Qatar Airways Launches Doha - Dubai Shuttle

Qatar Airways has launched a Doha-Dubai Shuttle which offers flights between Doha’s Hamad International Airport and Dubai International Airport, as well as Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai.

The new service brings with it a number of enhanced services that will reduce overall travel time and increase convenience for passengers.

The shuttle service will be offered on each of the 18 daily flights between the two cities, with 14 flights to and from Dubai International Airport and 4 to and from Al Maktoum International Airport.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said, “The Doha-Dubai Shuttle caters to the needs of both business and leisure travellers, and provides them with a more convenient and time-saving option when travelling between the two cities. We are very excited to offer our passengers this fantastic new service that shows our passengers how much we appreciate them and value their time.”

Specially branded and dedicated check-in counters located at Row 5 at Hamad International Airport will be available for all passengers travelling from Doha to Dubai on the Doha-Dubai Shuttle.

Passengers who plan on checking in baggage must check in no later than one hour before their scheduled departure time.

Return flights from Dubai to Doha also require check-in of a minimum of one hour before the scheduled departure time for all passengers, including those with only hand baggage.

Passengers flying on the Qatar Airways Doha-Dubai Shuttle will be able to take advantage of fast-track immigration in Doha, allowing them to clear passport control in a minimum amount of time before proceeding to their boarding gates located in either Concourse A or B, which are no more than a seven to ten-minute walk, on average, from passport control.

Passengers buying the Doha-Dubai Shuttle tickets will also have the opportunity to amend their ticket once free-of-charge.

Moreover, members of Qatar Airways’ frequent flyer programme, Privilege Club, will receive double Qmiles when travelling on the Doha-Dubai Shuttle, until 31 July 2015.
