Qatar Airways to launch flights to NY from 9 Indian cities

Hyderabad: Qatar Airways will launch flights to New York this month, offering one-stop service to passengers from nine destinations in India, a senior airline official announced yesterday.
The daily Doha-New York non-stop flight will be launched on October 26, the airline's regional manager in India Naveen Chawla said here.
"Operating via Doha, the new flights to New York JFK Airport will offer passengers one of the quickest and most convenient journeys to America's financial capital," he said.
The daily flights to New York will replace the existing six-flights-a-week to Newark Liberty International Airport via Geneva. The airlines will operate Boeing 777-300 on the new route featuring 335 seats in a two-class configuration of 42 seats in business and 293 in economy.
The airline also plans to launch flights to Houston, Texas from March 30, 2009. "This will connect America's energy capital Houston with Doha, which is the energy capital of the Middle East," he said.
