Travellers flying via Qatar face upheaval following a diplomatic row that has seen Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain and Egypt cut ties with the country – here’s what you can do if affected.
Qatar’s capital Doha is a major international hub for long-haul flights, so the disruption isn’t limited to Passengers Travelling to the country itself. Here’s a quick summary of how flights are affected:
- Some major airlines, including Emirates and Etihad, have cancelled all flights to and from Doha.
- Qatar Airways flights between Qatar and the other countries involved in the row have also been cancelled until further notice – this will also affect passengers travelling via Qatar from somewhere else.
- British Airways’ and Qatar Airways’ direct flights between the UK and Qatar aren’t affected.
The row centres around allegations of Qatar supporting extremist groups, which it denies.
