In celebration of Ramadan, Qatar Airways has announced a special offering for passengers traveling between Doha and Jeddah. From March 15 to April 10, 2024, travelers on this route will benefit from an additional 15kg of baggage allowance, at no extra charge. This initiative, aimed at reflecting the spirit of giving characteristic of the holy month, promises to make the journey for those observing Ramadan, especially those performing Umrah, more accommodating and stress-free.

The decision to provide extra baggage allowance is part of Qatar Airways' commitment to customer satisfaction and its recognition of Ramadan's significance. By easing travel restrictions, passengers can now transport essential items for their spiritual journey and gifts for loved ones more conveniently. This gesture is indicative of the airline's dedication to enhancing the travel experience during this sacred period.

Qatar Airways, a seven-time recipient of the Skytrax “World's Best Airline" award, is known for its excellence in service and hospitality. Operating 35 weekly flights to Jeddah, the airline leverages its modern fleet and the award-winning Hamad International Airport to offer unparalleled travel experiences. Its extensive network includes 10 cities in Saudi Arabia, ensuring comprehensive coverage and convenience for its passengers.

This Ramadan initiative is more than just an offer; it's a testament to Qatar Airways' understanding of its passengers' unique needs during the holy month. It underscores the airline's broader commitment to accommodating the cultural and spiritual considerations of its diverse customer base. As travelers from Doha and Jeddah prepare for their journeys, Qatar Airways invites them to experience the difference with its world-class services and unmatched offerings, making their travel during Ramadan not only easier but also more meaningful.
