Qatar Airways to resume Yangon service

QATAR Airways will resume service to Yangon from Doha on October 3, operating thrice-weekly flights using an Airbus A319 and A320 aircraft.

The airline will extend the service to daily from October 28 and will use a B777 aircraft in future if there is increased demand.

Under a bilateral agreement, the carrier can fly 14 times a week between the two countries.

An industry source said the resumption would enhance access between Myanmar and Europe, Africa and the Middle East

Qatar signed a bilateral agreement with Myanmar in 2004 to start operating a Doha-Yangon-Doha flight four times a week from January 2005. The service was halted in January 2008.
