Qatar Airways will launch three more weekly flights from Doha to Manchester, starting 4 June 2025.
This expansion meets rising demand ahead of the busy summer travel season. Flights will operate every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, offering travellers more flexibility and choice. Qatar Airways will operate the route using its Airbus A350-1000 and Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, both known for comfort and efficiency.
Strengthening a Key UK Connection
Qatar Airways has served Manchester since 2003, making this a crucial part of its UK route network. Passengers will connect through Hamad International Airport, voted the World’s Best Airport and Best Airport Shopping by Skytrax in 2024.
Thierry Antinori, Qatar Airways’ Chief Commercial Officer, said: “Qatar Airways’ increase in flights to Manchester supports global connectivity to the Northwest of England. With these new services, we also enhance travel between the UK and Australia—two major international markets.”
