Qatar Airways has partnered with flydubai, Kuwait Airways, Oman Air, and Saudia to connect match ticket holders to Doha via Match Day Shuttle flights for 24-hour experiences during the tournament period, as part of its commitment to make the first FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 hosted in the Middle East and Arab world an all-inclusive gala event.
Fans in Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates will soon be able to book their Match Day Shuttle flights. This service is intended to connect supporters to Qatar in a seamless manner, allowing them to attend their respective matches, take in the sights and sounds of the host country, and then depart Doha the same day. Match Day Shuttle tickets will be available at extremely low costs from Dubai, Jeddah, Kuwait City, Muscat, and Riyadh on a rotational basis. Fans may learn more and book flights by visiting qatarairways.com/MatchDayShuttle and the websites of the partner airlines.
In the future, Qatar Airways will expand its Match Day Shuttle service across the GCC, as well as fly in football fans from all over the world via its enormous global network.
Passengers who purchase one of the Match Day Shuttle services can expect a pleasant travel with dedicated on-ground transportation between the airport and the stadium.
Fans who book a Match Day Shuttle flight will arrive in the morning and depart in the evening, eliminating the need for hotel accommodations. A no-check-in luggage policy will also make it easier for passengers to plan an easy-in, easy-out travel itinerary.
“Connecting fans and a shared love for football are at the heart of this game-changing partnership. We are immensely privileged to have the opportunity to unite fans from all walks of life to enjoy the beautiful game at its best, while introducing them to our hospitable culture and traditions. The FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 will be the first in the Middle East and Arab world, and we have always believed that a win for Qatar is a win for the region.”
