Qatar Airways has announced a limited flight schedule to Hamad International Airport on 9 March, following temporary authorisation from the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority. This comes as Qatari airspace remains closed, with operations set to fully resume only after the airspace is declared safe by authorities.
The airline will operate flights from Amsterdam, Berlin, Frankfurt, London, Zurich, and Muscat, but only for passengers whose final destination is Doha. Qatar Airways emphasises that these flights do not indicate a full resumption of regular commercial operations. Passengers are advised to ensure they have a valid confirmed ticket before arriving at the airport.
On 8 March, Qatar Airways conducted repatriation flights from Doha to the same European destinations, prioritising stranded passengers with families, the elderly, and those with urgent medical needs. Each flight was pre-allocated to affected passengers by the airline.
Qatar Airways has expressed its commitment to passenger safety and apologised for the inconvenience caused by the situation, which is beyond its control. The airline plans to provide further updates on 9 March regarding the status of flight operations
