Qatar Airways launches Doha to Skopje, Macedonia service

QATAR Airways has started operating a non-stop service from Doha to Skopje, the capital of the Republic of Macedonia. The new route will be served four times per week with an Airbus A320 aircraft.

In addition, the commencement of air cargo service to Skopje by Qatar Airways Cargo will promote air trade growth in Macedonia by connecting the country with its major importers in northeast Asia via the airline's state-of-the-art Doha hub.



The cargo carrier's newly launched Climate Control Centre enhances its seamless cool chain solutions and offers transit services to support the exports of fruits and fresh produce out of Skopje to various destinations across its global network.



Qatar Airways group chief executive, Akbar Al Baker, said: "This summer is a busy one for Qatar Airways, as we continue our Eastern European expansion. Our new four-times weekly service to Skopje is a much-anticipated addition to our global route map."



General manager of Airport TAV Macedonia, Alp Er Tunga Ersoy, said: "It is a great pleasure for us to welcome the first Doha-Skopje flight and the entrance of Qatar Airways to the Macedonian market, as one of the most appreciated aviation brands worldwide." 



Macedonia is a centre for metal-processing, chemical, timber, textile, leather and printing industries, and is ranked as one of the Top 10 economies in the world for doing business. The launch of the award-winning airline's new route to Skopje will help Macedonian businesspeople connect with their business partners in 150 destinations around the world.
