✈️ Transportation Guide: 10-hour direct flight, seamlessly connecting desert and sea
1. Flight Options
• Shanghai direct to Doha: Qatar Airways QR889, departing Pudong at 23:35, arriving at 05:35 the next day, about 10 hours total, round-trip with tax only 5,000+ yuan (look for Shenzhen Airlines codeshare special fares, more economical with 2 pieces of 23kg luggage included).
• Doha city transportation: The Red Line subway covers 90% of attractions, recommended to purchase a 12-yuan day pass; use Uber for taxis (starting fare about 18 yuan), or rent a car (Chinese driver's license + translation document accepted)

📝 Visa and Entry: 30-day visa-free, smooth immigration
• Chinese passport holders are visa-free! Just need a passport valid for more than 6 months + departure flight booking confirmation, no nucleic acid test required for entry, maximum stay of 30 days.
• Tips: Download offline maps in advance (weak signal in desert areas), free tourist maps available at the airport.
