aTP-  Arab tourism portal- Qatar Airways launched its long-awaited, first commercial flight to Atlanta, as the airline commenced daily, non-stop service between Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL) and Hamad International Airport (DOH) in Doha.Skytrax’s reigning "Airline of the Year" marked the occasion by operating the inaugural flights with one of the airline’s super jumbo Airbus A380 aircraft.

 


The inaugural inbound and outbound flights were sold out, demonstrating the need and desire for new international service to and from Atlanta.Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, Akbar Al Baker, said: "From our very first flight, we see that our services are essential to this city, even in a major aviation hub such as Atlanta.

 


 We are broadening the horizon and giving seasoned business and leisure travellers convenient access to many new and important destinations around the world.

 


Atlanta is home to dozens of Fortune 500 companies that conduct business around the world – businesses that need the convenience only our flight, with connections in Doha, can provide." "Our vision for Qatar Airways and Hamad International has always been as a global hub, seamlessly spanning continents and facilitating world travel," continued Al Baker.

 


The first Qatar Airways departure proves the point that hundreds of passengers on the first flight from Atlanta took advantage of convenient connections to reach more than 40 destinations out of the airline’s global network of more than 150 destinations.

 

 The majority of connecting passengers flew on from Hamad International to India, Southeast Asia and African destinations, such as Nairobi, Addis Ababa, Asmara, and Khartoum.

 

Qatar Airways, the national carrier of the State of Qatar, is one of the fastest growing airlines operating one of the youngest fleets in the world.
