Qatar Airways surpasses half of pre-war flight capacity

Qatar Airways has resumed more than half of its pre-war flight schedule for the first time, marking a key milestone in its operational recovery, according to data from Flightradar24.

The airline operated 310 flights on April 15, the tracking service said on April 16, pushing its capacity beyond the 50% threshold as it continues to rebuild services following the disruption caused by the Iran war, Iranian media reports.

Airlines across the Persian Gulf were severely impacted during the conflict, facing widespread airspace closures, direct attacks on airport infrastructure, and a sharp fall in passenger demand, the report noted.
