Qatar Airways to launch more South American routes in Summer 2025

Qatar Airways is set to expand its global network with the addition of two new South American destinations in summer 2025, meaning that they will now serve sixteen destinations overall in the Americas, as well as being is the first and only airline to offer non-stop flights from the Middle East to Colombia and the only Middle Eastern carrier operating in Venezuela.

Flights will be available for travellers to book online, and operate directly from Hamad International Airport in Doha to Bogotá El Dorado International Airport in Colombia, continuing to Caracas Simon Bolivar International Airport in Venezuela. This latest move from the Qatar Airways team marks a significant milestone for the airline, strengthening its presence in the Americas - joining routes to major cities like Dallas, Miami, New York City, São Paulo, and Toronto that they have launched previously, and enhancing traveller connectivity between the Middle East and South America for those flying for work and leisure. 

 

Flight Schedule and Route Map for 2025

Starting from the summer of 2025, flights will operate weekly, on Wednesdays and Sundays, from Doha to Bogotá before continuing to Caracas. The return flight from Caracas to Doha will be a nonstop service, streamlining travel for passengers heading back to the Middle East. 

Passengers can expect these new services to be operated by the Qatar Airways Boeing 777-200LR, a long-range aircraft known for its fuel efficiency, enhanced comfort, and state-of-the-art in-flight entertainment, with 42 Business Class seats and 234 Economy Class seats available to book each way. The flight schedule will be available via qatarairways.com shortly.

With these new routes, travellers have even more reasons to book with Qatar Airways, voted The World’s Best Airline, for an unprecedented eighth time by Skytrax in 2024. The airline has a reputation for offering a world class flying experience, with its highly regarded Business Class, Qsuite, taking another Skytrax award in 2024 - that of The World’s Best Business Class.
