Qatar Airways has introduced its Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft to the Vienna route starting September 1. |
The increase in demand in the region and the airline’s steadfast commitment to the Austrian market has resulted in the introduction of the state-of-the-art Dreamliner onto the Vienna-Doha route bringing an additional capacity of 92% per week compared to the current A320.
Qatar Airways is the first airline to start with a scheduled 787 Dreamliner service to Vienna.

“After 10 years of operating to Vienna, we are delighted to introduce our flagship aircraft, the 787 Dreamliner, which will not only offer an increase in capacity to the route but will also redefine the in-flight experience of our passengers travelling to Doha and beyond,” said Qatar Airways Group chief executive officer Akbar al-Baker.
“Passengers from Austria can now fly to more than 140 destinations worldwide with Qatar Airways via the world-class Hamad International Airport in Doha.”
Qatar Airways has 254 custom-made seats across its 787 Business and Economy Class cabins with specially-designed interiors. Business Class is configured in a 1–2–1 set-up with 22 seats, while Economy has a 232 seating capacity in a 3–3–3 layout. All seats in Business Class are fully-reclinable.
The airline’s 787s are the world’s first fully-connected Dreamliners with wireless facilities for passengers to remain in touch with friends and colleagues on the ground through the Internet and SMS mobile texting across both Business and Economy cabins.
The 787 Dreamliners complement the ultra-luxurious customer service and experience that Qatar Airways delivers to its passengers.
“The first landing of the Qatar Airways Boeing 787 Dreamliner marks a highlight in the development of Vienna Airport. With this, one of the most modern aircraft in the world is now flying a regular service to Vienna. This capacity increase of Qatar Airways strengthens the role of Vienna Airport as a gateway to the Middle East,” says Mag Julian Jäger, member of the Management Board of Flughafen Wien AG.
Qatar Airways operates daily flights from Vienna connecting via Doha to popular cities in the Middle East, Asia Pacific, Africa, North America, and South America.
