Starting in May, Qatar Airways will operate flights between Doha and the Hungarian capital every day of the week with Boeing 787-8S (Dreamliner), Airportal.hu reports.
The Dreamliners are much quieter than previous generation aircraft, and the lower cabin pressure and higher humidity on board, which is in line with the lower altitude, means that long-haul flights are less stressful. According to the information available on the booking systems,
the Qatari airline will operate its new generation of wide-body aircraft on this route until the end of the summer schedule on October 26.
