Check-in
It is recommended that you arrive at the Doha International Airport atlease three hours before departure.The check-in counter closes at least one hour prior to departure, thus it is imperative that you arrive to check-in for your flight on-time. Under an hour, both the flight and baggage check-in are subject to closure. The gate normally closes 20 minutes prior to departure. This could vary depending on your departure airport.
Our staff are trained to provide a quick and efficient check-in process. If you require any special assistance to your departure gate, we will be happy to assist you.
