Qatar Airways has launched flights from Doha to St. Petersburg. This is the company's second flight destination in Russia after Moscow. <\/p>\n
Flights have been operating daily since December 19 on a staggered schedule. On Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, departure from Doha at 07:30, arrival in St. Petersburg at 13:50. Return departure at 17:25, arrival in Doha at 23:30. On Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, departure from Doha at 15:55, arrival in St. Petersburg at 22:10. Return departure at 23:15, arrival in Doha at 05:20.<\/p>\n
The route will use an Airbus A320 aircraft (although the first flight on December 19 was made for presentation purposes by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner). The Airbus A320 seats 132 passengers - 12 lie-flat business class seats and 120 economy class seats with individual entertainment systems.<\/p>\n
The minimum ticket price to Doha is very high - about $1000 round trip. However, the lion's share of Qatar Airways passengers fly via Doha to various countries in Asia, Africa and the Pacific region, where they can count on prices one and a half to two times lower. In addition, Qatar Airways continues to sell flights from St. Petersburg via Moscow to Doha and further to the destination - they can be used if the new St. Petersburg flight is not suitable for some reason. Let us remind you that entry to Qatar for Russian citizens is now visa-free, and the flight can be used for a stopover in this country during a transfer.<\/p>\n
