Qatar revamps charter product

Qatar Airways Cargo has recently revamped its charter product to cater for an increasing demand for special consignments of anything from horses, bank notes, oversized oil and gas items to humanitarian cargo. The introduction of the QCharter product offers agents, brokers and forwarders the ability to request special loads on any of the company’s four Boeing 777 freighters or three Airbus 300-600 freighters, a spokesman explained. “One of our first clients under the newly launched QCharter was the worldfamous Cirque du Soleil acrobatic act that visited Doha during its recent world tour,” the spokesman said. The airline has been expanding its freighter product, with Johannesburg one of the destinations now served. CAPTION Expanding freighter product now serves Johannesburg.
