Qatar Airways has confirmed that it will operate the
Airbus A350-1000, equipped with the airline’s new
Qsuite, on flights to and from Changi
Airport in Singapore from 1 November 2018.
The aircraft will also be introduced
daily to Tokyo’s Haneda Airport from 1 January 2019.
The two
cities will be the first of Qatar Airways’ growing Far East
network to welcome the ultramodern A350-1000 equipped with Qsuite.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, Mr.
Akbar Al
Baker, said, “We are tremendously excited to bring the world’s
most technologically advanced passenger aircraft fitted with
revolutionary Qsuite Business Class experience to our loyal customers in Singapore and Tokyo. The launch of the A350-1000 on
these routes is a fulfilment of the promise we make to our passengers to provide them the finest experience available in the
skies. We are confident that our A350-1000 flights and Qsuite cabins will be highly sought after, and look forward to bringing
them to even more gateways throughout the Far East.”
Two of
Singapore’s triple-daily A350-900 services will gradually
transition to the A350-1000 starting from 1 November 2018. The
route is expected to be served entirely with the A350-1000 by
April 2019.
Qatar Airways’ A350-1000 features 327 seats
across two cabins – 46 Qsuite Business Class seats and 281
18-inch seats in Economy Class (pictured).
Business Class passengers will be treated to the Qsuite
experience, featuring the industry’s first-ever double-bed in
business class. Sliding panels allow passengers in adjoining seats
to transform their space into private cabins so passengers can work, socialise and dine
together during the flight.
