Our daily feature celebrates memorable scenes, moments, launches and campaigns from the global aviation and travel retail sphere.
Today’s image is one of celebration. It is both timely and joyous.
Today is Qatar National Day and, as reported, Qatar Duty Free and Hamad International Airport have partnered to mark the occasion with a vibrant showcase of Qatari culture. The day will be particularly celebrated in Qatar this year as the country continues to display remarkable resilience against the blockade imposed by several neighbouring Arab countries.
Pictured are management from Hamad International and Qatar Duty Free cutting a huge celebration cake as they launched the campaign on Saturday.
As well as a -20% discount on shopping and dining, the celebrations at the airport showcase the culture of the nation, with everything from ‘Ardha’ sword dancing performances to sampling of local delicacies.
With various activations running until the end of December, the programme offers travellers a window onto the rich culture of Qatar, sharing its hospitality, art, entertainment, cuisine and local products
*As reported, Qatar Duty Free, along with Qatar Airways and Hamad International Airport, will host The Trinity Forum in 2019. The world’s most influential airport commercial revenues conference, a partnership between The Moodie Davitt Report, ACI World and ACI Asia-Pacific, takes place in Doha on 30-31 October.
