This is great news for travellers as Doha is an important economic hub in the region. The Doha international airport also plays an important role in connecting many international flights and draws several Indians for business and leisure.
Currently, India has entered into air bubble arrangements with 20 countries with the most recent additions being the Netherlands and Tanzania.
