16 September, 2022
Momentum is building behind the recovery of international aviation into Western Australia with the decision by Qatar Airways to reinstate the Airbus 380 for its daily Perth - Doha service on 6 December 2022.


Perth Airport CEO Kevin Brown said the decision to increase its capacity by more than 45 per cent is a great vote of confidence in Perth and Western Australia’s aviation sector.

“Earlier this year, Qatar Airways celebrated 10 years operating at Perth and we look forward to continuing our strong partnership and connecting Perth to Doha and beyond.

“The service gives passengers direct access to Doha and onto its global network of more than 150 business and leisure destinations globally including the UK and Europe.

Qatar Airways A380 517-seater aircraft contains a three-class configuration of eight seats in First Class, 48 seats in Business Class and 461 in Economy Class.
