Qatar Airways Group CEO Akbar Al Baker said: “The direct service from Doha to Auckland expands on a number of new routes announced in recent weeks and allows engers from key European markets, including the UK and Ireland, to save time with this direct connection. Business class engers onboard our flights to Auckland can also enjoy the enhanced privacy of Qsuite, which has been awarded the best business class seat in the world.”

Travelers can start booking flights from today for resumption on 1st September 2023. Those previously booked for travel after 1st September will be re-accommodated, due to their tickets being via Adelaide to Auckland.

With the largest global network in the region and the best airport in the Middle East, offering seamless and efficient connectivity to destinations around the world, Qatar Airways continues to lead the resumption of international air travel with the airline, further enhancing its network of over 160 destinations worldwide. 

Brazilian engers can take advantage of the route by taking a flight from Guarulhos, in São Paulo, with a connection in Doha, and then on to their final destination. And, with Qatar Airways, this doesn't have to be a boring fact, as it is possible to relax in the company's lounges during the wait, which have spaces ranging from semi-private rooms (Qatar Airways' Platinum Lounge) to a gym and manicure and pedicure services (Al Mourjan The Garden).

Daily flight schedule:

  • Doha (DOH) to Auckland (AKL) QR920 departs at 01:50 am and arrives at 02:45 am (+1) local time.
  • Auckland (AKL) to Doha (DOH) QR921 departs at 15:23 PM and arrives at 15:XNUMX PM local time.

From September 24th, due to Auckland's DST changes, the QR920 and QR921 will arrive and depart one hour later respectively.
