On Monday (July 12, 2021), Qatar Airways announced the launch of a strategic marketing partnership with Tourism Seychelles to support the tourism recovery of the idyllic summer Indian Ocean getaway. In anticipation of increasing demand, Qatar Airways will increase flight frequencies to the Seychelles from three weekly flights to daily service. The route will be operated with a state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliner configured with 22 Business Class and 232 Economy Class seats.


In Monday’s announcement, Qatar Airways Group’s Chief Executive, His Excellency, Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said,


“Home to 115 islands, countless secluded beaches, coral reefs and nature reserves, the Seychelles is the perfect getaway for those planning their first holiday since the onset of the pandemic. We know how important international visitors are to the local economy and we look forward to working closely with Tourism Seychelles to support their recovery of their tourism sector.”


The Seychelles Minister for Foreign Affairs and Tourism, Mr. Sylvestre Radegonde, added,


As one of the first international airlines to return to Seychelles skies earlier this year, we are delighted that Qatar Airways is increasing its frequency to fly daily, proof of the confidence the management of Qatar Airways shares of Seychelles as a safe destination. Our islands are a refuge, and with our tourism operators versed in operating safely, we look forward to welcoming more visitors from across the world through Doha.”


Qatar Airways is the national carrier of the state of Qatar and from mid-summer 2021 will operate over 1,200 weekly flights to more than 140 destinations, providing more flexible travel options to more global destinations than any other airline. Qatar Airways was named the ‘World’s Best Airline’ in the 2019 World Airline Awards managed by Skytrax as well as the ‘Best Airline in the Middle East’ and ‘World’s Best Business Class.’ The carrier has also been awarded the title for ‘Best Business Class Seat’ in recognition of their ground-breaking Qsuite product which offers a spacious 1-2-1 seat layout and is available on flights to more than 40 destinations including Johannesburg, Frankfurt, New York and Singapore.
