Qatar to offer double-daily service from Edinburgh
Qatar Airways will increase its frequency from Edinburgh from 10 to 14 flights a week next year, the airline confirmed today.
However, the Doha-based airline didn’t confirm when the extra flights would be added, saying only that the frequency would be increased ‘in the new year’.
The airline also revealed it will become the first Gulf carrier to offer direct flights to the Greek island of Santorini on May 20, it will launch summer-only flights to Dubrovnik in Croatia on April 20, and it will add a total of 66 weekly frequencies to 20 existing destinations in its network.
Qatar Airways country manager UK & Ireland Gary Kershaw said: "Our increased frequency to double-daily flights from Edinburgh underlines our commitment to Scotland and we are delighted to offer our passengers greater opportunities to fly to Doha as well as connecting them with more than 160 destinations worldwide."
