Qatar Airways officially began operating a daily direct scheduled service from Edinburgh Airport to Doha’s Hamad International Airport on 01 May 2015. This marks a year since the successful launch of the original five services per week, with the additional frequencies reinforcing Qatar Airways’ commitment to Scotland.
The daily QR028 outbound service and QR027 inbound service, operated by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, gives passengers even greater access to more than 140 worldwide destinations served by Qatar Airways through its state-of-the-art hub, Hamad International Airport.
Travelling from Edinburgh, the route has allowed enhanced travel times from the Scottish capital to destinations around the world with just one smooth international transfer through Doha’s Hamad International Airport, without the need for any domestic transfers within the UK.
