Malaysia Airlines to Resume Limited Daily Flights to Doha from 2 July 2026

Malaysia Airlines resumes one daily Doha service from 2 July 2026, with remaining frequencies under review.

KLIA, 29 April 2026 – Malaysia Airlines will resume limited services to Doha (DOH) from 2 July 2026 , following Qatar’s reopening of its airspace to international carriers and the gradual reinstatement of operations at Hamad International Airport (HIA). The reopening of operations follows the issuance of a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) by the Qatar Civil Aviation Authority (QCAA), confirming operational readiness. International airline services are now gradually resuming, with initial flights operating through a designated flight corridor coordinated by the QCAA. Malaysia Airlines operations will initially be limited to one daily service (MH160/161) . The remaining frequencies (MH164/165 and MH168/169) will continue to be suspended until 24 October 2026, subject to ongoing review. The Doha service was initially suspended from 28 February 2026 due to airspace closures affecting the region. The airline continues to closely monitor the situation through ongoing risk assessments and relevant NOTAMs before fully resuming operations. Amal by Malaysia Airlines, the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimage arm of Malaysia Aviation Group, are operating flights to Jeddah (JED) and Madinah (MED) as scheduled to accommodate the 2026 Hajj season with a total of 110 flights across two phases, transporting a combined total of 15,620 pilgrims. The safety of passengers and crew remains our highest priority.
