It is especially pleasant that along with the increase in tourist flow, the duration of tourists in Qatar is also increasing, the number of Russians choosing the country as an independent destination for recreation is growing, she said (quoted by the PCT press service). |  |

The Pax started Qatar sales in 2017 with 40 tourists a year, and almost all were delayed in Doha briefly during transit flights. And now the company is sending thousands of people there. In 2023, already two-thirds of the total number of tourists who chose Qatar flew for the purpose of beach and excursion tourism for a period of 7 to 14 days, Chuchmaeva noted.
