Officials and mediapersons from Qatar, India and Australia, along with travel trade professionals from Perth, are all smiles at Doha International Airport’s Premium Terminal before the departure of Qatar Airways’ inaugural flight from Doha to Chicago, the airline’s fourth USA gateway after New York, Washington and Houston. The thrice-weekly non-stop service from Doha to Chicago O’Hare is operated with Qatar Airways’ Boeing 777-300 Extended Range aircraft. The new service becomes the carrier’s 126th passenger destination.
