DOHA, Qatar – Qatar Airways is pleased to announce it has signed an interline agreement with Air Tanzania, providing passengers with additional seamless connections to domestic and international destinations in Africa. This agreement will also enable passengers in Africa to travel smoothly between Africa and Doha and onward to destinations across Qatar Airways wide network in Asia Pacific, America, Europe and the Middle East.
Qatar Airways’ passengers will benefit from access to 19 domestic and international destinations in Africa including Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, Kilimanjaro, Arusha, Mwanza, Bukoba, Kigoma, Tabora, Mpanda, Mbeya, Songea, Mtwara, Dodoma, Iringa, Bujumbura, Entebbe, Harare, Lusaka, Hahaya.
Qatar Airways Vice-President, Africa Mr. Hendrik Du Preez said: “We are delighted to have this new collaboration with the national carrier of Tanzania. This agreement with Air Tanzania will significantly increase our operations within Tanzania and beyond enabling global travellers to explore additional iconic destinations across the continent while reinforcing our commitment to tourism in Africa.”
Air Tanzania Company Limited Managing Director and CEO, Eng. Ladislaus Matindi said;” This partnership is going to strengthen and expand our market presence and competitive ability to both of us within Africa and beyond, as well as creating the values which we were looking at before establishing this venture. ATCL aspires to be the airline of choice, that exceeds customers’ expectations and providing reliable, safe, and sustainable high-quality airline services globally.”
Qatar Airways has established a strong relationship with Tanzania over the years as it began its scheduled services to Dar es Salaam from 10 January 2007 followed by Kilimanjaro on 25 July 2012 and Zanzibar on 1 July 2015 with daily flights to all three stations.
Qatar Airways continues to be the leading global airline connecting passengers with the world, operating one of the youngest, most fuel-efficient and sustainable fleets to take people safely to where they need to be. Since the onset of the pandemic, the airline’s network has never fallen below 30 destinations. By mid-September, Qatar Airways’ network will expand to more than 650 weekly flights to over 85 destinations, offering passenger more flexible travel options via the Best Airport in the Middle East, Hamad International Airport.
Qatar Airways’ onboard safety measures for passengers and cabin crew include the provision of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for cabin crew and a complimentary protective kit and disposable face shields for passengers. Business Class passengers on aircraft equipped with Qsuite can enjoy the enhanced privacy this award-winning business seat provides, including sliding privacy partitions and the option to use a ‘Do Not Disturb (DND)’ indicator. Qsuite is available on flights to more than 30 destinations including Frankfurt, Kuala Lumpur, London and New York. For full details of all the measures that have been implemented onboard and in HIA, please visit qatarairways.com/safety.
To ensure travellers can plan their travel with peace of mind, the airline has extended its booking policies to offer even more choice to its passengers. The airline will allow unlimited date changes, and passengers can change their destination as often as they need if it is within 5,000 miles of the original destination. The airline will not charge any fare differences for travel completed before 31 December 2020, after which fare rules will apply. All tickets booked for travel up to 31 December 2020 will be valid for two years from the date of issuance. For full terms and conditions visit www.qatarairways.com/RelyOnUs.
Qatar Airways operations are not dependent on any specific aircraft type. The airline’s variety of modern fuel-efficient aircraft has meant it can continue flying by offering the right capacity in each market. Due to COVID-19’s impact on travel demand, the airline has taken the decision to ground its fleet of Airbus A380s as it is not commercially or environmentally justifiable to operate such a large aircraft in the current market. The airline’s fleet of 49 Airbus A350 and 30 Boeing 787 are the ideal choice for the most strategically important long-haul routes to Africa, the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific regions.
Qatar Airways’ home and hub, Hamad International Airport (HIA), has implemented stringent cleaning procedures and applied social distancing measures throughout its terminals. Passenger touchpoints are sanitized every 10-15 minutes and boarding gates and bus gate counters are cleaned after each flight. In addition, hand sanitizers are provided at immigration and security screening points. HIA was recently ranked “Third Best Airport in the World”, among 550 airports worldwide, by the SKYTRAX World Airport Awards 2020. HIA was also voted the ‘Best Airport in the Middle East’ for the sixth year in a row and ‘Best Staff Service in the Middle East’ for the fifth year in a row.
