Specifically, the airline runs multiple daily services between Hamad International Airport (DOH) in Doha and Sheremetyevo International Airport (SVO). While many European and North American carriers suspended flights to Russia following geopolitical events in 2022, Qatar Airways, along with other Middle Eastern carriers like Emirates and Etihad, has maintained its routes. This makes Doha one of the primary global transit hubs for travelers flying into or out of Russia from the West. Flights are typically operated using modern wide-body aircraft like the Boeing 777-300ER, often featuring their award-winning Qsuite business class. Travelers should be aware that while the flights are operational, there may be specific restrictions regarding international credit cards and insurance while on the ground in Russia, so it is vital to check the latest travel advisories before booking your journey in 2026.
