GEORGE TOWN: Qatar Airways is studying the possibility of adding Langkawi to its list of direct flights from Doha, said its group country manager for Malaysia and Brunei, Datuk Muzamil Mohamad.
The airline has yet to set a target date to introduce the flight, he added.
“There are a lot of beautiful places in Malaysia, and being a network carrier with good connectivity via Doha, we hope to bring a lot more tourists with spending power to this country,” he said at an exclusive culinary workshop organised by Qatar Airways and conducted by Chef Wan here on Thursday.
Muzamil said that Qatar Airways’ network hub, the Hamad International Airport in Doha, added 20 new destinations in 2018, including Mombasa, Kenya; Danang, Vietnam; and Gothenburg, Sweden.
“Currently, Qatar Airways flies to over 150 destinations on six continents,” he added. -- Bernama
