Qatar Airways plans to make use of its largest aircraft – the 517-seat Airbus A380 – to Paris CDG in the height summer. France’s capital last saw the double-decker commonly in December, even though it operated one-offs in March and May. While it was to not return this summer, it now will. It is obtainable to book.
Qatar Airways A380 to France
Taking off on July 1st, the A380 will operate to France on Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Ending for the season on September fifteenth, it should, in fact, help it to accommodate all-important peak summer demand.
There are a complete of 44 departing flights. The schedule is as follows, with all times local. Because the figure below indicates, each flight leaves its Qatar hub in its largest Europe-bound departure bank and returns during its largest Europe arrival bank. That is to hold probably the most connecting passengers.
- Doha to Paris CDG: QR39, 08:00-13:55
- Paris CDG to Doha: QR40, 16:05-23:25

Triple each day CDG flights
Qatar Airways serves CDG triple each day this summer. Based on July’s first week, it’s the airline’s joint second-most-served European destination. Inevitably, London Heathrow is first (47 weekly departures), then Athens, Frankfurt, and CDG, each will 21 weekly.

Nonetheless, if seats on the market and available seat kilometers (seats x km) are considered as a substitute, CDG is second Europe-wide. Within the examined week, Qatar Airways uses the Boeing 777-300ER, A350-1000, A350-900, and A380 to the airport. This mix signifies that Doha-CDG has 367 seats per flight – beaten only by Heathrow in Europe (390).

Previously flew to…
Since introducing the A380 nine years ago in June 2014, Qatar Airways has also used it to Frankfurt (March 2019-March 2020), Guangzhou (June 2016-January 2020), and Melbourne (June 2017-March 2020).
It’s unclear if or when these will see it again. For any to occur, it will must reactivate some or all of its remaining three parked aircraft or cut or reduce other flights.
It also had a one-off service to Atlanta on June 1st, 2016. This commemorated its inaugural service to the US airport, with the 777-200LR taking up from day two. The each day 7,460-mile (12,005 km) route now uses the 777-300ER.
