Qatar Airways new destination

[Rani]

I have read in the media about two recent visits to Nigeria by a Qatari delegation, including QR CEO Al-Akbar who negotiated a BASA agreement. Does anyone know how close QR is in launching flights to Lagos from its Doha hub?

Early 2006, or very late 2005 (Dec)

Are you really in a rush for a LOS layover?
Or perhaps it's to facilitate your interview with Virgin Nigeria?

I believe you guys now doing JNB. Your new time-table is a bit confusing. It looks as though you fly DOH-BAH AUH-JNB-CPT ( Cape Town). Sure this is incorrect. You obviously fly direct to JNB. How often, and truthfully, what are the loads like. EK does it twice a day from DXB and return. If you on ID90, your chances are pretty slim.

We do DOH-JNB-CPT-JNB-DOH on A332.

Loads are pretty good but can still cater for ID90s. Not for long anymore I am sure but right now its ok.

Good luck

Any chance of JNB or CPT becoming bases for QR crew in the future??

Thanks

Japan is also on the books in the next couple of months.
