From 7 May 2017, Qatar Airways is going to introduce a third daily non-stop route from Doha’s Hamad International Airport (HIA) to Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar, Bali. The airline offered its first direct service to Bali in 2014, later enhancing this to a twice daily frequency. Prior to this, Qatar Airways served the destination via a touchdown in Singapore. The new direct flight will operate with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, increasing its daily seat capacity by 35 per cent. The route is currently operated by a Boeing 777 and Airbus A330 wide-body aircraft on its existing double-daily offering. The additional flight is expected to be popular for those travelling from Qatar Airways’ extensive route network in Europe, the Middle East and the United States, as travel time to Bali will be significantly reduced with just one quick international transfer at Doha’s HIA.
