"This event is in celebration of a long-standing relationship between Qatar Airways and the State of Texas. Our success in Houston paved the way for further expansion within Texas. Dallas/Fort Worth’s response to our award-winning five-star service has been overwhelmingly positive so far," said Koleilat.
"Qatar Airways and DFW have already proven an extremely successful partnership; one which I hope will continue long into the future. We will continue to welcome passengers from DFW on board, to experience our renowned five-star service and into our new home at Hamad International Airport - the world's newest aviation hub," added the airline's Vice President - Commercial for the Americas, Titus Johnson.
