Qatar Airways, the Official Airline Partner of the Dublin Horse Show, has partnered with influential Irish milliner Jennifer Wrynne to design a unique hat for Ladies Day at the Dublin Horse show.
Wrynne is an award-winning milliner specialising in hats and headpieces for special occasions, like Ladies Day at the races. Her creations have been worn by top Irish models, including Vogue Williams, Pippa O’Connor and Rosanna Davison. Wrynne’s specially made hat will be worn by Qatar Airways’ ambassador, Erin Holland, Miss World Australia 2013. Holland will fly with a videographer, from Sydney to Dublin with Qatar Airways to promote the airline’s new Dublin route.
Qatar Airways Senior Vice-President Corporate Communications and Marketing, Salam Al Shawa said: “Jennifer Wrynne’s hats and headpieces are imaginative and highly detailed, fusing classic design influences with modern Irish style. The Dublin Horse Show is one of the largest equestrian events in the world and pays homage to Ireland’s rich equine heritage. Qatar Airways is proud to be the Official Airline Sponsor of the event, now in its 144th year, and to use it as an opportunity to enhance its presence in the Irish market.
“Not only does our new Dublin—Doha route open up more than 150 exciting destinations to Irish passengers, it also brings Dublin and the rest of the Republic of Ireland closer to hundreds of thousands of international travellers all over the world. Through our global social media competition and brand ambassador Erin Holland, Qatar Airways is actively showcasing the best of what Ireland has to offer as both a holiday and business destination.”
Holland said: “I am incredibly excited to be travelling to Dublin with Qatar Airways for the Dublin Horse Show as their ambassador. Having Irish heritage I’m thrilled to finally have the chance to visit this beautiful country and celebrate Qatar Airways’ new route to Dublin.”
As part of the promotion, a Facebook competition open to participants in Australia, New Zealand, Qatar, Lebanon, the Philippines, South Africa and Jordan will award one winner with two return flights to Dublin and tickets to the Dublin Horse Show.
Qatar Airways commenced direct flights between Dublin and Doha in June. The route, operated daily by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, is the only one between Ireland and the Qatari capital. From Doha’s Hamad International Airport, Qatar Airways passengers flying from Dublin can connect to more than 150 destinations worldwide, including Tokyo, Bangkok, Auckland, Sydney and Beijing.
