In a bid to strengthen its presence in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Qatar Airways will be launching an additional daily flight to Madinah from 26 October 2014. The additional flight will increase number of weekly flights on the Doha – Madinah route from seven to 14 weekly services.
The airline connects to Dammam, Riyadh, Madinah Gassim, Ta’if and Al Hofuf in the kingdom. The additional service showcases proof of the expanding consumer and business demand on this route.
Qatar Airways currently operates 79 weekly flights to Saudi Arabia which will rise to 86 flights per week with introduction of the additional flights to Madinah.
“We have been steadily growing our presence and services to Saudi Arabia,” said Qatar Airways group chief executive officer, His Excellency Akbar Al Baker. “The additional daily flight to Madinah will now bring additional connectivity for passengers connecting from Asia, the Middle East and other GCC countries.”
The new additional flights will be operated with an Airbus A320 in a two-class configuration, with 12 seats in first class and 132 in economy class.
