About Qatar Airways
Qatar Airways is the national airline of Qatar and a member of the oneworld alliance. Its network is built around Hamad International Airport in Doha (DOH), where passengers connect between flights from Europe, Africa, the Indian subcontinent, East Asia, Australia and the Americas. Most itineraries on the airline are therefore one-stop journeys through Doha rather than point-to-point trips. Cabins are economy and business class, with first class on a limited number of aircraft. Because it is in oneworld, many tickets combine Qatar Airways flights with those of other member airlines.
Travel agents and developers can look for Qatar Airways on IATA.co in two ways: through the booking portal, or through the flights API if you are building your own search. Both return live fares, and bookings are paid from a prepaid balance on your account. Qatar Airways fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. IATA.co is an independent booking platform, so what you see depends on supplier content at the time you search.
Qatar Airways airline codes explained
Qatar Airways uses the two-letter IATA airline code QR and the three-letter ICAO code QTR. The IATA code QR is the one shown on tickets, fare displays and booking screens, while the ICAO code QTR is used in air traffic control and flight planning.
Qatar Airways is a full-service carrier, based in Qatar, operating mainly from Doha (DOH). It is a member of oneworld.
Booking Qatar Airways fares as a travel agent
Travel agents book Qatar Airways fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live QR fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. Qatar Airways results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.
Search Qatar Airways (QR) through the flights API
Developers and agencies can run the same Qatar Airways search from their own site, app or back office through the IATA.co flights API. Filter a search by the carrier code QR and read the fares back as JSON, then book from the same prepaid balance. See the flights API and the API docs for the full reference.
