Qatar Airways took first place for Preferred Business Class in the 2026 AirlineRatings.com Flyers' Choice Awards. Unlike editorial recognitions, the awards were determined entirely by votes from airline passengers. Qatar Airways secured the top spot ahead of Emirates in second place and Singapore Airlines in third place.

Qatar Airways originally unveiled the Qsuite seating concept at ITB Berlin in March 2017. As competing airlines have introduced updated premium products, Qatar Airways is now developing its cabin experience with the upcoming Qsuite Next Gen. Meanwhile, Cathay Pacific's Aria Suite ranked first among regional competitors in North East Asia in the same passenger vote.
