Qatar Airways Cargo Resumes Freighters to Bahrain

Our Bureau - : Sep 6, 2023 - : 1:47 am

Qatar Airways Cargo has resumed its freighter services to Bahrain. The services started again on Sept. 1.

In addition to the 21 weekly narrow-body passenger flights to Bahrain, Qatar Airways Cargo has launched three weekly freighter operations, adding more than 200 tonnes of weekly cargo capacity to/from Bahrain.

“We are glad to be back in Bahrain with dedicated freighters three times a week,” said Liesbeth Oudkerk, SVP Cargo Sales and Network Planning. “Bahrain is an important market for us, and having a consistent freighter service will contribute to the economic and trade growth between Qatar and Bahrain.”

The imports into Bahrain predominantly consist of general cargo, perishables like fruits, vegetables and meat, while exports from Bahrain consist of general cargo and dangerous goods. With the addition of Bahrain, Qatar Airways Cargo now serves 24 Middle Eastern destinations with freighter and passenger belly-hold flights, providing a combined weekly cargo capacity of over 4,500 tonnes to and from Middle East.

Capacity to and from Bahrain can be booked online on the cargo carrier’s Digital Lounge platform or via its third-party marketplaces.
