|
| Tokyo November 18, 2004 - ANA Group and Qatar Airways will commence
a reciprocal Frequent Flyer Programme agreement on December 1 this year, giving
the 1.1 million plus ANA Mileage Club (AMC) members and around 70,000 Qatar Airway's
Privilege Club members the ability to accrue and redeem mileage on the entirety
of each others' networks. |

| Qatar Airways is the national carrier of the Arabian Gulf State of Qatar and
one of the fastest growing airlines in the world, aiming to extend its network
from the present 53 destinations to 70 by the end of next year. Its expansion
plans also include non-stop flights from Doha to Osaka (Kansai) from spring 2005.
Qatar Airways serves Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and the Far East with
one of the world's youngest fleets, and offers added value to AMC members who
travel to Qatar and beyond on business or pleasure. |

| Likewise, Qatar Airways' Frequent Flyers travelling on domestic or international
ANA flights will be able to accrue Privilege Club miles for redemption against
a variety of products and services, including award flights or upgrades. ANA is
one of the top 10 ten air passenger carriers in the world with an extensive domestic
network covering the whole of Japan, and flights to 22 overseas destinations in
Europe, North America, Asia and the Pacific. |
