In collaboration with Qatar Airways, Hamad International Airport (DOH) is pleased to announce the commencement of new operations by Chinese airline Xiamen Airlines from Beijing and Xiamen, China.
There are two routes that the company operates. The first route started daily flights from Beijing Daxing International Airport (PKX) to Hamad International Airport in Doha on October 20, 2023. There are 287 seats on this Boeing 787-9 aircraft. Beginning on October 31, 2023, Xiamen will now have two weekly flights to Doha’s Hamad International Airport via the second route. The Boeing 787-9, which has 287 seats, is the aircraft currently in use.
Xiamen Airlines, which has its headquarters in Xiamen, China, was established in 1984 and is the country’s first airline to run on its own. With 3,500 to 4,000 flights per week and nearly 40 million passengers annually, the airline flies on nearly 400 domestic and international routes out of Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport, Beijing Daxing International Airport, Fuzhou Changle International Airport, and Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport.
The relaxation of travel restrictions by the Chinese government, including the lifting of the ban on Chinese group travelers for over 70 countries in August 2023, is expected to boost the return of outbound Chinese tourists, which reached 155 million in 2019. Xiamen Airlines’ new operations from Beijing Daxing International Airport and Xiamen to Hamad International Airport will play a vital role in accommodating the anticipated increase in traffic and further solidify the airport’s position as a preferred hub for Chinese tourists, supported by its extensive global network.
Hamad International Airport’s recent partnerships underscore Qatar’s commitment to enhancing its tourism offerings, aligning with Qatar’s National Vision 2030. This highlights the importance of the airport’s innovative air service development strategy, facilitating seamless establishment of routes for various airlines.
Hamad International Airport remains dedicated to transforming the aviation industry with innovative experiences, ensuring memorable journeys for all passengers.
