By the end of June, the aim is to have 80 destinations in the schedule including 23 in Europe, 4 in the Americas, 20 in Middle East/Africa and 33 in Asia-Pacific. Many cities will be served with a strong schedule with daily or more frequencies. Currently, Qatar Airways continues to operate flights to more than 30 destinations around the world. By the end of May, the airline plans to grow its network back to over 50 destinations resuming services to cities such as Manila, Amman, and Nairobi. A further number of destinations are planned to be added by the end of June.
