Qatar Airways to launch leisure flights to Chiang Mai, Thailand

Qatar Airways has announced it will launch flights to Chiang Mai, its fourth destination in Thailand, as it expands to meet increased demand for Thai destinations from holidaymakers.

The new route comes in addition to existing services to the Thai capital Bangkok, and to the top holiday destinations of Phuket and Krabi.

The new four-times weekly seasonal service will operate between Doha and Chiang Mai, using a wide-body aircraft, from December 2017 until May 2018.

Laid-back Chiang Mai offers a retreat from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok, and has been called the ‘Rose of the North’ in recognition of its calm vibe and lush setting.
