Qatar Airways ... enhanced service for passengers.

Qatar Airways offers Doha-Dubai shuttle service

DUBAI, May 7, 2015

Travelling between Doha and Dubai is about to get a whole lot smoother with the introduction of Qatar Airways’ newest offering, the Doha-Dubai Shuttle.

The Doha-Dubai Shuttle will offer flights from Doha’s Hamad International Airport to Dubai International Airport, as well as Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai.

The new service brings with it a number of enhanced services that will reduce overall travel time and increase convenience for passengers, said Qatar Airways.

The shuttle service will be offered on each of the 18 daily flights between the two cities, with 14 flights to and from Dubai International Airport and four to and from Al Maktoum International Airport.

Specially branded and dedicated check-in counters located at Row 5 at Hamad International Airport will be available for all passengers travelling from Doha to Dubai.

Passengers flying on the Qatar Airways Doha-Dubai Shuttle will also be able to take advantage of fast-track immigration in Doha, allowing them to clear passport control in a minimum amount of time before proceeding to their boarding gates located in either Concourse A or B, which are no more than a seven to 10 minute walk, on average, from passport control.

Moreover, members of Qatar Airways’ frequent flyer programme, Privilege Club, will receive double Qmiles when travelling on the Doha-Dubai Shuttle, until July 31.

Qatar Airways Group chief executive Akbar Al Baker announced the launch of the shuttle and unveiled the new brand identity of the airline’s inflight entertainment during a press conference at the Arabian Travel Market (ATM) taking place in Dubai.

Al Baker said: “The Doha-Dubai Shuttle caters to the needs of both business and leisure travellers, and provides them with a more convenient and time-saving option when travelling between the two cities. We are very excited to offer our passengers this fantastic new service that shows our passengers how much we appreciate them and value their time.”

Passengers on the Doha-Dubai Shuttle will also be able to enjoy the newly unveiled Qatar Airways inflight entertainment system. The new brand “Oryx One - Explore. Play. Share.” embraces Qatar Airways’ corporate colours and will provide passengers with a comprehensive experience of entertainment, information and connectivity.

Al Baker reiterated Qatar Airways’ ongoing commitment to the UAE market with the launch of daily flights to Ras Al Khaimah from October 1.

“We have had a well-established operation in the UAE for many years and with the launch of flights to Ras Al Khaimah, the travelling public will have even greater options with 196 weekly flights to the UAE,” he said. - TradeArabia News Service
