Qatar Airways’ first ever passenger flight to Portugal landed at Lisbon Airport on Monday 24 June 2019 and was greeted with a water cannon salute on arrival.
The new daily direct services to Lisbon will be operated by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, with 22 seats in Business Class and 232 seats in Economy Class.
The service opens up a world of connectivity for Qatar Airways customers travelling from Lisbon to destinations across Africa, Asia and Australia, such as Maputo, Hong Kong, Bali, Maldives, Bangkok, Sydney and many more.
Lisbon is the fourth new destination to be introduced by the airline this summer following the launch of flights to Izmir, Turkey, and Rabat, Morocco, in May; with Malta at the beginning of June and Davao, Philippines on 18 June; followed by Mogadishu, Somalia, on 1 July; and Langkawi, Malaysia, on 15 October.
