A new codeshare agreement between Philippine Airlines and Qatar Airways is scheduled to go into effect on June 16, 2025. As a result of this partnership, Philippine Airlines will operate nonstop daily flights between Manila and Doha, sharing a code with Qatar Airways for all seven weekly flights. It is anticipated that this partnership will give travelers more alternatives and flexibility both within and outside of the two cities.

The new flight schedule includes daily departures from Manila at 18:50, with arrivals in Doha at 23:40. Passengers will benefit from smooth connections at Hamad International Airport, which serves as a hub for Qatar Airways’ extensive network of over 170 destinations worldwide. Flights from Doha to Manila will depart at 01:30, arriving at 16:15, making it more convenient for eastbound travelers. These direct flights offer a faster and more efficient way to travel between the two cities.

As Philippine Airlines expands its presence across the globe, we are delighted to forge new alliances that enable us to build new connections and give our business and leisure passengers more flexibility and seamless access in flying to their desired destinations.
Philippine Airlines President and Chief Operating Officer, Captain Stanley K. Ng.

For those who want to travel overseas, this collaboration not only reduces travel times but also improves connectivity. Modern amenities and smooth transfer services are hallmarks of Hamad International Airport, which will provide faster and more comfortable connections. The expanded options for nonstop flights also reduce layovers and improve the overall travel experience for passengers.

This partnership opens up a wider range of travel possibilities by connecting passengers to major cities across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and Africa. Thanks to the breadth of Qatar Airways' route map, passengers can reach prominent cities like London, Paris, New York, and Dubai, as well as venture into less-traveled areas across Africa and Central Asia. The convenience of these connections makes it easier for people to travel for both business and leisure purposes.

The partnership also offers easier access to places like Istanbul, Rome, Marrakesh, and Nairobi. With fewer transfers and more direct routes, it simplifies trips to both popular and lesser-known destinations, making international travel from Manila more practical and varied.
