Airlink expands Qatar Airways codeshare, adds Doha as first long-haul destination
Airlink is expanding its codeshare agreement with Qatar Airways, with the South African carrier set to place its code on Qatar Airways-operated flights from August 31.
Airlink has extended its codeshare partnership with Qatar Airways, beginning on August 31, 2025. This expanded agreement will see Airlink's code utilized on Qatar Airways-operated flights between South Africa and Doha, promoting the Qatari capital as its first long-haul destination. The partnership, which includes daily services from Johannesburg and Cape Town, along with a one-daily service from Durban, will provide passengers with outward journeys via Johannesburg - Doha - Johannesburg, Johannesburg - Doha - Cape Town, and Durban - Doha - Durban.
Presently, Airlink operates 194 weekly flights to 27 cities across 20 African nations. The expanded collaboration also solidifies Qatar Airways' commitment to connectivity to and from South Africa. Passengers can now earn and redeem Skybucks through Airlink Skybucks and Avios via Qatar Airways Privilege Club on flights operated by either airline.
