Qatar Airways (QA) will resume services to Venice, Italy from July 15, 2020 and increase flights to Dublin, Milan and Rome with daily services starting from June 13, 2020, the airline has announced.
The popular tourist destination and major arts and cultural centre will become the airline’s third destination in Italy to resume flights, marking a significant step in the resumption of global leisure travel.
As one of the only global airlines to have maintained a significant schedule throughout the coronavirus crisis, Qatar Airways is positioned to monitor trends in traffic flow and passenger bookings.
The airline expects the additional flights to provide further seamless connectivity via its hub, Hamad International Airport, with its Asia-Pacific destinations, in particular Australia where the airline continues to operate 21 weekly flights to Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Akbar al Baker said, “We are excited to resume services to Venice, one of the most iconic and popular tourist destinations in the world. Throughout this crisis, our focus has been on helping to take people home and transporting medical aid and essential supplies to impacted regions.
“The resumption of services to Venice is a major milestone not just for our airline but also for the global tourism industry, indicating the start of the gradual return of international leisure travel. We look forward to supporting the many businesses in Venice that rely on international tourism and expanding these flights as demand grows.
He added, “During this crisis, we have become the largest carrier flying over 50 million kilometres to repatriate over 1.8 million passengers on over 15,000 flights. This has enabled us to accumulate unrivalled experience of how to safely and reliably carry passengers during these uncertain times.”
Qatar Airways three-weekly flights to Venice will be operated by Boeing 787 Dreamliner, featuring 22 seats in Business Class and 232 Seats in Economy class.
To ensure travellers can plan their travel with peace of mind, the airline has extended its booking policies to offer even more choices to its passengers.
