Qatar Airways achieves highest operating rate since the start of the war

Share

Recent flight data shows a significant increase in Qatar Airways flights, with 172 flights recorded on March 30, 2026, marking a nearly 41% increase in just one week.
This surge is a further indication of the airline’s operational recovery following the sharp decline experienced at the start of the US-Israeli war on Iran.
According to an analysis by Al Jazeera’s Open Source Unit, flight operations plummeted to near-standstill levels at the beginning of March, with only three flights recorded on the first of the month and two the following day.
By the second half of the month, operations began to gradually increase, reaching their highest level since the beginning of the crisis at 172 flights on March 30.
The data timeline indicates a continuous upward trend in recent weeks, reflecting a gradual return to normal operations after the initial escalation. (Al-Arab Newspaper)
