由于燃油成本高昂以及伊朗战争的持续影响，卡塔尔航空公司已停用了其所有的空客A-330客机，并将部分飞行员调派至卢旺达航空公司（RwandAir）。目前，该航空公司的航班数量减少，客运能力也有所下降，但计划在未来五年内通过引进138架新飞机来实现业务增长和机队扩张。
Qatar Airways has retired its last Airbus A-330 jets and seconded some pilots to RwandAir due to high fuel costs and disruptions from the ongoing Iran war. The airline operates fewer flights and reduced passenger capacity, but plans to resume growth and expand its fleet with 138 new aircraft over five years. Qatar Airways supports pilot secondments to RwandAir to maintain flying skills while continuing a major fleet renewal with 410 planes on order through the 2030s.
据两位知情人士透露，以及路透社核实的数据，卡塔尔航空公司之所以采取这一举措，是为了让飞行员在卢旺达航空公司保持飞行技能，同时继续推进机队更新计划——到2030年代，该公司计划订购共计410架新飞机。自伊朗战争爆发以来，航空燃油价格翻了一番，这加速了全球范围内老旧飞机的淘汰进程。
AI generated LONDON – Qatar Airways has retired its last Airbus A-330 passenger jet and seconded some pilots to Rwanda’s flag carrier as the prolonged Iran war disrupts Gulf aviation and accelerates the global phase-out of older jets, according to two people with knowledge of the matter and data reviewed by Reuters.
这两位人士还指出，卡塔尔航空公司曾在2025年从阿曼航空公司（Oman Air）租用了4架空客A-330宽体客机，并原计划将这些飞机继续使用至2026年，但这些飞机从未正式投入运营。如今，卡塔尔航空公司的A-330机队已全部退役。其中一架A-330客机早在2026年初就被卢旺达航空公司收购。卡塔尔航空公司与卢旺达航空公司有着长期的合作关系；据透露，部分飞行员自战争爆发以来就再未执行过商业飞行任务，他们被调派到了卢旺达航空公司工作。
The move is the latest sign of the impact of a doubling of jet fuel prices since the war began, ending an industry-wide scramble for older jets to meet post-Covid travel demand. Qatar Airways leased four Airbus wide-body A-330 jets from Oman Air in 2025 and planned to keep flying them through 2026, but the aircraft never entered service, the people said. The carrier has now fully retired its A-330 fleet. One of the A-330s was acquired earlier in 2026 by Rwandan flag carrier RwandAir. Qatar Airways has longstanding ties to the airline and the people said a group of pilots, some of whom had not flown commercially since the start of the war, have been seconded to RwandAir. The secondments and details of the fleet retirements have not previously been reported.
此前，关于这些飞行员调派的具体情况以及机队退役的详细信息并未被公开报道。卡塔尔航空公司的一位发言人表示，该公司定期对机队进行评估并更换老旧飞机、引入更高效的新飞机属于常规操作。发言人补充称，公司在未来五年内预计将接收138架新飞机。
A Qatar Airways spokesperson said it was normal for the airline to regularly review its fleet, “retiring older aircraft and introducing newer, more efficient aircraft as they are delivered”. In the next five years it expects to receive 138 new aircraft, the spokesperson added.
根据公司数据，该航空公司运营着由空客和波音组成的混合机队，拥有239架客机和30架货机。截至3月，A-330占客机总数的7%。
The carrier operates a mixed Airbus and Boeing fleet of 239 passenger jets and 30 freighters, according to the company. A-330s made up 7 per cent of the passenger total, as of March, according to company data.
“一群卡塔尔航空A-330飞行员正被提供一个自愿的短期外派机会，前往卢旺达航空，”卡塔尔航空发言人表示，并补充说该计划为飞行员提供了宝贵的飞行机会，同时支持了两家航空公司的运营需求，但未透露外派将持续多久。
“A group of Qatar Airways A-330 pilots are being offered a voluntary short-term secondment opportunity with RwandAir,” the Qatar Airways spokesperson said, adding the scheme offered valuable flying opportunities for pilots while supporting the operational requirements of both airlines, without saying how long the secondment would last.
随着战争持续，成本飙升 战争已在全球范围内影响航空公司，尤其是在2月28日美以空袭伊朗后，中东航空枢纽迪拜和多哈受影响尤为严重，尽管航班量已恢复至接近战前水平。
Costs spike as war continues The war has impacted airlines globally but particularly the Middle East aviation hubs of Dubai and Doha following the Feb 28 US-Israeli strikes on Iran, although flight volumes have recovered to near pre-war levels.
分析师表示，通过停飞燃油效率较低且机龄较老的A-330机队，卡塔尔航空正在控制航空燃油成本。在当前高油价下，停放飞机比运营飞机要便宜得多。
By grounding the less fuel-efficient and older A-330 fleet, Qatar is containing jet fuel costs. Parking the planes is substantially cheaper than flying them at current high oil prices, analysts said.
根据飞行追踪数据，卡塔尔航空从阿曼航空租赁的其余飞机停放在西班牙特鲁埃尔或多哈，近几个月来一直处于停放状态，因为伊朗战争持续拖延。停放在多哈的两架A-330是卡塔尔航空从飞机租赁商Jetran租赁的，将于10月归还给出租方。
The remaining aircraft Qatar Airways leased from Oman Air are parked either in Teruel, Spain, or in Doha, according to flight tracking data, and have remained parked in recent months, as the Iran war has dragged on. Two of the A-330s parked in Doha, which Qatar is leasing from aircraft lessor Jetran, will be returned to the lessor in October.
客运运力下降 分析师表示，卡塔尔航空运营的已停产A-330等老旧飞机本应已退役，但因制造延迟和疫情后旅行需求旺盛，服役时间比预期更长。
Passenger capacity falls Analysts said older planes like the out-of-production A-330 operated by Qatar Airways would have been phased out by now, but have remained in service longer than expected due to manufacturing delays and high post-Covid travel demand.
如今，油价飙升使得运营老旧喷气式飞机吸引力下降，根据追踪全球机队动态的Cirium Ascend基于七天平均值计算的数据，全球A330-200和A330-300的飞行运营较2025年9月下降了约12%。
Now, surging oil prices have made it less attractive to operate older jets, with global A330-200 and A330-300 flight operations down by about 12 per cent from September 2025, according to seven-day averages calculated by Cirium Ascend, which tracks global fleet movements.
卡塔尔的运营难题因海湾航空公司自战争爆发以来面临的广泛中断，以及部分中转旅客流失至竞争对手枢纽而进一步加剧。
Qatar’s operational headache has been compounded by widespread disruption to Gulf carriers since the war began and the loss of some transit passengers to competing hubs.
“中东航空公司因当地空域使用限制而减少飞机执飞，”IBA咨询主管丹·泰勒在9月初表示。
“Middle East carriers are not flying the aircraft as much because of restrictions on the use of airspace there,” IBA’s head of consulting Dan Taylor said earlier in September.
根据Cirium Ascend的数据，截至本月，卡塔尔航空七天平均可用座位公里数——行业衡量客运运力的标准指标——较去年同期下降10%，阿联酋航空降幅相似，而全球行业运力持平。
As of this month, Qatar Airways’ seven-day average available seat kilometres – the industry’s standard measure of passenger-carrying capacity – was 10 per cent lower than a year ago, according to Cirium Ascend, compared with a similar decline at Emirates and flat global industry capacity.
Cirium表示，卡塔尔航空平均航班量较去年同期减少12%，投入飞机减少4%，但预计将在2027年前恢复运力和网络增长。
Qatar Airways is on average operating 12 per cent fewer flights versus a year ago, and using 4 per cent fewer planes, although it is on track to return to capacity and network growth by 2027, Cirium said.
机队更新计划 虽然短期需求有所疲软，但卡塔尔航空仍预计区域动荡缓解后增长将恢复，并将很快开始为新型飞机招募飞行员，该公司表示。
Fleet renewal plans While short-term demand has weakened, Qatar still expects growth to resume once regional disruption eases and will soon start recruiting pilots for newer aircraft, it said.
发言人表示，向卢旺达航空派遣十余名员工将确保受过驾驶A330培训的飞行员能继续执飞。基于与其他航空公司的国际合作伙伴关系，航空公司有时会为飞行员提供外派机会。
The secondment of just over a dozen staff to RwandAir would ensure pilots trained to fly A-330s can continue flying, the spokesperson said. Airlines do sometimes offer secondments to their pilots based on international partnerships with other carriers.
与卡塔尔航空有代码共享协议的卢旺达航空未回应置评请求。该公司在8月于X平台发帖称，已收到预期五架A330喷气式飞机中的首架。
RwandAir, which has a codeshare agreement with Qatar, did not respond to a request for comment. It said in a post on X in August that it had received the first of five expected A-330 jets.
运营全球最繁忙枢纽之一、主要与迪拜本土的阿联酋航空竞争的卡塔尔航空，持续接收新飞机。公司数据显示，2026年其分别从空客和波音接收了两架大型宽体喷气式飞机。
Qatar Airways, which runs one of the world’s busiest hubs and competes mainly with Dubai-based Emirates, continues to take delivery of new jets. It has received two large wide-body jets each from Airbus and Boeing in 2026, company data shows.
卡塔尔航空发言人表示，在2026年9月至2027年底期间，该航空公司计划退役六架飞机并接收19架新飞机。
The Qatar Airways spokesperson said that between September 2026 and the end of 2027, the carrier was planning six aircraft exits and 19 new plane deliveries.
为实现延伸至2030年代的增长目标，该航空公司目前共有410架飞机向波音和空客订购，其中包括2025年5月美国总统特朗普访问该酋长国期间宣布的160架。
To meet growth objectives stretching into the 2030s, the airline has a total of 410 planes still on order from Boeing and Airbus, including 160 announced during a visit to the emirate by US President Donald Trump in May 2025.
