Qatar Airways prepares for huge capacity increase to Germany

Qatar Airways is preparing for huge capacity increases to Germany next month with additional flights to Frankfurt and Munich, together with the introduction of services to Stuttgart - its fourth German gateway. With two new weekly flights to Frankfurt, four additional services to Munich and the introduction of thrice-weekly flights to Stuttgart, the airline’s German frequency rises from 24 to 33 flights a week. The additional capacity will vastly improve connectivity for Qatar Airways’ passengers travelling to and from Germany via Doha. “This is by far our largest frequency increase being introduced in the German market within a short time frame,” said Qatar Airways’ chief executive officer Akbar Al Baker. “It demonstrates our commitment to Germany, with an expansion of frequency and routes to give the travelling public greater choice and more travel options across our ever-growing network of global destinations via our Doha hub. The strengthened services will foster new business and tourism links with the largest economy in the European Union.”Al Baker added that its Boeing 777 is gradually being rolled out on European routes - Madrid and selected flights to London Heathrow and, soon, Frankfurt to offer increased levels of comfort. “Our Boeing 777 distinguishes itself by its spacious cabin interior and its superior on-board entertainment,” he said. “We are delighted that our passengers travelling between Frankfurt and Doha now have the opportunity to experience our award-winning Five Star service on board this state-of-the-art aircraft.”
