Qatar has become the latest country to try to breathe life into its local cruise market with the launch of a series of cruises to nowhere.
The tiny Middle East nation has teamed up with French luxury expedition cruise line Ponant to run six consecutive departures starting in late March 2021.
The cruises will take place aboard the 184-passenger Le Champlain (built 2018) and passengers will be subjected to strict health and safety protocols.
