Qatar Airways To Launch Flights To Australia
Qantas Airways Ltd. faces further competition on the lucrative
Australia to Europe route with Qatar's national flag carrier expected to make its first flight into Melbourne later this year. "While we are still finalizing our schedules, commencing services to Melbourne is a key step in Qatar Airway's plans to become a major international carrier between Australia, the middle East and Europe," said Qatar Airways Chief Executive Akbar Al Baker in a statement. Late last year, Australia and Qatar finalized an air services agreement that allows Qatar Airways to operate at least three services a week to Australia. Qatar Airways has previously detailed plans to serve 60 international destinations by the end of 2005. In Asia, Qatar Airways already flies to South Korea, China, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia. ##### --multiplaza.nl.nu-- |
