Philippine Airlines and Qatar Airways are expanding their strategic partnership with a broader codeshare agreement and new reciprocal frequent-flyer benefits, adding more than 40 destinations to their combined networks.
Building on a codeshare launched in June 2025, Philippine Airlines will from 1 June 2026 place its PR code on Qatar Airways services from Manila, Cebu, Clark, and Davao to Doha. According to the carriers, these flights will provide connections via Hamad International Airport to over 20 major European cities, including Paris, Rome, and Frankfurt. Qatar Airways will, in turn, place its QR code on Philippine Airlines domestic services from Manila and Cebu to leisure destinations such as Caticlan and Puerto Princesa, improving access to Philippine tourist markets.
The partnership now extends to loyalty programs. Qatar Airways Privilege Club members can earn and redeem Avios on Philippine Airlines flights across Australasia, Southeast Asia, the United States, and additional points within the Philippines, including Cebu, Clark, and Davao City. Philippine Airlines Mabuhay Miles members can likewise earn and redeem miles across Qatar Airways global network, including routes to Africa and Europe. The enhanced cooperation follows earlier announcements of daily nonstop Manila–Doha service under codeshare and is intended to deepen connectivity between the Middle East, Europe, and the Philippines.
