Qatar Airways will suspend its scheduled flights to and from the Seychelles on 1 September 2013 and until further notice.
The last of the daily services operating between the airline’s Doha hub and Seychelles International Airport on Mahe Island, will be on 31 August 2013.
Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer, Akbar Al Baker, said, “I would like to take this opportunity to thank the government of the Republic of Seychelles, the local business and tourism industry, our travel trade partners in the Seychelles and countries around the world for supporting what was a hugely popular destination for Qatar Airways since we launched the route back in 2004. Unfortunately we have taken the decision to suspend the route due to commercial reasons”
The airline said that all efforts are being made to ensure travel agents, tour operators and individual travellers who have made bookings on the affected route, are re-protected on other airlines or given a full refund.
