Qatar Airways announced that its award-winning Business Class experience, Qsuite, will be available on flights to and from Canberra, its newest Australian destination, via Sydney, beginning this July.

The announcement comes less than six months after the airline launched its Canberra route earlier in February. The Doha to Canberra flight makes one stop in Sydney, bringing Sydney residents a second daily service to and from Qatar.

The route will initially be served up to four times a week, with daily Qsuite service to commence on 1 August this year.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Akbar Al Baker, said that since its launch, Qsuite has received tremendous attention globally, and they are very delighted to introduce the revolutionary product on the Canberra and Sydney routes.

With Qsuite, we have truly redefined business and luxury travel, and we are certain that the highly-adaptable and personalised product will be a much-welcome addition for Australian travellers.

Qatar Airways now offers 4,376 seats daily to and from five Australian gateways.

Since the launch of services to Australia in 2009, Qatar Airways has carried more than three million passengers on its flights to Australia, supporting its AUD40 billion international tourism industry. These services have also helped connect Australian exporters to the world via belly-cargo capacity, enabling trade between Australia and Qatar valued at AUD947 million in 2016-17.

Qsuite is currently available on select Qatar Airways Boeing 777-300ER, Airbus A350-900 and A350-1000 aircraft. The expansion to Canberra follows the introduction of the product to various destinations around the globe, including London, Paris, New York, Chicago, Houston and Shanghai.
