(MENAFN) Qatar Airways (QA) has announced to introduce nearly 40 percent additional capacity to its two South American gateways - Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo - from December 1, when the airline upgrades its aircraft operating on the route from a Boeing 777-200LR to a Boeing 777-300ER.
The upgrade to the 'Extended Range' aircraft will provide an additional 99 seats a day from the airline's hub in Doha to Sao Paulo and Buenos Aires, the capital cities of Brazil and Argentina, respectively.
QA's aircraft operating on the route are Boeing 777-200LR with 259 seats, which will increase to 358.
Commercial passenger traffic from the two cities to QA's network of over 150 destinations via Doha provides travellers with some of the shortest travel times from South America to destinations such as Bangkok, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Beirut, Singapore, Delhi and Maldives, and many other places can be conveniently reached via Doha.
