Qatar Airways Adds 18 US Routes via IAG Codeshare Expansion

Qatar Airways has expanded its codeshare agreement with IAG brands Aer Lingus and Level to include 18 more transatlantic routes to the US.

This strengthens Qatar’s connectivity between the Middle East, Europe, and North America.

The carrier will add its code to Aer Lingus-operated flights from Dublin Airport (DUB) to 11 new US destinations: Boston, Bradley International (Connecticut), Cleveland, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, Nashville, Newark, Orlando, Philadelphia, Washington Dulles, and Las Vegas.

This expansion leverages Aer Lingus’s growing North American network, including routes flown by its new Airbus A321XLR aircraft.

Aer Lingus also emphasizes the convenience of Dublin Airport’s US pre-clearance facility, allowing passengers to clear US immigration before departure.

The reinstated codeshare with Level, IAG’s low-cost carrier based in Barcelona, includes new flights from Barcelona (BCN) to Boston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York JFK, San Francisco, Buenos Aires, and Santiago in Chile.

A month ago, Qatar announced the launch of three weekly flights operating from Doha (DOH) to Red Sea (RSI), making the new route the only direct flight connecting RSI to over 170 destinations via Qatar’s global network.
