Qatar nonstop flights from Houston to Middle East

Qatar Airways last night celebrated the launch of scheduled flights from Middle East to Houston with its new daily non-stop service

With a flying time under 17 hours, this clearly is the longest flight in Qatar Airways’ route network and one of the longest non-stop services in the world using our two state-of-the-art Boeing 777-200LR airplane dedicated to this route.”
The 2–2–2 configured Business Class seats convert into 180 degree horizontal flat beds, each with a 78-inch pitch on par with First Class of many airlines. In Economy Class, the 3–3 –3 configuration means one less seat per row compared with competitors and a seat pitch of up to 34 inches offering unrivalled levels of space and comfort.

With the world's first dedicated passenger terminal for Qatar Airways’ First and Business Class passengers, built at a cost of almost US$100 million at Doha International Airport, the Premium Terminal has truly become an industry leader.

Built in just nine months, the 10,000sqm Premium Terminal with its serene water features offers facilities ranging from exclusive concierge-style seated check-in, duty-free shopping, conference rooms, nursery and play area to spa treatment rooms, saunas, jacuzzis and fine dining restaurants.

Located on the coast of the beautiful Arabian Gulf, Doha is the capital of the Emirate of Qatar, a peninsula jutting out from the landmass of Arabia. One of the fastest growing cities in the region, and the commercial and cultural heart of the country, Doha hosted the Asian Games in December 2006 and is rapidly establishing itself as an exciting travel destination, whether for business or pleasure.

The new route gives Qatar Airways its third daily non-stop service to America, supplementing existing daily services to Washington D.C. and New York City. It is also the airline’s first foray into America’s southern states.
