AT THE AIRPORT: SPOTLIGHT PHL In 2014, Qatar Airways became the first new international carrier in more than 10 years to launch service to Philadelphia. Less than a year later, we selected Philadelphia International Airport for the historic inaugural flight of the Airbus 350 to the United States. Over the last three years, our daily service from PHL has allowed American business and leisure travelers to access new connections via Doha, to Africa, Asia, the Middle East and beyond. The proximity of Philadelphia to New York and New Jersey makes it a viable alternative for travelers within the region looking for a convenient gateway. Qatar Airways flies from Terminal A West at PHL and Business Class passengers can access the British Airways Galleries Lounge.

High Speed broadband in the air How do you bolster an already awardwinning product? Our take on doing that is to introduce true high-speed broadband connectivity on our flights across both premium and economy cabins. We have partnered with Inmarsat (GX Aviation) to offer smooth connectivity through their proprietary Global Xpress Ka-band satellite network designed specifically for use in commercial aviation. GX Aviation allows passengers to stream content and browse the internet with the

same speed and efficiency that they would on the ground. The new high-speed broadband internet will initially be available on the Boeing 777 and Airbus 350, making Qatar Airways the first airline in the Middle East to offer this technology. Oryx One goes mobile Oryx One offers our passengers up to 3,000 entertainment options enough to keep passengers entertained for 94 round-the-world trips. Our brand-new Oryx One mobile app will significantly add to the capabilities, functionality and user friendliness of our in-flight entertainment system. Now, passengers can enjoy movie trailers and even read a selection of magazines, newspapers, and other content from Oryx One whilst waiting to board their flight. Adding a whole new level to seamless travel, passengers can also create their own favorite viewing list and transfer it on-board via the ingenious addition of the Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. THE ULTIMATE STOPOVER IN DOHA: HOW TO SPEND OVER SIX HOURS Transiting through Doha presents an opportunity for passengers to experience the exciting sights and sounds of this vibrant city. A stopover of six hours or more means passengers can step out of HIA and into a city filled with culture and history waiting to be explored. The Corniche Only 20 minutes away from HIA, the Corniche is a four-mile long waterfront promenade that lines Doha Bay. It s the perfect vantage point to take in some of the most outstanding views of Doha s dramatic skyline with the contrast of traditional dhows that dot the bay a testament to Qatar s great seafaring past.
