The Gulf carrier will reach the historic milestone on April 6 when it begins scheduled flights to the ancient Syrian city of Aleppo, a mere 14 years after the airline launched operations.
Effective March 15, customers can sign up for the promotion on qatarairways.com/100 for a chance to win free tickets to over 100 destinations. The airline has 100 pairs of economy class tickets to give away to lucky passengers.
The airline’s frequent flyer loyalty programme Privilege Club is offering members bonus Qmiles and a special discount on award tickets redeemed at qmiles.com. For Qatar Airways’ QNB co-branded credit card holders, additional bonus Qmiles are on offer.
Qatar Airways Holidays, the airline’s holiday division, is introducing an attractive Doha stop-over package at special rates giving travellers a chance to explore the sights of Qatar before continuing to their onward destinations.
The Doha-based carrier will also announce a fabulous global offer to be unveiled before the 100th destination launch. The offer will only be accessible through the airline’s website qatarairways.com.
Qatar Airways chief executive officer Akbar Al Baker said that the airline’s 100th route launch was a major milestone and the promotions were a way of saying ‘thank you’ to the travelling public.
“We are preparing to mark a great milestone of reaching 100 destinations, a remarkable achievement in the short few years we have been operating. This would not have been possible without the full support of our valued partners, be they travel agents, corporates and, of course, our leisure customers,” said Al Baker.
