Dear all

Am taking a break from Doha this weekend to India.
As this is my first travel from Doha to anywhere was wondering whether the Duty Free is Doha is as big as Dubai airport and whether the prices are equivalent???

Besides food stuff does Doha Duty Free have the antique and hand wrk items like Dubai duty free.

Pl do give some insight as i will spending more than 2-3 hours in the Duty Free tomorrow - if it's not good will take a book in hand :)

Best
Harish

Doha duty free is not big as the dubai duty free...items price wise they are both same. One thing i can tell you is that the sales staff in doha duty free are helpful & friendly. Good luck & have a nice travel.

Doha duty free area is much smaller compared to Dubai but the prices are almost the same. Dubai has got a bigger collection of everything but Doha duty free has got its limitation due the smaller area they have.

Have you actually looked at the Airport? Its about 1/10 the size so no. Dubai Duty Free is bigger than the whole airport in Doha.

Hari ,

Are you for real ? How can you even THINK of comparing Dubai Duty free with Doha Duty free.

Take your favourite book , but spend some time at the Doha Duty free too , so that you can write a synposis for future people who may have this question in mind.
