The preparation for the Fifa Qatar world cup is in full swing, and UAE is taking various new measures to ensure the whole event will go on smoothly.

Qatar Opening New Airlines

  • Not long ago, it was announced that Qatar is planning to reopen the Doha Airport to attract more visitors.
  • This decision was made keeping the Fifa World Cup 2022 in mind and the heavy crowd visiting stadiums to watch matches.
  • Recently, Qatar announced they would be opening 13 New airlines at Doha International Airport.
  • These new airline services will be effective from September 15 to December 30, 2022.
  • The timeline was confirmed on the official website of Hamad International Airport.


After many years, the Qatar Airport will come back fully functional. It has been semi-active since 2014, when Hamad International Airport was nearby. So far, the authorities have not released any official statement on moving from Hamad to Doha. Still, many airlines like Kuwait's Jazeera Airways, FlyDubai, and SalamAit have started selling tickets to Doha Airport.

After the semi-active retirement in 2014, the Doha Airport was mainly used by the Qatari Royal Family and VIPs, along with some airforce.

As per reports, the arrival and departure time of the airport can handle over 2000 departing passengers per hour. There will be over 83 check-in desks with over 50 arrival immigration and immigration countered counters. To take the crowd better, the airport will also manage around 22 boarding gates.
