In a relatively short
time, Qatar Airways has grown to more than 140 destinations worldwide, offering
unmatched levels of service excellence that have helped excel the award-winning
carrier to become best in the world.
Voted Airline of the Year
2011 and in 2012 in the prestigious Skytrax industry audit, Qatar Airways has
won the confidence of the travelling public.
Travel by air has reached
the point where it is now taken for granted in all corners of the globe. With a
larger number of passengers and more choice available in the skies today,
airlines looking to maintain or grow their position in the marketplace must
provide high-quality service with ever-increasing efficiency.
In this highly
competitive environment, Qatar Airways has achieved much with our phenomenal
route expansion averaging 30% growth year to year and flying one of the most
modern fleet of 134 aircraft in the skies today. Our global network currently
spans key business and leisure destinations across Europe, Middle East, Africa,
Asia Pacific, North America and South America, with scheduled flights operating
to and from our hub in Doha, capital of the State of Qatar.
Since the airline’s
relaunch in 1997, Qatar Airways has earned many awards and accolades, becoming
one of an elite group of airlines worldwide to have been awarded a 5-Star
rating by Skytrax.
I am delighted to say
that Qatar Airways has achieved our main goal to be the best in the world and
reach the pinnacle of the airline industry for outstanding in-flight service,
superior onboard products, and operational excellence – a proud honour for me
as Group CEO, for my workforce, and for my country.
Part of this excellence
is offering you a 5-Star travel experience online at the newly-relaunched
qatarairways.com where you can book flights and search for information on the
airline.
The new site also
features the highest levels of price transparency, a new flight deals section,
and an easier navigation tool to find the information at your fingertips.
Whether you're just beginning to plan your trip online or collecting your
baggage after your return journey, you can expect a great experience all the
way with Qatar Airways.
We always aim to excel in
everything we do and to be considered best in the world is a tremendous
achievement in our young history.
We look forward to
welcoming you onboard.
Thank you.
Akbar Al Baker
Group CEO Qatar Airways
