The decision to increase the transit time of passengers at the Hamad International Airport, allowing them to stay in Qatar for up to 96 hours, is set to lead to a surge in tourist arrivals to the country, travel agents and tour operators have said.
"The new decision will be a game-changer for tourist arrivals in the country as it makes stopovers easier and more attractive to Qatar Airways' global passengers. It will deliver additional value to the local economy while strengthening Qatar's position as an attractive tourist destination," Syed Shamshuddin of Magic Travels & Tours said.
Mohammed Amin of Pigeon Travel said the move will promote Qatar as a world-class stopover destination as passengers of all nationalities can take advantage of the facility to explore the country on a 96-hour transit visa.
