Share

Qatar Airways has announced a significant expansion of its global network, offering flights to more than 150 destinations from 16 June 2026 as part of its summer schedule.

The updated timetable, running through 15 September 2026, includes new routes and increased frequencies via its hub at Hamad International Airport, aiming to boost connectivity and provide greater flexibility for travellers during the peak season.

Flexible rebooking options

To accommodate schedule changes and ongoing operational adjustments, the airline is offering passengers additional flexibility:

  • Free date changes for travel up to 31 October 2026 (subject to availability)
  • Additional fee-free changes if flights are affected
  • Full refunds of unused tickets, with processing times of up to 28 working days

These conditions apply to bookings with travel dates between 28 February and 15 September 2026.

Operational guidance

Passengers are advised to regularly check their booking status via the airline’s website or app and ensure their contact details are up to date. The airline also emphasised that travellers should only proceed to the airport with a confirmed ticket.

The expansion reinforces Qatar Airways’ strategy of strengthening its global hub-and-spoke network, particularly during high-demand travel periods, while maintaining flexibility amid evolving operational conditions.
