International Bank of Qatar (ibq), one of the leading providers of financial services in Qatar, and Qatar Airways, the world’s 5-star airline, partner once again to offer an exclusive 10 per cent “Private Sale” on all tickets purchased online with an ibq Credit Card. The promotion covers all of Qatar Airways destinations spanning over 100 possible travel destinations. The offer is exclusive to all ibq Credit Card customers. Tickets must be purchased before February 15, 2013 and travel from Doha must commence by May 31, 2013. In addition to the promotion ibq credit cardholders will continue to benefit from their existing guaranteed Cash Back on all purchases, hence making the exclusive “Private Sale” even more attractive.

Philip King, Assistant General Manager of ibq said: “This unique collaboration with the leading airline, Qatar Airways, demonstrates our shared commitment and relentless pursuit of both excellence and service to our customers. As such we are proud to bring to our clients nothing short of the best services and offers which they can continue to enjoy throughout the year. ”

Qatar Airways Vice President Commercial- Qatar, Mr. Ehab Amin, said: “We are very pleased to partner with such an esteemed financial provider as ibq. Qatar Airways is very proud to support customer-driven offers such as this by our local banking institutions. Customer loyalty deserves to be rewarded and we look forward to working closely with ibq on this fantastic promotion.”

In March of this year, ibq won the Banker Middle East ‘Best Credit Card award’ following the robust performance of its prestigious line-up of premium credit cards including the recently launched ibq MasterCard Titanium and the existing ibq Visa Platinum and ibq Visa Infinite. The award demonstrates the bank’s steadfast commitment to excellence in service quality.

ibq’s credit cards are supported by our world class retail banking platform including a 24/7 Call Centre, online and SMS banking.
