Qatar Airways will launch new direct flights between Hamad International Airport, Doha and Da Nang, Vietnam, starting 19 December 2018.

The beautiful coastal city of Da Nang will be the third Vietnamese destination on Qatar Airways’s rapidly expanding global network.

The four-times weekly flights will be served with a Boeing 787-8 aircraft, featuring 22 seats in Business Class and 232 seats in Economy Class.

Qatar Airways began direct services to Ho Chi Minh City in 2007, and launched its Hanoi service in 2010. Currently, the airline provides twice-daily direct flights to Vietnam’s capital city and 10 times weekly flights to Ho Chi Minh City.

In October 2017, Qatar Airways commenced partnership with Vietnamese Vietjet Air, allowing its passengers to travel to and from destinations in Vietnam not directly served by Qatar Airways.

One of the largest cities in Vietnam, Da Nang is known for its sandy beaches and remarkable history as a French colonial port. This charming city offers magnificent views of Da Nang Bay and its beautiful Marble Mountains, making it an ideal destination for a relaxing vacation.

Da Nang has seen a tremendous increase in number of visitors, with a record 6.6 million tourists in 2017, doubling the figure in 2013. In 2015, the New York Times listed Da Nang among the top 52 places to visit.

As part of its expansion plans, Qatar Airways will launch flights to a host of new destinations in 2018, including Gothenburg, Sweden; Tallinn, Estonia and Valletta, Malta etc.
