Tickets confirmed, Hayya Card ready! The dream of watching your favourite teams play right in front of you just got real. However, a lot of planning is still left. Just like any trip abroad, it brings up the question of flights and hotels. Choosing the right airline depends on several prerequisites. Hence, it is important to look through available options to choose the right fit for you.

If you are in a bit of a time crunch, booking a direct flight to avoid long layovers is quite essential. In that case, Biman Bangladesh Airlines, the national carrier of Bangladesh, is offering regular direct return flights on the Dhaka-Doha or Chattogram-Doha route. On the other hand, US Bangla Airlines also offers direct Dhaka-Doha flights. On the occasion of the World Cup 2022, they also plan to extend their services on the Chattogram-Doha route.

The national carrier of Qatar, Qatar Airways, is known for its exceptional services. On the occasion of the FIFA World Cup 2022, they are offering a wide range of special flights. Moreover, they are also providing unique FIFA World Cup travel packages to ensure that football fanatics can enjoy it to the fullest. The Official Partner and the Official Airline of FIFA are showcasing a specially-branded Boeing 777 aircraft painted in FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ livery. In this way, passengers can fly through the hype of the FIFA World Cup right upon boarding the aircraft. On top of that, they have daily Dhaka-Doha flights for ultimate flexibility. 

Fly Dubai, on the other hand, has announced shuttle flights to Qatar from neighbouring countries, where travel enthusiasts can make a stop and fly to and from Doha on the day of the match. For travellers who want to take this opportunity to cover a few destinations in one go, this can serve as a great option. Also, Kuwait Airways, with daily 20 shuttle flights between Kuwait and Doha, from 21 November to 18 December, 2022, can serve as another shuttle option throughout the tournament period.

Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Turkish Airlines, SriLankan Airlines, and SalamAir offer transits for travellers seeking to cover a number of places. Be it the blingy city life of Dubai, the beauty and luxury of Changi Airport, a platter of Turkish Delights in Istanbul, the tropical beauty of Sri Lanka or the royalty of Muscat — these flights can enable you to explore cultures in the midst of the football hype.  

Once the flight is booked, it is time to look at hotels. If you are looking for ultimate luxury, five-star hotels like Sheraton Grand Doha Resort and Convention Hotel, Intercontinental Doha Beach and Spa, and Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara serve splendours by the sea. On the other hand, hotels like Marsa Malaz Kempinski, The Pearl Doha, St Regis Doha, W Doha, and Mondrian Doha offer architectural wonders alongside superb hospitality. Radisson Blu Hotel Doha, Millennium Plaza Doha, and DusitD2 Salwa Doha are also some amazing options when it comes to top-notch comfort for a stay to remember!

Now that you know which flight and hotels to choose from for the World Cup trip, all you need to do is go forward with the booking. To help with the process, online travel agencies have come in, presenting the best options, including the lowest flight fares, exclusive deals, and exciting discounts. Only a few taps will be enough to confirm your bookings. ShareTrip, the leading OTA in Bangladesh, has several flight options from Dhaka to Qatar, in addition to an array of hotels to browse from.
