Few days ago, Qatar Airways and Boeing they made an incredible seven delivery flights, but round trip between the United States and Doha.

To add to the news that few are positive these days for Boeing, one more curiosity occurred for the manufacturer and this time, for one of its most important operators.

Although this situation is not attributed to a Boeing failure, The fact is that the official delivery of seven aircraft was carried out Boeing 787 Dreamliner from Everett, Seattle on a direct flight to Doha round trip.

With flights that lasted close to 17 flight hours, generated significant noise on social networks AvGeeks and was reported by Flight Radar 24 in your accounts.

The fact that it goes without saying that it is strange, Above all, it generates a negative image for the airline industry where it increasingly seeks to be sustainable and friendly to the environment., what happened, It doesn't help this image that manufacturers, airlines and actors want to demonstrate.

What happened?

The fact is quite simple to explain, but very difficult to understand due to the economic and environmental background.

Qatar Airways had a contractual commitment with Boeing to accept these aircraft until the end of 2019, so it was necessary to receive them to avoid legal problems due to non-compliance.

A) Yes, Qatar received the planes as it normally would, but with the news that the new interiors or Q Suites are not yet ready to be installed in the order of 30 boeing aircraft 787 airline dreamliner.

Due to this fact and due to legal issues, customs and taxes, The seven flights had to land in Doha as a ferry or transfer flight, but a few hours later, take off again towards Victorville, California to be stored for a short period of time until the new interiors can be installed.

An understandable fact, But was it necessary on the environmental side and use of resources?? Surely the different actors had their reasons, but without a doubt it is a very special situation to analyze and leaves several open questions regarding the social-environmental responsibility of this particular case..

What do you think?

    In my opinion, BOEING should not have delivered the planes without their complete completion.,just to meet the delivery deadline.

  2. How much blah blah blah…to say that they did not receive the planes because they did not have the suites installed, Any buyer of any product would do the same., not receiving it for not complying with what was agreed.

  3. Well, big companies don't give a shit about the environmental impact they generate with their activities., It is clear they only see economic returns.
