Qatar Airways restores network to 160 destinations this summer

Qatar Airways has stepped up the restoration of routes suspended following the outbreak of the Iran war more than three months ago.

The airline is returning to 26 destinations in key global markets as it steadily expands its network to more than 160 points this summer as an end to the conflict between the US and Iran was declared.

Flights resumed from March to more 60 destinations with a gradual rebuilding of the carrier’s schedule from its Hamad International Airport hub in Doha.

Nine cities across Europe and a further nine across the Asia Pacific region are regaining services together with the Seychelles, Marrakesh and Kigali in Rwanda.

The South American cities of Caracas and Bogota will see flights start from July 22 and a return to Philadelphia from August 1.

Boston is being reinstated to the network in North America with increased frequency during the World Cup by the tournament’s official airline partner.

More frequencies are also being added to the US host cities of Los Angeles, Miami and San Francisco.
