FE Report
Qatar Airways has recently upgraded the aircraft on its highly-popular Doha-Kuala Lumpur-Bali route to an Airbus A330 offering its passengers in every seat with fully interactive audio and video entertainment system.
All seven weekly services between Doha and the Malaysian capital will be served with the long-range aircraft non-stop. The aircraft will also operate on all four weekly flights on the Kuala Lumpur-Bali sector, a route launched in March this year.
Qatar Airways launched flights to Malaysia in December 2001 with three flights a week and progressively increased capacity to the current frequency of daily services.
The Doha-Kuala Lumpur route had been operated with an Airbus A300, which is gradually being phased out of the airline's fleet. Qatar Airways is now using two aircraft types on the route - an A330-200 featuring 22 Business Class seats and 259 in Economy, as well as an A330-300 with 30 Business Class seats and 275 in Economy.
The upgraded Airbus A330s feature up to 53 more seats than the Airbus A300.
