Qatar Gives Renewed Confidence Boost To UK

Qatar Airways has increased its flight frequency out of Manchester Airport to three flights per day in another show of confidence in the UK market.

Its route launched in April 2003 and went double-daily in February 2011. The move to triple daily flights will see an increase in route capacity of approximately 35%.

Introducing triple daily services will give passengers greater choice to travel onto a wide range of flights operated by Qatar Airways, the most popular of which from Manchester include Bangkok, Thailand; Perth, Australia; Bali, Indonesia; Male, Maldives and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Gary Kershaw, Qatar Airways Country Manager for UK & Ireland, said: “Since launching in 2011, Manchester has performed exceptionally well, proving to be one of our most successful UK routes. The demand from our customers meant it was only a matter of time before we increased our flight frequency, and we are delighted to offer passengers increased choice and flexibility with the launch of our triple daily flights from the airport.”

Julian Carr, Aviation Director at Manchester Airport, said: “Qatar Airways….are hugely popular with our passengers thanks to their modern fleet, superb onboard product and the number of connections they offer through Doha.”
