We await with great anticipation the opportunity to host such an important global aviation event in our home country, the State of Qatar. The coming months represent a period of significant progression for Qatar Airways, with our move to Hamad International Airport and the continued expansion of our young and growing fleet of aircraft. As such, this IATA AGM represents the perfect opportunity for us to showcase the State of Qatar and its importance as a global aviation hub.”
