The latest shop openings in Qatar follow from an unprecedented rate of expansion for the airline in this month alone, having inaugurated a dedicated Jazeera sales shop in Bahrain and five sales shops in Kuwait; in addition to welcoming the delivery of two brand new A320's - bringing the airline's total fleet size to ten to support the opening of 13 new routes in the month of June alone - all in time for the summer season.

Jazeera Airways’ CCO, Steven Greenway commented on the new openings; "June has been a very busy month for our airline and we are excited to build upon our successes so far by opening two new shops in Qatar. Taking delivery of a brand new aircraft and opening all these new outlets in such a short space of time demonstrates how we are actively expanding our operations, and that we are always finding ways to make our Jazeera service much more accessible to people right in the heart of their local communities. We also plan to open further Jazeera Airways shops later this year, giving passengers across the entire region even more convenience - and freedom to fly - with Jazeera."

Passengers now have a number of ways to book their travel and find the best deal for them this summer and throughout the year; either from the convenience of their local sales shop, or through Jazeera's existing internet and call centre options. The sales shops will offer the same special Jazeera and additional services that can be found online - including travel insurance and car hire. Jazeera now operates a twice daily service to Kuwait from Qatar providing excellent timings for same-day business trips while also providing convenient connections to destinations across the network, including Damascus, Egypt and Iran.
