President Donald Trump’s administration is likely to accept a luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from Qatar’s royal family, in what may be the most valuable gift ever received from a foreign government, ABC News reported Sunday.

The super luxury Boeing Co. 747-8 jumbo jet is to be used as Air Force One, the people told the network. ABC, citing people familiar with the plans, said that a gift is expected to be announced this week, when Trump visits Qatar as part of his Middle East tour.
