Bits: Cape Town deal with Qatar Airways, join a T20 final cricket event with Marriott
News in brief:
Good Qatar Airways deals to Cape Town, Maldives and Asia
Qatar Airways has launched some competitive business class flight deals to key cities including Cape Town, running until the end of the year.
These are probably not the cheapest deals you can find, but you are getting an excellent in-flight product – remember that Qatar Airways won ‘Best Business Class Seat and Service’ at the recent HfP Travel & Loyalty Awards, as voted by our readers.
Remember that Qatar Airways flights earn Avios, either in Qatar Airways Privilege Club or The British Airways Club, and you can also earn tier points in either programme.
From London you are paying from £2,450 return, which isn’t bad for a winter departure. Start in Amsterdam, however, and you could pay as little as €2,267.
It is also worth checking Frankfurt to Cape Town which is only a touch more expensive.
There is also a Brussels to the Maldives fare available from €2,296, or Rome to the Maldives from €2,096.
Stockholm has c €2,000 fares to Hong Kong, Singapore and Johannesburg.
All fares are available from March until the end of the year, although obviously not on every flight, every day.
You can see our Qatar Airways business class reviews (indeed, all of our reviews) on this page of HfP.
