Qatar Airways announces that the airline will be resuming services to Venice, Italy starting from 15 July 2020. The popular tourist destination and major arts and cultural center will become the airline’s third destination in Italy to resume flights, marking a significant step in the resumption of global leisure travel.

The national carrier of the State of Qatar will also increase flights to Dublin, Milan and Rome, with daily services starting from 13 June 2020. As one of the only global airlines to have maintained a significant schedule throughout this crisis, Qatar Airways is uniquely positioned to monitor trends in traffic flow and passenger bookings. The airline expects the additional flights to provide further seamless connectivity via its award-winning hub, Hamad International Airport, with its Asia-Pacific destinations, in particular Australia where the airline continues to operate 21 weekly flights to Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.

We are excited to resume services to Venice, one of the most iconic and popular tourist destinations in the world. Throughout this crisis, our focus has been on helping to take people home and transporting medical aid and essential supplies to impacted regions. The resumption of services to Venice is a major milestone not just for our airline but also for the global tourism industry, indicating the start of the gradual return of international leisure travel. We look forward to supporting the many businesses in Venice that rely on international tourism and expanding these flights as demand grows.

His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive

Qatar Airways will operate three-weekly flights to Venice by its state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliner, featuring 22 seats in Business Class and 232 Seats in Economy class. The airline has further enhanced its onboard safety measures for passengers and cabin crew. The airline is implementing several changes, including the introduction of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) suits for cabin crew while onboard, as well as a modified service that reduces interactions between the passengers and the crew inflight. Cabin crew have already been wearing PPE during flights for a number of weeks, including gloves and face masks. Passengers will also be required to wear face coverings inflight, with the carrier recommending travellers bring their own for fit and comfort purposes.

To ensure travellers can plan their travel with peace of mind, the airline has extended its booking policies to offer even more choice to its passengers. The airline will allow unlimited date changes, and passengers can change their destination as often as they need if it is within 5,000 miles of the original destination. The airline will not charge any fare differences for travel completed before 31 December 2020, after which fare rules will apply. All tickets booked for travel up to 31 December 2020 will be valid for two years from the date of issuance.

The national carrier of the State of Qatar has built a strong level of trust with passengers, governments, trade and airports  as a reliable partner during this crisis. With its plans for expanding its network and strengthening airline partnerships, the airline is well positioned to continue delivering on its mission to be the airline travellers can trust.

Atmosphere Core Brings Ultimate Luxury to Nepal with Aarunya Nature Resort

Aarunya Nature Resort by Atmosphere Core at Nepal

Atmosphere Core accelerates its global expansion by introducing its first resort in Nepal, AARUNYA NATURE RESORT BY ATMOSPHERE. Nestled in the serene Banepa Valley, just outside Kathmandu, this addition clearly highlights the company’s ambition to lead the luxury travel sector by offering unique and inspiring destinations. Moreover, this milestone marks a key step in the company’s strategy to grow its international footprint and establish itself as a significant player in the hospitality industry.

Salil Panigrahi, Group Managing Director of Atmosphere Core, expressed his excitement about the new project:

Nepal is fast emerging as a key destination in South Asia’s luxury hospitality landscape, and travellers are increasingly seeking immersive, offbeat destinations. With properties coming up in Maldives, India, and Sri Lanka, Aarunya Nature Resort is a natural next step. Our distinctive Holiday Plan concept opens up destinations once reserved for the global elite. It’s about making these spaces more accessible without compromising on authenticity. Aarunya Nature Resort by Atmosphere is more than a resort, it’s a way to truly experience Nepal, its stories, its rituals, its generous spirit

A Unique Luxury Experience in the Heart of Nepal

Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts and Lost Horizon Jungle Resort Limited formed a strategic partnership to create Aarunya Nature Resort, which will open in late 2025. Together, the two companies bring the brand’s distinctive vision to life in one of South Asia’s most breathtaking settings. Banepa, a historic town that rises 5,000 feet above sea level in Nepal’s Bagmati Province, surrounds itself with misty hills and sacred trails, thus creating an ideal backdrop for a peaceful, soul-enriching type of travel. The 25-acre resort will offer guests spectacular views of the Himalayas and, on clear days, even glimpses of Mount Everest.

The resort will feature 51 elegantly designed cottages and suites. Each unit will provide stunning views of the surrounding Himalayan landscape through expansive windows. Additionally, the interiors will reflect the local culture and the natural beauty of the Kathmandu Valley, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Guests will also enjoy diverse culinary experiences across two distinct restaurants: one offering all-day dining with alfresco seating, and the other serving a specialty menu that blends Nepali and Asian flavors.

Wellness and Recreation for Every Traveler

Alongside luxurious accommodations, the resort will offer a wellness sanctuary by ELE|NA, the award-winning wellness brand from Atmosphere Core. The sanctuary will promote deep relaxation by combining traditional wellness therapies with modern treatments. Furthermore, the resort will present a variety of recreational options, including nature walks, cultural experiences, and family-friendly activities. Notably, a dedicated kids’ club and a swimming pool will ensure travelers of all ages find something enjoyable.

Immersing Guests in the Spirit of Nepal

Gyanendra Lal Pradhan, Chairman of Lost Horizon Jungle Resort Limited, shared his enthusiasm for the partnership:

Partnering with Atmosphere Core is a natural fit. Their approach to hospitality is both grounded in global service standards and elevated by unique experiences – exactly what we envisioned for Aarunya. Surrounded by cultural treasures and iconic trails, like the path to the Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery in Namobuddha, Banepa is emerging as a mindful luxury destination. It blends history, spirituality, and natural beauty in a way that few places can. We’re proud to be shaping something special here, together”.

Aarunya Nature Resort will offer visitors an opportunity to experience the very essence of Nepal by blending natural beauty with rich cultural experiences. Consequently, the resort will define Nepal’s luxury tourism scene, providing a peaceful, immersive retreat for those who seek to connect with the land and its traditions in a meaningful way. By staying at Aarunya, travelers will not only explore breathtaking landscapes but also embrace the spirit, history, and generosity that characterize Nepal.
