Qatar Executive is introducing its Diamond Agreement, which enables customers to pre-purchase flight time at fixed hourly rates on long range and ultra long range private jets. The agreement is precisely tailored to the customer's needs and requirements, and guarantees unrivalled service on board Qatar Executive's fleet of private jets. To join the programme, customers purchase a minimum of 50 hours flight time, without any associated membership fees. The all-inclusive and fixed hourly rates cover flight hours and taxi time.

Pre-purchased Diamond Agreement hours have no minimum annual usage and no maximum carry-over. Qatar Executive's customers are also offered guaranteed availability for reservations booked from 72 hours in advance.

Group chief executive Akbar Al Baker says: “As part of Qatar Airways Group, we offer an exceptional travel experience for private jet customers. With the Diamond Agreement, we can now offer even more flexible and bespoke travel options for passengers, who can continue to expect our high levels of service and safety onboard our state-of-the-art aircraft.”

Acting executive VP Mark Hardman adds: “We are truly delighted to launch our bespoke Diamond Agreement, which is tailored to suit the exact travel profile of both corporate and private clients. The programme offers the ultimate in flexibility at a fixed price. Furthermore, we understand that as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic clients are looking for versatile, high quality services from a reputable and financially secure operator.

“During these unprecedented times, travel requirements often change and, as such, our customers can rely on us for a bespoke service with unused hours being refundable at any time.”
