Qatar Duty Free and China UnionPay International offer exclusive rewards 

In celebration of China’s most popular festival, Qatar Duty Free (QDF) and China UnionPay International are offering special Chinese New Year promotions to passengers travelling through Doha’s Hamad International Airport (HIA). UnionPay card holders shopping in QDF boutiques within HIA until 7th February 2017 also have the opportunity to win instant retail vouchers. Passengers purchasing QDF fragrances, cosmetics, skincare, confectionery and other gift items above the value of QAR1500 ($410) using a UnionPay International credit card, will be invited to participate in a lucky draw, and will be rewarded with a traditional Chinese red envelope containing a shopping voucher of either QAR100, QAR150 or QAR200 to enjoy at Qatar Duty Free retail outlets until 9th February 2017. Throughout the festivities a dedicated team of Mandarin-speaking QDF ambassadors, wearing traditional Chinese dress, will welcome travellers to QDF stores highlighting the range of promotions on offer. In celebration of the special occasion a red and gold installation, featuring 450 lucky waving fortune cats, will also be displayed in front of The Airport Hotel in the main departures hall of HIA, perfectly placed for selfies with friends and family. Traditional Chinese-inspired adornments will feature throughout HIA, including the main departures hall and the airport’s South and North Terminal, where shoppers can enjoy a range of artwork inspired by the six destinations Qatar Airways connects travellers to in China, including Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Chongqing, and Guangzhou.
