Set off from northern Germany to explore exciting faraway places: Qatar Airways to launch scheduled operations from Hamburg Airport on 1 July 2024. The award-winning airline will take off for its Doha hub once a day. This new service gives northern Germans access to the diverse Qatar Airways route network. The airline offers onward flights from Hamad International Airport in Doha to more than 170 destinations worldwide. Many fascinating faraway places are then even easier to reach from Hamburg. An added highlight: Qatar Airways is the first airline to deploy the Dreamliner – the Boeing 787 – on scheduled operations from Hamburg. Tickets can be booked online at www.qatarairways.com and at any travel agent from today.

“Today I can make a very special announcement in the form of the long-haul route from Hamburg to Doha. One of the largest global airlines is coming to the north, emphasising the importance of Hamburg as a tourism and business destination. I am thrilled about this new service and wish Qatar Airways a good start here in Hamburg,” says Michael Eggenschwiler, CEO of Hamburg Airport until the end of 2023.

Christian Kunsch, who takes over as CEO of Hamburg Airport from 1 January 2024, adds: “Qatar Airways will connect Hamburg Airport with one of the most important international hubs. From Doha, the Qatar Airways route network is unparalleled. For our passengers, this means that many long-haul destinations will be even easier to reach in the future, bringing great advantages in terms of convenience and flexibility. At the same time, Hamburg is easier to reach for people from all over the world, whether they are coming here on vacation, to visit friends or for a business meeting.”

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer: “As this year comes to an end, we are delighted to present our passengers with new and exciting travel opportunities for the year 2024. Starting with our inaugural flight to Hamburg, Qatar Airways and its hub, Hamad International Airport, continue to position itself on the global map as a leading gateway for international travel and connectivity. We look forward to seeing our passengers uncover new experiences and resume flying to their favourite destinations.”
