Qatar Airways is looking to recommence its Cardiff to Doha route in what would prove a much needed boost for Cardiff Airport. The global airline mothballed the route at the start of the pandemic three years ago.
Chief executive of Qatar Airways, Akbar Al Baker, told trade press publication Business Travel that its Cardiff route could return this year.
The airline has been asked to clarify the position and whether his reference to this year was in fact the financial year which for Qatar Airways runs from April to March. Cardiff Airport’s understanding, based on its ongoing dialogue with the airline, is that a return is planned for 2024.
