Qatar Airways announces new plan that allows passengers to alter travel dates

Qatar Airways has launched a new commercial policy to provide customers with maximum flexibility to suit their travel plans. Passengers who have booked or will book flights for travel up to June 30 this year, will be offered the flexibility to change their travel plans.

They can alter their dates of booking or exchange their ticket for a travel voucher valid for one year. Both changes apply up to three days prior to departure.

This commercial policy has been designed to provide Qatar Airways’ passengers with peace of mind when booking flights in light of COVID-19 and its impact on global travel.

Qatar Airways group chief executive Akbar Al Bakar said, “The safety, security and good health of our passengers and employees are high priorities for us.”

As an airline, Qatar Airways maintains the highest possible hygiene standards, which include the regular disinfection of the aircraft, using products recommended by the International Air Transport Association. In addition, Qatar Airways feature the most advanced air filtration systems equipped with industrial size HEPA filters that remove 99.97% of viral and bacterial contaminants from re-circulated air.
