The latest moves in Qatar Airways' expansion across Asia and the Indian sub-continent has taken off with flights from its base in Doha, capital of the State of Qatar, to Chennai and the tropical island of Bali. <\/p>\n
Qatar Airways already serves five cities across India — Delhi, Mumbai, Cochin, Trivandrum and Hyderabad — and the Indonesian capital Jakarta, so the new destinations will strengthen the airline's operations in both countries.<\/p>\n
Passenger demand for both routes is expected to be significant, according to Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer, Akbar Al Baker.<\/p>\n
\"Chennai is the third largest commercial centre in India and becomes our first service to the country's east coast. And while Bali has always been a popular tourist destination, it is also growing in significance as a place to do business,\" he said.<\/p>\n
On the Chennai route, Qatar Airways operates daily flights using an Airbus A321 with a 12 Business Class and 132 Economy Class seat configuration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
