Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer has unveiled a series of major new developments to redefine global airlines’ future. These developments are part of a strategic roadmap designed to invigorate the airline and its group of businesses, with innovation as the cornerstone.
In his first interview since his appointment in November 2023, Engr. Al-Meer revealed to CNBC that the airline is entering a “new era”. He outlined his approach to developing a high-yielding concept for Qatar Airways’ new first-class cabin. “Based on the demand from certain sectors, we see a high demand for First Class, and as such, have decided to introduce a newly-designed First Class cabin unique to Qatar Airways,” he stated. The new cabin, which is 70 to 80 per cent complete, combines the experience of flying commercial and executive jets to create something new and unique.
Engr. Al-Meer also announced the redesign of Qatar Airways’ premium Qsuite, set to debut at the Farnborough International Airshow in July 2024. The award-winning Qsuite Business Class, launched in 2017, continues to set industry standards.
According to Engr. Al-Meer, the competitive aviation landscape in the GCC region, is helping raise the bar for customer experience. He welcomes any challenge for Qatar Airways and remains confident in the airline’s ability to maintain its market-leading position and outshine any competition.
Digital innovation drives organisational efficiencies as the airline continues announcing exciting new routes in growth markets, including China and India. This enhances Qatar’s position as a gateway to the world. Qatar Airways currently serves over 170 global destinations and will soon launch inaugural flights to Hamburg and Tashkent and resume flights to Lisbon and Venice. Several summer seasonal routes will also be resumed, including Adana, Antalya, Bodrum, Marrakesh, Mykonos, Sarajevo, and Trabzon.
Engr. Al-Meer, who was appointed Group CEO in November 2023, has focused on introducing innovative programmes to benefit both passengers and the airline’s 60,000-strong global workforce. He stressed the importance of cultivating trust and empowerment in the work culture. Under his leadership, various workplace initiatives have been successfully introduced that continue to improve employee satisfaction.
