Ateb
Atebwyd gan Deputy Minister for Climate Change
We are keen to support the reinstatement of the Doha route. The Minister for Economy recently met with Qatar Airways' Group Chief Executive alongside senior executives from Cardiff Airport and the British Embassy to discuss the resumption of the airline's Doha - Cardiff service and to reinforce the relationship which had been blossoming prior to Covid. This was all part of our efforts to restore and enhance business connectivity to Wales.
The route is currently suspended due to the impact of COVID-19. The air link between Doha and Cardiff is a commercial arrangement between Cardiff Airport and Qatar Airways.
