IndiGo and Qatar Airways have announced the reactivation of their strategic cooperation following the lifting of the suspension on international scheduled flights by the Indian government, said a media release.
Qatar Airways is currently operating 190 flights per week to and from 12 destinations in India, which include Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kochi, Kozhikode, Ahmedabad, Amritsar, Goa, Kolkata, and Thiruvananthapuram.
IndiGo is currently operating 154 flights per week between Doha and eight cities in India and that includes Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kochi, Kozhikode and Kannur. As part of this expanded code-share agreement, Qatar Airways will be placing its marketing code on IndiGo-operated flights between Doha and Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, starting from 25 April 2022, and Chennai, Bengaluru, Kochi, Kozhikode, starting from 9 May 2022.
Both Qatar Airways and IndiGo flights are optimally connected to Qatar Airways’ hub Hamad International Airport in Doha. This allows passengers to benefit from the airline’s entire route network, including North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia/Australia.
“The reactivation of our strategic partnership with IndiGo is another milestone in the development of aviation between the State of Qatar and India.
