Doha: Turkish Airlines was the proud sponsor and official airline of the 2020 Ooredoo Ride of Champions, organised by Qatar Cyclists Center.

As part of their support, and to celebrate the 2020 event, they are giving away round-trip (return) tickets between Doha and its expansive network in Turkey, and even flights to Europe. Prizes are being distributed in lucky draws or competitions including the Corporate Challenge, Social Media (for participants as well as any Qatar permanent residents), and for lucky volunteers, who helped make this year’s event such a success. 

Having connected Qatar to Turkey since 2006, Turkish Airlines has been a multi-year partner of the Ride of Champions. Mehmed Zingal, General Manager at Turkish Airlines spoke about his airline’s continued sponsorship of the event and said: “We would like to congratulate all participants for their ride and active participation at the Ride of Champions event - 2020.”

The ride covered a total distance of 101,589 kilometers, which is approximately 37 flights between Qatar and Turkish Airlines’ home of Istanbul. 

Turkish Airlines flies to more than 50 destinations within Turkey, and a handful of winners will get their chance to visit the destination of their choice in Turkey as an added celebration for finishing the Ooredoo Ride of Champions.

The chance to win has been extended to all Qatar Residents as well as the participants of this year’s event. Contestants may register by simply visiting @rocdoha on Instagram and following directions, as described on its social media accounts.
