HIA

Hamad International Airport (HIA) advises its passengers departing during the Eid Al-Adha holiday period to check-in online and arrive 3 hours prior to their flight to ensure a smooth travel experience. Please note that it is essential for departing passengers to present the green health status on their EHTERAZ application or a negative PCR certificate issued no more than 72 hours to enter the terminal building. HIA’s self-service check-in and bag-drop facilities are also available, which allow passengers to check-in, print their boarding passes and bag tags; tag their bags; and drop them at the bag drop swiftly before proceeding to border control.   For the convenience and safety of departing and returning passengers, access to the arrival and departure terminal building is restricted to travelling passengers only. Kindly conduct pick-ups and drop-offs at the short-term car park and avoid using the curbside. HIA recommend passengers to keep themselves updated on the travel requirements of the country they are travelling to for a smooth check-in process at HIA. Passengers are reminded that check-in closes sixty minutes prior to departure time.
