| The Dreamliner. |
I was very fortunate to experience the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner by Qatar Airways, flying from Doha to Dubai. Since taking delivery of its first 787 four weeks ago, Qatar Airways has been flying the aircraft between Doha and both Dubai and Kuwait, and has already made a debut on the flight London-Dubai.

| A dream above the clouds... |
 |
| Super high tech... |
Select Collection has a very attractive business class rate with Qatar from Stockholm to Dubai at the moment approx 13000 SEK, which gives you the opportunity to fly first class in the Dreamliner between Doha and Dubai.
As Qatar flies so many times between Doha and Dubai every day, the Dreamliner will not be possible each time. But when flying from Dubai to Stockholm at night you enjoy the 787, and from Stockholm to Dubai in the afternoon you also connect with the 787.
Qatar have ordered 60 Dreamliners in total, and flies with 3 right now on the route London and Dubai. From Feb 13 also to Perth.

| ...and first class delights |
Our flight was 47 min between Doha and Dubai so obviously there was not much time to try the full menu but there will be next time as Qatar is planning to have many new machines on long haul routes.

| Fresh and healthy |
 |
| Great crew |
Big screen, wifi, GSM and spacious table for work and meals – USB, MP3 and laptop power:
 |
| A whopper screen and space for work, food and play |
And its not all high tech - Dreamliner has also got place for romance:
 |
A separate small section (2 seats) in first class
for honeymooners |
What have I left out? Quieter, smoother, more spacious, more vision, kinder and cleaner air…
In short – a traveller's Dream!
