"Jet City Woman" is a song by heavy metal band Queensrÿche. First appearing on their 1990 album Empire, it was released as a single in May 1991 in the US, and August 1991 in Europe.

The song talks about coming home to family after a long road trip. "Jet City" is a nickname for Seattle, the band's hometown, due to aircraft manufacturer Boeing having a presence there. It was written about Geoff Tate's second wife, who was a flight attendant. This song appeared in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock.

The eye on the single art is actor Rob Findlay.
