Qatar Airways will
launch service to Ireland when its inaugural flight lands in Dublin
on June 12.
“We look forward to welcoming the new
daily Doha service from June and to working closely with Qatar
Airways to promote the route,” Vincent Harrison, managing
director of Dublin Airport, said. “This service will bring extra
choice and convenience for passengers and will also add Dublin and
Ireland to Qatar’s growing global network.”
The
daily nonstop flights between Doha and Ireland’s capital will be
serviced by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, which has 254 seats, including
business class seats that recline into fully flat beds.
“Qatar
Airways has seen unprecedented growth in recent times and continues
to launch new destinations on our global route map, enhancing
connectivity for our passengers from around the world,” Akbar Al
Baker, chief executive of Qatar Airways Group, said. “The launch
of flights to Dublin, the capital of Ireland, is an exciting addition
to our network, and I am confident that business and leisure
passengers will benefit from our Boeing 787 Dreamliner service and
smooth onward connections through our home and hub, Hamad
International Airport.”
