Effective October 30, Qatar Airways will increase the frequency to New York (JFK) from two to three daily flights, the airline announced on Sunday.

Offering new connections between New York and more than 80 destinations in the Middle East, Africa, South Asia and Southeast Asia, the new flights will conveniently arrive early morning and depart late evening from New York (JFK).

Customers from across the US will also benefit from the enhanced connectivity between JetBlue and Qatar Airways via New York. With three flights per day scheduled in the morning, afternoon and evening, seamless connections from Detroit, Raleigh-Durham, Orlando or Tampa, to Doha, Kathmandu, Bangkok or Johannesburg have never been easier. Members of both Loyalty Programs – Qatar Airways Privilege Club and JetBlue TrueBlue – can earn miles from each other’s expansive codeshare flights.

Qatar Airways’ strategic partnership with American Airlines also continues to expand with American Airlines launching flights from its Philadelphia hub to Doha, starting October 28. American Airlines’ new Philadelphia – Doha services will provide customers with seamless travel options and benefits by connecting to more than 90 cities across North America, the Caribbean and Central America, and to more than 80 cities across Africa, the Middle East, South Asia and Southeast Asia.

Alaska Airlines and Qatar Airways will also offer customers from the West Coast improved connectivity with significant codeshare expansion and distribution enablement. During the coming weeks, guests will be able to book more destinations beyond Doha on Alaska Airlines’ website.
