Qatar Airways’ Latest Inflight Duty Free Magazine
From cosmetics and fragrances to watches, jewellery, gifts, electronic products, travel and fashion accessories, the airline has introduced a wider selection of items than ever before for the discerning traveller.

Features of the magazine include an exciting collection of over 160 items, of which 80 are new products included for the first time, 20 are best selling items, as well as 11 products exclusively available onboard Qatar Airways.

“We are delighted to introduce our new onboard Duty Free magazine and once again we have put together some exciting products at highly competitive prices,” he said.

“In recognition of the huge success of our onboard duty free programme, Qatar Airways was recently named Inflight Retailer of the Year at the prestigious Frontier Awards in Cannes. After this, more and more of the world’s leading brands have shown keen interest to be a part of the airline’s onboard shopping experience.”

Some key products introduced are popular Japanese Shisiedo skin care products, sophisticated brand new collections from Emporio Armani watches, Faber Castell writing instruments, Ajmal Perfumes and an exclusive Bvlgari Miniature collection to name a few.

Best selling items being continued this year include Lancome, Christian Dior and La Prairie cosmetics and skin care products and the very popular Russian trio set from Buckley Jewellery.

“Qatar Airways Inflight Duty Free magazine Shopping Extravaganza has always been regarded by our passengers as one of the finest in quality and product range. We would like to thank our passengers for their continued patronage and look forward to surpassing their expectations in the years to come,” added Hunter.
