Qatar Airways’ exclusive business class suite is becoming even more luxurious thanks to a new caviar service.
The airline’s business class, which is regularly rated as the best in the world, will be treated to caviar from Thursday, Qatar announced. The delicacy can be ordered as a snack or as part of a meal.
“The introduction of the Caviar service, normally only available in First Class cabins, further enhances Qatar Airways’ award-winning Business Class experience,” said Xia Cai, senior vice president of product development and design at Qatar Airways, in a statement. “We are committed to continuously improving our inflight services to raise industry standards and delight our passengers.”

The new caviar service will initially be available on 13 routes between Doha and Boston, Dallas, Hong Kong, Houston, London, Los Angeles, Melbourne, New York, Paris, Sao Paulo, Singapore, Sydney and Washington.
The major menu expansion comes as Qatar plans to launch a 2.0 version of Qsuite, complete with companion suites in the window aisles, new pivoting 4K OLED entertainment screens and a new artificial intelligence (AI)-based Digital Human cabin crew.
Currently, Qsuites feature sliding doors for privacy, center aisle suites that convert into double beds, and a la carte meals that can be ordered on request. The airline was recently named the best overall airline in the world by airline ratings organization Skytrax.
In the US, Qatar flies to several major cities, including Atlanta, Miami, Houston, New York, Dallas, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco.
In addition to Qatar, several airlines offer caviar service as part of their first-class experience, including Emirates’ first-class suites, Etihad’s exclusive “The Residence” suites and Lufthansa. Travelers can also indulge in some airport lounges, such as the Reserve Suites at the Chase Sapphire Lounge by the Club, which opened earlier this year at New York’s LaGuardia Airport.
