Qatar Airways recently inaugurated its direct flights between Doha and Birmingham.
The inaugural flight was greeted by a traditional water salute witnessed by a crowd of gathered media, while Qatar Airways’ chief commercial officer Dr Hugh Dunleavy, travelled on board the inaugural flight with UK ambassador to Qatar, Ajay Sharma. The officials were greeted by Birmingham Airport’s chief executive officer, Paul Kehoe.
The addition of Birmingham marks the fourth UK gateway for Qatar Airways after London Heathrow, Manchester and Edinburgh, with the eight weekly services operated by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
The airline now operates 73 flights per week to the UK, with 42 flights per week to London Heathrow, 16 to Manchester, seven to Edinburgh and eight to Birmingham, from Hamad International Airport.
