It is not surprising that a four-hour flight separates Doha from India. India has many football fans, despite without having any teams competing there, and many of them are travelling to Qatar for the 32-team tournament with 65 matches spread across eight stadiums.
“More than 160 vacation packages have been reserved so far. Kolkata accounts for more than 70% of the inquiries. We offer corporate travel packages for airfare and lodging, even though tickets for the big matches are sold out’’, according to Adit Sarin, the founder of LestacIndia, an Indian travel firm.
