Qatar Airways Expands Flights to US

Qatar Airways isn’t letting COVID-19 hold them down.

While the current pandemic has greatly reduced the demand for air travel, Qatar has remained the only Gulf carrier to continue flying to the U.S., with flights to both Chicago and Dallas-Fort Worth maintained.

Now, through their partnership with American Airlines and JetBlue, Qatar is relaunching four routes to the U.S., bringing their total to six.
