Qatar Airways will launch direct five-times weekly flights to Gothenburg, Sweden starting 12 December, making it the airline’s second Swedish gateway after Stockholm, and fifth in the Nordic countries.
Five weekly flights to Gothenburg will be served with a Boeing 787-8 aircraft, featuring 22 seats in Business Class and 232 seats in Economy Class. Gothenburg, Sweden’s second-largest city offers many scenic natural attractions for visitors to enjoy, from glistening lakes and granite cliffs to picturesque fishing villages. Its Bohuslän islands, stretching up the west coast, have been named 'one of the ten great wilderness areas left in the world' and are renowned as a kayaking destination. Visitors can also visit Gothenburg’s “Universeum,” which offers a rainforest, a huge aquarium and a variety of exotic animals and plants all under one roof.
Qatar Airways launched flights to Stockholm’s Arlanda Airport in 2007. The Stockholm-Doha route, which operates 14 flights per week, is also operated by a wide-body Dreamliner 787 with 22 seats in Business Class and 232 seats in Economy Class.
Qatar Airways currently serves the Scandinavian capital cities of Oslo, Norway; Copenhagen, Denmark; Stockholm, Sweden, and Helsinki, Finland, to and from Doha’s Hamad International Airport (HIA). Alongside Helsinki’s current Boeing 787 service, the cities of Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Oslo are also served with a fleet of Dreamliner aircraft.
