Doha, Qatar: Qatar Airways will increase frequency to New York (JFK) from two to three daily flights effective October 30, 2023.

Offering new connections between New York and more than 80 destinations in the Middle-East, Africa, South Asia and Southeast Asia, the new flights will conveniently arrive early morning and depart late evening from New York (JFK).

Customers from across the US will also benefit from the enhanced connectivity between JetBlue and Qatar Airways via New York. With three flights daily scheduled in the morning, afternoon and evening, seamless connections from Detroit, Raleigh-Durham, Orlando or Tampa, to Doha, Kathmandu, Bangkok or Johannesburg have never been easier. Members of both Loyalty Programs – Qatar Airways Privilege Club and JetBlue TrueBlue – can earn miles from each other’s expansive codeshare flights.

Qatar Airways’ strategic partnership with American Airlines also continues to expand with American Airlines launching flights from its Philadelphia hub to Doha, starting October 28, 2023. American Airlines’ new Philadelphia – Doha services will provide customers with seamless travel options and benefits by connecting to more than 90 cities across North America, Caribbean and Central America, and to more than 80 cities across Africa, the Middle East, South Asia and Southeast Asia. Alaska Airlines and Qatar Airways will also offer customers from the West Coast improved connectivity with significant codeshare expansion and enable distribution. During the coming weeks, guests will be able to book to more destinations beyond Doha on Alaska Airlines’ website.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, H E Akbar Al Baker said: “We continue to offer seamless connectivity to our passengers from the US market and beyond with the support of our strategic partners. Our unwavering commitment to our longstanding US partners, American Airlines, JetBlue and Alaska Airlines is built on our mission to connect the world through our hub to our 160 destinations and more. We look forward to building more connections and uniting global passengers from across the world.”
