Qatar Airways Expands Outreach to Asian Countries

Qatar Airways is continuing its expansion in Asia by adding a   flight to Bangkok, providing its passengers even more flexibility in visiting the Thai capital.

The new service to Bangkok, which commences on 25 March, is part of the award-winning airline’s continued expansion in Southeast Asia, following its launch of direct service to Thailand’s Chiang Mai late last year. The airline is also preparing to launch direct service to the Thai city of Pattaya later this month, as well as service to Penang, Malaysia in February, Travel Daily News reported.

Qatar Airways currently operates 14 times per week to Phuket, daily to Krabi and four times per week to Chiang Mai. The additional service to Bangkok will take the number of weekly flights to the Thai capital to 42.

Qatar’s national flag carrier has won major awards in 2017, including "Best Airline in the Middle East", "World’s Best Business Class" and "World’s Best First Class Airline Lounge".

Qatar Airways operates a fleet of more than 200 aircraft to a network of more than 150 key business and leisure destinations across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, North America and South America.

The airline is launching a host of exciting new destinations in 2018, including Penang in Malaysia, Canberra in Australia and Cardiff in the UK, to name just a few.
