Book flights from Baku to Doha with Qatar Airways
When you step on board flights from Baku to Doha with Qatar Airways, you can be sure that you’ll be well looked after by an attentive cabin crew from the moment you come on board to the moment you land. Enjoy a range of world-class services along the way, including award-winning cuisine, and relax in spacious, ergonomically designed seating with plenty of legroom.
Whether you’re here for business or pleasure, Doha has plenty to offer. There’s an attractive balance between the busy economic heart of the city and the bay side Corniche promenade and city parks. The green spaces and central high-rise developments complement one another rather than compete for space, and structures like the dazzling offshore Museum of Islamic Art add to the charm of the city. Visit Souq Waqif for an evening meal and an atmospheric shopping experience, or stop by The Pearl for breathtaking views of the bay.
Flying from Baku
Heydar Aliyev International Airport is located just about 20 kilometres away from the centre of Baku, the capital of the country, and is a modern airport that sees up to three million passengers a year. However, it has the capacity to handle twice that number, so passengers flying from Baku with Qatar Airways will find it to be a spacious, comfortable and well-organised airport that focuses on the customer experience from the moment of arrival until take-off.
Transportation and parking
A custom-built highway leads from Baku right to the airport, so travellers arriving by car will find it to be an easy and hassle-free journey.
If you don’t have a hire car then the easiest way to get to the airport, especially if you have a large amount of luggage, is to pre-order a taxi through your hotel concierge or reception. Buses do run to the airport, but they tend to be very crowded. Two parking lots are available, one in front of each of the terminal buildings. There are spaces for up to 1,600 vehicles on both short and long-term parking.
Arriving at the airport
Passengers flying from Baku with Qatar Airways depart from Terminal 1, which is for international flights only. The terminal is modern and well designed, meaning that check-in processes and customs checks are relatively smooth and quick.
Allow approximately an hour and a half to two hours before your flight is due to board, and ensure that all your documentation is correct and in order before you arrive, as security can be tight.
Facilities and amenities
The terminal has Duty Free outlets where you can pick up last-minute gifts, perfume and luxury items. A few food vendors offer snacks-on-the-go and hot beverages, and Wi-Fi is available in some areas of the airport. The interior design of the terminal includes a series of oak-veneer ‘cocoons’, some of which act as small private lounges. There are ATMs and currency exchange facilities, as well as comfortable and very spacious lounge areas.

Tourist attractions
Doha has a wonderful selection of museums, including the Msheireb Enrichment Centre. This is a barge docked at the Doha Corniche, close to one of the city's oldest landmarks, the Sheraton Hotel. It holds exhibits that chart the country’s historic background as well as its continuing plans for the future.
The Mathaf Arab Museum of Modern Art has recently opened and is home to a collection of modern art from across the Arab world.
The Al Koot Fort was built in 1880, and is a popular photographic stop for tourists visiting Souq Waqif – a charming traditional market and the social heart of the city. The Clock Tower is next to the Grand Mosque, and because of its hilltop position it offers panoramic views of Doha and the Corniche.
Doha Heritage Village is located along the Corniche in Al Rumeilia Park, and is based on a traditional Qatari village.
