Doha - QNA
Qatar Airways (QA) Sunday announced the addition of Sharjah and Dubai World Central as its newest routes to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with 14 flights per week to each destination. Beginning March 1, 2014, the airline will operate twice daily to Sharjah International Airport (airport code: SHJ) and twice daily to Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport (airport code: DWC) from its hub in Doha. Commenting on additions, QA CEO Akbar Al Baker said, \"The ever increasing demand for flights to the UAE has provided the business case for expanding our services to Sharjah and Dubai World Central. The location of both airports will offer travellers alternative options to reach their final destination when flying to Dubai.\" Operating Airbus A320s on both routes, customers from Europe, Africa and the America\'s will have increased availability of flights to the UAE, while passengers from Australia, Asia and the Indian subcontinent will have convenient connection times when transiting via Doha, QA said. Sharjah is the third largest of the seven states which form the UAE and offers an impressive array of over 20 museums, several art galleries and beautifully restored heritage areas in this bustling port city. Dubai World Central (DWC), located in the Jebel Ali area of Dubai southwest of the city, is a strategic initiative of the Government of Dubai for the establishment of the world\'s first aerotropolis. Leveraging the Emirate\'s position as a leading global trade, business and aviation hub, the focus of DWC is on economic development for the region.
