qatar Executive's service portfolio also includes aircraft management, maintenance and a full range of fixed-base operator (FBO) services at Doha International Airport. As part of the Qatar Airways Group, Qatar Executive is also responsible for Qatar Airways Charter requests. With a new hangar opened in March 2011, Qatar Executive has entered the FBO and maintenance service for business jets coming to Doha.

In March 2012, Bombardier appointed Qatar Executive as its Authorized Service Facility for Challenger and Global aircraft in the Middle East.[2]
