Qatar Airways Western Sydney flights will begin on 15 December 2027, linking the new airport with Doha three times a week, Executive Traveller<\/a> reported on Wednesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, tickets go on sale much earlier, on 19 December 2026. Later, the airline hopes to fly daily by the end of 2028, the Australian travel site said.<\/p>\n

The Qatar Airways Western Sydney route will connect travellers from Sydney\u2019s outer west and southwest with more than 170 destinations. Western Sydney International Airport<\/a> (WSI) opens to passengers on Sunday 25 October.<\/p>\n

WSI chief executive Simon Hickey said customers would reach more than 250 destinations within 14 months of opening.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe timing of the service utilises one of WSI\u2019s key competitive advantages \u2013 it\u2019s 24-hour capacity,\u201d<\/em> Hickey said.<\/p>\n

Flights through the Doha hub<\/h3>\n

Flight QR907 will leave Western Sydney at 4:10pm every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, reaching Doha at 11pm. According to Executive Traveller, passengers can then join an early-morning wave of connections to the UK, Europe, Africa and the Gulf.<\/p>\n

In the other direction, Qatar Airways Western Sydney flight QR906 will depart Doha at 1:40am. It will then land at WSI at 11:45pm every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.<\/p>\n

Qatar Airways also flies between Doha and Athens. Previously, Greek City Times followed one traveller\u2019s Qsuite journey from Sydney to Athens via Doha.<\/p>\n

The new flights will add to the airline\u2019s long-standing Sydney-Doha service. In addition, Virgin Australia told Executive Traveller it will codeshare on the Qatar Airways Western Sydney route.<\/p>\n

Qsuite business class and Starlink<\/h3>\n

Qatar Airways will fly a Boeing 777-300ER on the route, with 42 Qsuite business class seats and 312 economy seats. Also, all passengers will get free Starlink Wi-Fi, the airline said.<\/p>\n

Each Qsuite has a sliding privacy door and a seat that turns into a fully flat bed. Adjoining suites can also open up into a \u2018double\u2019 or \u2018quad\u2019, the site said.<\/p>\n

Executive Traveller said Qatar Airways is the fifth and largest international airline to sign on at the $5.3 billion airport. It joins Air New Zealand, Singapore Airlines, Fiji Airways and Vietjet.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the $16 million WSI Take-Off Fund is supporting the Qatar Airways Western Sydney flights. The airport and the NSW Government fund it jointly.<\/p>\n

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Hamad Al Khater said the route would create \u201cnew opportunities for trade, tourism and investment between Australia, Qatar and the wider world.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Earlier, in May, the federal government cleared Qatar for seven weekly WSI flights, Greek City Times reported.<\/p>\n
