Qatar Airways is to launch flights to Amsterdam, the capital city of the Netherlands, on 16 June 2015.

The Doha – Amsterdam route will be operated with a 254-seat Boeing 787 Dreamliner with 22 fully-flat-bed seats in Business Class and 232 in Economy Class.

Amsterdam has long been on our list of destinations to introduce to our network, and we are delighted to now be adding this dynamic European city to our route map,” said Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, Akbar Al Baker.

“Qatar Airways looks forward to bringing our five-star service to The Netherlands, and providing travellers with an extensive list of destinations across the Middle East, Africa and the Far East that are easily accessible with a minimal connection time in Doha.”

A highly popular tourist destination, the Netherlands is home to 10 sites listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The city of Amsterdam contains two of them – the 17th-century canals of Amsterdam and the 19th and 20th century Defence Line of Amsterdam.

With the addition of the city of Amsterdam, the total number of European destinations covered by the airline will be 34 – which is approximately 25% of the airline’s entire route map.
