Doha International Airport

About Doha International Airport

Doha International Airport (IATA: DIA, ICAO: OTBD) (Arabic: مطار الدوحة الدولي) is an international airport in Doha, Qatar, which served as the country's primary commercial airport until the nearby Hamad International Airport opened in May 2014. While all scheduled commercial traffic ceased, the airport site and existing runway are still used by Qatar Emiri Air Force, Qatar Amiri Flight, Rizon Jet, Gulf Helicopters and Qatar Aeronautical College. It also acts as a state/diplomatic airport catering to both Qatar Amiri Flight (which is based at the airport) and state-visit flights. The airport temporarily welcomed commercial flights once again in late 2022 for selected airlines, to handle increased traffic for the 2022 FIFA World Cup that Qatar hosted in November.
