Qatar pursuing new agreements

The country has been actively pursuing new air service agreements to support the growth of Qatar Airways and to position itself as a key global hub.

Qatar’s focus on global connectivity comes as the aviation industry continues to recover from the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Doha has emerged as a growing center for international air travel, with its national airline expanding routes to Africa, Asia, and beyond.
