As part of Qatar Airways' commitment to e-commerce, the airline will introduce more web-based services and have a new-look website, beginning this summer. Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said as the airline was growing at an unprecedented rate, it was striving to ensure passengers are provided with more ease and greater levels of comfort during the booking process. "Qatar Airways has a committed strategy to develop the e-commerce side of our business," he said. "As we grow our business - and we are growing at an incredible rate - we recognize the importance of providing all our passengers with easier processes and the new-look booking engine will definitely make the booking procedure more convenient." Qatar Airways is one of the fastest growing airlines in the world, serving 75 destinations across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Far East and the Indian subcontinent from its hub of Doha, capital of the State of Qatar. The airline also operates a modern fleet of 57 all-Airbus aircraft. With a growing international network, Al Baker added that more travelers would have an opportunity to use Qatar Airways' brand new Premium Terminal at Doha International Airport, exclusively for departing First and Business Class passengers. The Premium Terminal features facilities such as a spa, Jacuzzi, duty free, business centre and fine dining restaurants. Built in just nine months, the US$90 million terminal is the world's first commercial passenger building dedicated to First and Business Class passengers.
