New Doha International Airport to be ready by 2011 instead of 2015
Qatar Government stated the New Doha International Airport will be ready by 2011 instead of 2015, as the first and second phases have been merged in response to rapid growth in passenger demand (QNA, 20-Oct-2009). A 12 km under sea tunnel has been proposed to link the new airport to the towers area in West Bay.
