Qatar Airways has refuted reports claiming it has shut down its offices in Pakistan, reassuring customers that the airline continues to operate "as usual."

In a statement shared on the social media platform X today, the airline clarified, “Qatar Airways flights to and from Pakistan are operating as usual, and our offices remain open.”On Tuesday, reports had surfaced that Qatar Airways had shut down its offices across Pakistan as part of a strategy to reduce operational costs.

It was reported that the airline's decision to close its offices will not affect its flight operations, but it will impact certain departments such as counter sales, administration, and finance.

Qatar Airways has confirmed that these reports were false, stating that their services in the country have not been affected. The clarification comes after reports surfaced suggesting that the Qatari national carrier had closed its offices in Pakistan as part of cost-cutting initiatives.
