More than 25 million travellers transited through the Qatar hub in first half of 2024
Qatar’s Hamad International Airport has seen a 25% surge in passenger traffic in H1 2024.
The Doha hub, which was named the World’s Best Airport in the 2024 Skytrax World Airport Awards, welcomed 25.9 million passengers in the first half of the year.
Hamad International Airport expanded its network this year by welcoming new airline partners including Japan Airlines, Garuda Indonesia, China Southern Airlines and Akasa Air. These new partnerships have helped the airport drive connectivity, boosting tourism and trade relations globally.
The airport’s growth in operations is in line with a spike in traffic globally. Demand from and to the Middle East is up 45.3%, driven by the recovery of airline operations from GCC countries, specifically the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
