Oneworld carrier Qatar Airways offers one of the world’s best business class products, but rarely discounts its premium fares. One of the few instances of a sub-€2,000 fare for a decent flying time is their current sale for flights from Stockholm to Kolkata, India, with prices going as low as SEK 17,802 (~€1,520) for a light fare. These tickets don’t include lounge access or seat selection. The cheapest fare including lounge access costs roughly SEK 20,000 (~€1,708).
This deal has been extended until January 17, 2024.
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates for €1,600 or less for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to Qatar Airways with your selected flight dates.
Flights between Stockholm and Doha are Boeing 787 services, flights to India are operated by Airbus A350 aircraft. While both planes feature a state-of-the-art business class with lie-flat-seats in a 1-2-1 seating pattern, there are no planes carrying Qatar Airways’ famous QSuite on these flights.
Flights from Doha to Kolkata take roughly 5 hours, while the flights between Qatar and Sweden are 90 minutes longer.
Search & Book
According to the fare rules, the lowest price is available until January 17, 2024 for travel between January and June 2024. A minimum stay of 4 days is necessary to get the cheapest tickets. You may not stay longer than 2 months.
Google Flights helps you find additional flight dates. We recommend buying premium tickets directly from the airline.
Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?
More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:
Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.
If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.
This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.
Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.
This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.
