By Samawade

i would like to meet a friend who will be using Hammad International Airport as a transit and will remain there for around 3 to 4 hours. Please advice me if there are procedure/ways to go inside the Airport and meet.

3 - 4 hours is too short for someone to come outside the airport, meet you and get back inside all the way to the airplane without missing the next flight.

If your friend is travelling in Qatar Airways , they were offering Free city tours (about a month back not sure still it's there or not) for guys who had ample time between there two flights, he needs to check at HIA if he can get one, then he can come outside and you can meet him when he is doing Doha City tour.
