Qatar Airways (QR) has announced an increase in capacity between Qatar and North Africa with its flights to Tripoli and Casablanca going non-stop, effective 01JUN. Effective 01JUN, scheduled services to Tripoli will be decoupled from the Egyptian city of Alexandria while at the same time, flights to Casablanca will be decoupled from Tunis.
Qatar Airways reintroduced scheduled services between Doha and Tripoli in February 2012 after temporarily suspending operations to the city due to the unstable political situation in Libya.
Initially, the route was served three-times-a-week, via Alexandria, and due to popular demand increased to daily services in August last year. Qatar Airways also serves Libya’s second largest city Benghazi with four flights each week directly from Doha.
