On May 22, the PAKS business breakfast in Indonesia took place, more than 100 travel agents attended our event. We talked about the country, the pace of sales and far-reaching (or rather, flying on the wings of Qatar Airways) plans. There was another topic without which our story about this direction would be incomplete – Stopover in Qatar.
Anton Melnikov from Visit Qatar revealed the details of the Stopover program before a vacation in Bali, Phuket, Maldives or Sri Lanka. He also spoke about the demand for routes, when 3 countries are indicated on tourist tickets – the country of departure, the country of destination and a stop in Qatar full of impressions!
- Demand leader: Qatar + Phuket
- 2nd place: Qatar + Bali
- 3rd place: Qatar + Maldives
- 4th place: Qatar + Sri Lanka
Qatar stopover in detail
Have you ever thought about how to turn a standard flight on Qatar Airways into an exotic adventure?
This is exactly the opportunity provided by Stopover in Qatar, the country of the future, where ultramodern buildings of unusual architecture coexist with authentic markets and ancient fortresses.
Imagine: after a few hours of flight, or to be precise, after a 5-hour flight from Moscow on the wings of the best airline, you land in Doha. Instead of getting bored waiting for the next flight to the amazing and attractive island of Bali (or maybe to the noisy and bright Phuket or the distant Maldives and the long-awaited Sri Lanka), you immerse yourself in the world of Arab exoticism.
In 2-3 days of stopover, you can visit the Museum of Islamic Art, walk along the Corniche, enjoy a breathtaking view of the cityscape or sunset over the Persian Gulf, take unique photos during a safari to the desert and to the inner sea of Khor al-Adaid, or you can immediately wave to the tiger sharks?
Is it worth saying that this “pause” will give you new emotions and variety?
And it’s also a chance to add one country to your travel list without extra effort.
A unique experience is available through the Qatar Airways program. By the way, according to the stopover program, you can economically live in the best hotels in Qatar.
- Standard Stopover hotels 4*
- Premium Stopover hotels 5*
- Luxury Stopover hotels 5* deluxe
In the “stop in Qatar” we recommend including top excursions – a city tour of the capital Doha and a local “roller coaster” safari along the high dunes to the inner sea of Khor al-Adaid. You will have time to relax from the Arab impressions in the second, “beach” part of your vacation.

As the well-known proverb says: “The path may be more interesting than the goal”….
