Emir of Qatar Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani is one of the wealthiest people on the planet, according to Air Charter Service as reported by Business Insider. 

He is also owner of a £1.2 billion fleet used by his family. On his official trips, he is accompanied by an entourage of at least 1,000 people including family members, members of the delegation, and service staff. He even travels with limousines to be used in his destination country.

Most of his trips are completed by multiples airplanes — his delegation once arrived in Japan using 10 aircrafts.

When they travel alone, Emir or his family and higher government officials use a separate VIP airline, Qatar Amiri Flight. The VIP fleet was made up of 14 aircrafts at the end of August 2016, each exceeding £80 million.

The Emir also has access to an Airbus A319-100 (CJ), three Airbus A320-200s, two Airbus A330-200s, two Boeing 747-8 BBJs, an Airbus А310-300, an Airbus А340-200, an Airbus А340-300 and Airbus А340-500.

He also occasionally uses a business jet Bombardier Global Express BD-700-1A10 and a military transport airplane, the Boeing C-17 Globemaster III, for personal use.
