What ever happened to Qatar Airways flight that was meant to fly into CNX? Do the fly in? Every time I search for flight it comes in via BKK.

No stopped last year, not enough customers, now as you say leaves from BKK. Previously, I booked Qatar to Athens out of CM, ideal !  

its qr823 and  qr822 both flying yesterday and today, also showing for flights in Feb

Think you will find you can book from CM, but uses domestic to BKK , then Qatar from BKK.  Previously, direct from CM to Doha

play the recordings from the above links i posted and you will see direct from cnx to doh.

Previously was daily all year, maybe peak dates you can find direct !

I flew them in April, this year, fleeing from the "hot season", so they were still in operation back then, (for "outbound" at least.) Except for them running out of their first breakfast entry and giving the rest of us -bleck-  ????. great flight.

 

Qatar & Eva fly direct into & out, of Chiang Mai heading different directions. Well worth checking out.

Think they only flew the route for the Winter high season.

If you go to QATAR online site,  you will note the small print says "bangkok airways" is operating their CNX departure. ????

 

The tourist drought hits home. Easy come easy go. And they are gone.

Any alcohol served on the qatar airplanes?  How about bacon & eggs?  I'm on a keto diet.

Except for the fact that you can actually book the flight online.

 

The flights are seasonal.

Correct, I see the Boeing 787 from Quatar when it land as it almost pass over my house in Hangdong area.

I vaguely remember such news.

 

But in December non-stop flights CNX-DOH and DOH-CNX are available on their booking site.

Qatar would not be the only airline with seasonal flights to/from Thailand.

It must be a figment of my imagination because every morning around 7:45 I watch a Qatar 787 take off out if CNX and fly over my condo

Alcohol is definitely served; eggs as part of breakfast, depending on the flight timing/duration. Not so sure about the bacon.

Beef bacon ?  Common in Indonesia.

The only trouble with that flight was it left so early in the morning - had to be at the airport by 6am I suppose - still probably no traffic and no queues at immigration/x-ray security maybe?

i flew with them on 1 December from Doha to CNX and it was a excellent flight but there were only about 40 passengers. Flight attendant told me that a few flights had been cancelled due to lack of demand

Flew last year and there was almost more cabin staff than customers. Never been on a large airliner so empty, probably 15 to 20 people in the entire economy section.. 

Felt at the time it wouldnt last. 

Flew on Dec 14, CNX-DOH, on time, not many passengers in eco, pleasant flight.

Then DOH-CDG, that's another story...

Came in yesterday from Doha, flight probably 3/4 full, landed 6am.

Qatar are not going to get passengers for this flight until they fix their booking system.

 

Looking for a flight in November from Manchester Qatar could only offer a flight with 17 to 19 hour layover in Doha despite there being a much better connection with only 3 hour layover.

 

Took Emirates instead via BKK.

Maybe booked for an exception?

 

At least a quick glance for Dec 21:

MAN 7:25, CNX 6:00 next day, 15h 35m, 2h 45m layover.
