good idea ,.. unless I don't like handball...
i am 100% agree with you smartyshabs...
Karwa Taxi (limousine) FREE? hahaha good joke!!! Generally its too hard to convenes 95% karwa taxi drivers to drop you at desired place even if you are ready to pay fare by meter. They have popular excuses i.e. i am not going on that route, i have finished my duty or pay almost double. last 3 years i have complain about them 5 times. They said they will call me back but untill now no call from karwa. so sad. so i just imagine now when they said free taxi what made me ROFL :-)
They don't pick you even when you are ready to pay by meter ... so shud not expect any free service even if you hold any ticket for any major event in Qatar
Tried calling three times and Karwa has no idea...
Don't rely on them for a free taxi to handball
"the ticket holders have to contact Karwa in advance to check the availability and give the ticket serieal number.
