Critical response

Rachel Leishman of The Mary Sue asserted, "There’s a reason the Quinjet is so iconic to fans, and … maybe it’s because we dream of a world where all our heroes are still alive and flying around on it together." Jamie Lovett of ComicBook.com referred to the Quinjet as one of "Mavel's most iconic vehicles." Comic Book Resources ranked the Quinjet 1st in their "10 Best Vehicles In The Marvel Universe" list, 8th in their "10 Most Important Vehicles In The Marvel Universe" list, 9th in their "10 Coolest Vehicles In Marvel Comics" list. Casey Haney of Screen Rant ranked the Quinjet 15th in their "16 Best Superhero Vehicles" list.

Thomas Shambler of Esquire compared the concept of the Quinjet to the proposed VTOL business jet concept Pegasus VBJ.
