Qatar logistics and freight service expansion

Overview

Qatar is expanding its logistics and freight capabilities through its primary hubs, Hamad International Airport and Hamad Port. Initial developments focused on offering diverse air and sea freight options to the United Kingdom and Pakistan, catering to both time-sensitive high-value goods and bulk cargo.

Following these developments, Qatar Airways Cargo announced the launch of a new weekly scheduled freighter service to Helsinki, Finland, beginning September 2, 2026. Utilizing a Boeing 777 freighter on a route connecting Doha, Budapest, and Helsinki, the service adds 100 tonnes of weekly export capacity. This expansion, combined with existing passenger belly-hold capacity, aims to integrate Finnish and Nordic businesses into global supply chains.
