The airline is facilitating demand for its services for travelers from all around the globe. It continues to offer greater choice and connectivity through its Doha hub, the award-winning Hamad International Airport.
Qatar Airways will among others make history on the Doha-London route. The carrier marks up to 10 daily flights to London as its highest-ever frequency, which is complemented by British Airways’ double daily flights.
Qatar Airways Chief Commercial Officer, Mr. Thierry Antinori, said: “Qatar Airways is consistently witnessing a steady rise in demand for our 5-star services to some of the most prominent destinations in the world, most notably for London, Dublin, Cape Town, and São Paulo. This winter, in partnership with Qatar Airways, Virgin Australia will launch flights from Melbourne to Doha. That is up to three daily flights between the two cities. Qatar Airways will also restart services to Canberra, reinforcing its commitment to enhance connectivity between Australia and the world.
“The latest increase in flight frequency is testament to our continual and unmatched enhancements of experiences for our passengers travelling through the Best Airport in the Middle East – our hub, Hamad International Airport.”
