Qatar
Airways has 16 flights a week flying to Beijing, Shanghai
and Hong Kong. The addition of Guangzhou strengthens Qatar
Airways’ China network. Guangzhou takes the airline’s
capacity into China up to 20 flights a week. From May 1, Qatar
Airways adds a fifth weekly service to Guangzhou.
Qatar
Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said, “China
is, and will continue to be, a strategically vital part of
Qatar Airways’ expansion plans. First with Beijing,
followed by Shanghai, then Hong Kong, we are set to further
widen our presence in China by adding the southern industrial
city of Guangzhou to our rapidly growing international network.
We have gradually introduced new routes and increased capacity
into this exciting country.”
