Qatar Airways is increasing frequency on its Doha to Manchester route from May 2.
The Gulf carrier will operate 16 flights a week between the two cities as it responds to an increase in passenger demand.
The additional Monday and Saturday services will depart Doha at 0105, landing into Manchester at 0650, with the return leg leaving the UK at 0900 and arriving back into Doha at 1805.
Qatar will operate the new frequencies with its Boeing Dreamliner, configured with 22 seats in business and 232 in economy.
Qatar Airways UK and Ireland country manager, Richard Oliver, said: “Increasing services to and from Manchester will provide our passengers with even more convenient connection times and greater choice when connecting to onward flights through our state-of-the-art Doha hub, Hamad International Airport.
"Combined with our recent announcement of a new 8-times weekly service from Birmingham, this means that Qatar Airways will operate a total of 73 direct services to Doha a week from the UK providing even more access to 154 destinations worldwide.”
