HÀ NỘI — Qatar Airways will be resuming Doha - HCM City operations from July 3.

There will be three flights from HCM City to Doha weekly every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday from July 3 to 31.

The flights will depart at 1:30am from HCM City and arrive in Doha at 5:15am.

Flights from Doha to the city will not be carrying passengers into Việt Nam until September 16.

“As the world’s largest international and trusted carrier, which has flown over 2 million people home safely and reliably during this pandemic, we are thrilled to be reinstating services to one of our most popular Asia-Pacific destinations, HCM City,” said Qatar Airways Vice President for South East Asia, Jared Lee.

“With the large number of Vietnamese diaspora in North America and Europe, where we have not stopped flying to, and with more entry restrictions being eased, we look forward to reinstating more services within the region so that families can be reunited again,” he added.

Phạm Vũ Cường, Tân Sơn Nhất International Airport acting director added: “We are pleased to be welcoming Qatar Airways back in HCM City this July. Qatar Airways has demonstrated leadership in hygiene and safety standards during this time, thus we will work closely with them to ensure a smooth and safe handling of all passengers. We look forward to supporting Qatar Airways.”

To ensure travellers can plan their travel with peace of mind, the airline has extended its booking policies to offer even more choices to its passengers.

The airline will allow unlimited date changes, and passengers can change their destination as often as they need if it is within 5,000 miles of the original destination.

It will not charge any fare differences for travel completed before December 31 this year, after which fare rules will apply. All tickets booked for travel up to December 31 will be valid for two years from the date of issuance. — VNS
