    The flight duration to Qatar is influenced by the wind direction. Headwinds can extend the flight time, while tailwinds can shorten it.

      Almost. The answer is because of the jet streams, that always go west to east.

    The return flight is longer due to the wind direction, heading to auckland you are going with the wind making it quicker but heading back to Doha, you are going against the winds which makes the flight time slower.

    *The flight from Doha benefits from tailwinds. The return from Auckland faces headwinds slowing it down. Also, the flight paths for both flights may influence the flight duration.*

  • @totiaviation
    @totiaviation 3 месяца назад +2

    The duration of the flight to Qatar is heavily influenced by the wind direction. Headwinds that slow the aircraft down by forcing it from the front can extend the flight time, while tailwinds forcing it from the rear of the aircraft, like the aircraft is flying on a river stream of wind, can speed it up.

  • @inflightentertainment101
    @inflightentertainment101 3 месяца назад

    Headwinds and tailwinds impact a flight's duration. In the sky, there are winds and their directions, and aircraft have a limit as to how fast the air relative to the wings move. In a headwind, the speed of air, or airspeed, is greater than a tailwind, which blows in the opposite direction (same direction the aircraft is going) assuming the ground speed (the speed of the ground relative to the aircraft) stays the same. Airplanes want to maintain a certain airspeed when flying, and unless the wind direction doesn't change, the ground speed must change so the airspeed changes accordingly. The return flight from Auckland will have to fly with a headwind, and then the ground speed must decrease. Now it will take the aircraft longer to fly this distance. Aviation is very interesting ❤😃!

  • @michaelgask
    @michaelgask 3 месяца назад

    Is the difference in flight time due to the earth's rotation causing wind patterns to move from the west to east? I'm not sure, but this is even noticeable in a 3-4 hour flight, that it is always a bit quicker going east. Such a great video. If the wind is in the right direction, sometimes this exact flight flies directly over my house in Auckland on its way to Doha. Now I know more about it.

    ✈️ EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED with @QatarAirways
    Traveled from KWI-DOH-CAI on June 2nd and Qatar Airways lost my checked bag. It's been over 4 weeks and no resolution.
    They gave me a claim number but no follow up. I've emailed and called repeatedly with no real updates or help finding my bag.
    It's embarrassing to have to beg an airline for basic customer service after they misplaced my property. Not to mention the financial costs to replace everything that was in the bag.
    As one of the top airlines in the world, I expected better than empty promises and run around. At this point I just want my belongings back or fair compensation. But the lack of concern or accountability shown is unacceptable.
    Other travelers BEWARE - if your bag goes missing with Qatar, don't expect it to be priority. Learn from my expensive mistake and avoid this airline if you value your bags arriving intact!
