Message for U.S. Citizens: Updated Information on Qatar Airways June and July Flights

Qatar Airways has announced additional seats available for purchase on their June 20 and June 27 flights from Kabul, and two additional flights scheduled for July 4 and 7. One-stop connections to Chicago (ORD) and Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) are available on Qatar, and additional connections to U.S. cities may be possible on the same ticket with partner airlines.

We encourage all U.S. citizens and Legal Permanent Residents (LPR/“green card” holders) who wish to return to the United States to utilize these flights while they remain available.  Questions about visa categories eligible for travel should review the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) guidance and White House immigration actions linked below; the U.S. Embassy cannot review individual cases or make travel guarantees.
