“This is a significant step towards our continued commitment to serve the Philippines and we are very proud to be serving our passengers with safety and great connectivity. We look forward to welcoming even more travelers on board our flights,” he added.

Davao City will be the fourth destination of Qatar Airways in the Philippines, the others being Manila, Cebu, and Clark.

Also, within the airline’s extensive global network are destinations in Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas through its Doha hub, Hamad International Airport. — Justine Irish D. Tabile
