Qatar Airways has announced an expansion of its Boeing 787 services to Europe with the new aircraft being deployed on three Scandinavian routes.
Qatar Airways and the Doha airport are popular among the Scandinavians as many use the airport as a gateway to Southeast Asia.
The Doha-based carrier will launch 787 flights to the Swedish capital Stockholm on August 1, followed by both Copenhagen and Oslo, capital cities of Denmark and Norway, on September 1.
Qatar Airways operates daily flights to each of the three Scandinavian capitals, with a total weekly capacity of 21 services.
CEO Akbar Al Baker said: “Our Scandinavian routes have grown in stature and importance since we began flying to the region in 2007.
“I am delighted that our Dreamliners will be introduced to Stockholm, Copenhagen and Oslo very soon providing our passengers with an unparalleled level of service and comfort to and from Scandinavia.”
Qatar Airways has 254 custom-made seats across its 787 Business and Economy Class cabins.
