Qatar Airways Expands Codeshare with Aer Lingus and LEVEL, Adds 18 New Routes Across U.S. and South America

Doha, Qatar — October 6, 2025
Qatar Airways has significantly expanded its transatlantic network by extending its codeshare partnerships with Aer Lingus and LEVEL, two member airlines of the International Airlines Group (IAG). This strategic expansion unlocks 18 new destinations across the United States and South America, offering passengers even greater connectivity and convenience.

This latest development builds on Qatar Airways' successful 2024 codeshare launch with Aer Lingus, and marks a renewed partnership with Barcelona-based LEVEL, enhancing travel options through two key European gateways: Dublin Airport (DUB) and Barcelona-El Prat Airport (BCN).

New U.S. Routes via Aer Lingus

From Dublin, Qatar Airways passengers can now access the following 11 U.S. cities on Aer Lingus-operated flights:

• Boston

  
  

• Bradley International (Connecticut)

• Cleveland

• Indianapolis

• Minneapolis

• Nashville

• Newark

• Orlando

• Philadelphia

• Washington Dulles

• Las Vegas (coming soon)

Passengers connecting through Dublin can also benefit from U.S. Pre-Clearance, enabling them to clear U.S. customs and immigration before departure, arriving in the U.S. as domestic travelers—an exclusive feature offered at only a handful of airports worldwide.

New Americas Destinations via LEVEL

Through its renewed codeshare with LEVEL, Qatar Airways customers flying via Barcelona (BCN) can now travel to:

• Boston

• Los Angeles

• Miami

• New York

• San Francisco

• Buenos Aires

• Santiago (launching soon)

These routes further strengthen Qatar Airways’ reach into North and South America, complementing its direct services and existing codeshare agreements across the region.

“This strategic progress enhances Qatar Airways’ award-winning service in the Americas and Europe, and enables travellers in these regions to seamlessly access over 170 destinations in our global network through Hamad International Airport, the Best Airport in the Middle East as voted by Skytrax in 2025.”

Aer Lingus: Expanding Reach and Comfort for Transatlantic Passengers

Susanne Carberry, Chief Customer Officer at Aer Lingus, added:

“Aer Lingus is delighted to partner with Qatar Airways to extend our services to its customers travelling to a number of top U.S. destinations. We have significantly grown our North American network in recent years, with many routes operated by our new Airbus A321 XLR aircraft.”

“Customers flying with Aer Lingus also benefit from Dublin Airport’s US Pre-Clearance, ensuring a smooth, time-saving experience. We’re excited to welcome new customers and deliver the warm Irish hospitality we are known for.”

LEVEL: Reconnecting the Americas via Barcelona

Lucía Adrover, Chief Commercial and Network Officer at LEVEL, said:

“We are delighted to re-introduce our partnership with Qatar Airways and to further expand our codeshare agreement. This strengthens Barcelona’s role as a transatlantic hub and connects the Middle East and Asia with the Americas through our competitive and guest-focused model.”
