Gulfstream delivers 10th G700 jet to Qatar Executive jet charter
Gulfstream Aerospace announced on Wednesday that it has delivered the 10th G700 jet to Qatar Executive.
The G700 was the final delivery of the order announced in Oct. 2019 and is Qatar's 25th Gulfstream aircraft. Gulfstream claims the jet is a key milestone in the private jet charter's growth strategy and enhances the travel experience for its passengers while expanding its capabilities.
"Qatar Executive has been a valued and respected partner for more than a decade," said Gulfstream president Mark Burns. "We were honored to have them as our international partner for the G700 launch and first delivery and appreciate their continued trust as we deliver yet another high-quality aircraft to their growing world-class fleet."
The G700 can fly 7,750 nm at Mach 0.85 and 6,650 nm at Mach 0.90. The jet has over 90 city-pair speed records. It also has a plasma-ionization air purification system and a low cabin altitude. The G700 is also outfitted with the award-winning Predictive Landing Performance System and dual head-up display featuring Gulfstream's new Combined Vision System (CVS) that unites Enhanced Flight Vision System (EFVS) and Synthetic Vision System (SVS) in a single image, increasing pilot situational awareness and opening access to more airports. Customers can choose multiple interior options, including internet connectivity packages, a circadian lighting system or a grand suite featuring a fixed bed and shower.

The aircraft was certified on Feb. 23, 2026, by Transport Canada following U.S. President Donald Trump's threat on Jan. 29 to decertify all Canadian-made aircraft and impose a 50% tariff on any aircraft imported into America until Canada certifies the U.S.-made Gulfstream G500, G600, G700 and G800 jets.
The Gulfstream G700 and G800 were approved despite concerns about de-icing that the FAA flagged. The FAA granted Gulfstream a limited-time exemption from certain fuel system icing rules for the G700 and G800 in 2024. The company has until the end of 2026 to demonstrate that the two jets can operate properly under conditions where ice may form in the fuel system. The certification enables operators to register their Gulfstream aircraft, whether commercially or privately, within Canadian airspace and will expand market access for Gulfstream.
