Qatar Airways will launch its first Boeing 787 Dreamliner flights to India next month.
From 1 September 2013, the airline will commence daily Dreamliner services to both Delhi and Bengaluru, using the fuel-efficient 254-seat aircraft.
“We are delighted to introduce Qatar Airways’ Dreamliner on two of our important Indian routes,” said the Doha-based airline’s CEO, Akbar Al Baker.
“Our 787s provide a game-changing experience with specially designed interiors, spacious cabins and custom-made seats in both business and economy class. We are confident that our patrons flying to and from Delhi and Bangalore (Bengaluru) routes will luxuriate in the enhanced travel experience on-board the Qatar Airways’ Dreamliner,” he added.
Qatar Airways’ B787s offer 22 flat-bed business class seats, all with aisle access, and 232 seat in economy class, in a 3–3–3 layout.
The Delhi and Bengaluru services will mark the first time Qatar Airways has flown its Dreamliners to destinations in the Asia Pacific region.
Its eight B787s have so far flown to Dubai, London, Munich, Stockholm, Riyadh, Jeddah, Zurich and Frankfurt. The airline will also launch Dreamliner flights to Oslo and Copenhagen from September.
Qatar Airways has orders for 60 Dreamliners, making it one of the aircraft’s biggest customers.
