UK bans flights from Qatar and Oman

Britain has added Qatar to its travel Red List and has band all flights from Qatar, from Friday early morning.

Direct passenger flights from Doha to the UK will end by 4am on the 19th of March 2021 until further notice.

As per an announcement all aircraft carrying passengers will not be permitted to depart Doha if they are due to arrive in the UK on or after this time.

This will have a significant impact on transit passengers too, as for many passengers who are flying to the UK via Doha such as from Sydney to Doha to London will now have the final part of their journey (Doha to London) cancelled due to the UK’s flight ban on Qatar. Passengers will be able to obtain refunds or rebook.
