»»New Non-Stop Flights on U.S. - Qatar Routes

Beginning October 26, Qatar Airways will operate a non-stop daily flight on the Doha – New York route.
The airline also announced it will switch its existing six-flights-a-week between Doha and Newark Liberty International Airport, via Geneva, to New York’s JFK Airport.

Under the new schedules, Qatar Airways will no longer operate flights between Geneva and New York.

Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said:

Doha - Qatar

“We are now preparing to go daily with our brand new Boeing 777s featuring lie-flat Business Class seats from October and offer unprecedented levels of space and comfort, which will truly give us an edge over our competitors in the Middle East and around the world. The move to New York’s JFK Airport is in response to passenger demand flying to one of America’s premier airports on the US east coast.”

Starting December 8, Qatar Airways is to launch scheduled flights to Houston, which at 17 hours, will be one of the longest flights in the world non-stop from Doha. (source).
