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.
I flew on QR-921 from AKL-DOH and QR-610 and it was the best experience of my life the economy class food tasted like first class and INSHALLAH I will fly with Qatar airways again!😊
*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.*
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.
The flight duration towards Doha is longer as Headwinds are the predominant wind, resulting in a lower GS. I captain a 380 flight between the UAE and AKL, man, it's a long one.
Having recently flown Qatar 23 hours out from the U.S. to Asia and then 24 hours back -- fortunately in business class -- I know this is a spectacular airline. And yes, Doha is incredibly beautiful from the air. I hope someday to see the city at ground level too.
I am a new subscriber, greeting from Algeria. I travel to China two times with Qatar Airways business class. Thank you for your comfortable trip and excellent service.
I have taken this flight several times over the past few years, but have not made it in the new Airbus jet. I’m sure it is an upgrade from the Boeing 777 extended range which was getting very long in the tooth. The service on board, however, was always first rate.
The flight time to Qatar is influenced by Jet streams and they are fast flowing, narrow air currents found in the atmospheres of some planets, including Earth. They are primarily found in the upper levels of the atmosphere and flow from west to east.
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 ❤😃!
I have flown from/to Doha and Auckland many times and it’s long but smooth flight. Only thing I hate about is Doha Airport, it’s small and don’t have gates so planes are parked in tarmac
The return is longer because the winds from the WEST go from WEST TO EAST and then from Auckland you are going from east to west so you will have a headwind
✈️ 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!
Yup! They made a couple of mistakes in their last upload. For example, the video they used landing into Auckland airport, wasn't even close to looking like landing at Auckland airport. So good on them for fixing those errors.
I flew on that flight in March this year Auckland to Doha, grueling but Qatar are a good arline so it wasn't too bad, I noticed that for most of the journey the window blinds were down! Odd!
The inernet says that qatar Airways is best. I'd rather be in qatar Airways than Pegasus. The boarding music is great! The safety video is funny! I have been in qatar Airways in 2023 June/July. My guest is a flight attendant. I like to experience qatar Airways again! I like Arabic rice, but i can't go back to qatar. So I wanted to go to qatar I think my dad is gonna use qatar Airways. I really love qatar, So if you wanna try qatar Airways Like cornice and Festival. Go to qatar Airways! Love qatar from bosnia.
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.

I think that the outbound flight to Oakland takes less time because the plane flies in the same direction of the Earth's rotation, and the attractive force of the Earth is less strong when the plane travels in the same direction. It's almost like the effect of a catapult.
The worst airline in the world where they do not allow you to modify travel details, and the only solution is to cancel the ticket and deduct more than half of the amount. Based on their employees' instructions, I changed the ticket to a voucher, but the voucher had the same previous information and cannot be used. Unfortunately, it has expired and I lost nearly a thousand dollars. I hope everyone sees you for who you really are.
The flight duration to Qatar is influenced by the wind direction. Headwinds can extend the flight time, while tailwinds can shorten it.
Whaaaaaaaaat?!!!! Really?!?!!? No way
Yup it does
Tailwinds means more cruising speed right? 🤔
Yes.I agree with you. Wind resistances.
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.

My daughter works for Qatar Airways as a cabin crew member and she recently worked on this flight.
Well thanks to your daughter and her colleagues for the brilliant level of service they consistently deliver 😎
The return flight is longer because the crew has been eating a lot during the 2-day layover, causing the plane to weight more and fly slower
A few kilograms is a small addition compared to the tons of fuel. Think again
@@Emery21 How did you not understand it was a joke? Lol
S💀💀

*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.*
What a marvellous video, thanks for letting us have a glimpse of this exciting yet responsible life of Pilots.
The flight time changes as the head wind and the tail wind play a major role in determining the speed of the aircraft
I have the privilege of flying economy with Qatar Airways at the end of august, I absolutely cannot wait. 😎
Love this airline, country and airport
Love you From Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️🇧🇭
Best airline ever. Loved flying business class to the Maldives from Houston. They treat you like royalty. I also love the nod to The Hobbit at 0:28 ❤
Absolutely love Qatar Airways 🇶🇦 Love using them for our channels travels 🥰 Top class service and food always

"There and back again"!
I've flown on QR921 to Doha and then onto London during Covid 2020, 777-200. As much as I like flying, that was brutal!

Did all the crew members have any time to look around Auckland?
@@faithingley7683 We do occasionally. (i actually grew up in Auckland so I like to take the crew around) Sometimes sleep is all we want though!
@@IfinallyvanquishedfinderOut of curiosity are you based in Dubai or in NZ
@@kiwirailtrains8651 I'm a kiwi, so my family is mostly in NZ, but I'm most often based in the UAE.
@@IfinallyvanquishedfinderOh wow nice
I always flew on Qatar Airways it is very professional from check-in counter to destination airport out... ❤
Do you hate non muslims
It is the wind and a upper atmosphere affect that is called jet streams
What a great video! We need more

As it spins clockwise your moveing with the planet,and as you back your moveing against it.its like swimming upstream
Haha
I’m about to fly Auckland to Doha in 2 months. Can’t wait
I am a new subscriber, greeting from Algeria.
I travel to China two times with Qatar Airways business class.
Thank you for your comfortable trip and excellent service.
The return flight is longer than the first one because of the wind direction. So on the return flight they'd be facing a lot of headwinds
the tailwind makes them faster going to nz, because the wind comes from east to west. and the headwind makes them slower
I flew this both legs in December 23 and January 24 . Great service and experience even in Economy
There and back again!! Bilbo Baggins!
I have taken this flight several times over the past few years, but have not made it in the new Airbus jet. I’m sure it is an upgrade from the Boeing 777 extended range which was getting very long in the tooth. The service on board, however, was always first rate.
thank you for being such an important part of my learning journey! ️
The globe is turning.the return journey is just the opposite of turning.
QATAR 🇶🇦💕
Qatar, minha PRECIOSA 💎🥂👏🏻🇧🇷
There should also be an insight into what the cabin crew does on such long flights.
Sometimes we don’t even sit or sip water once during ULH flights
Enjoyed the flight ❤
Not only for this airline, but winds are headed from west towards east, that is why the flights against wind takes longer.
Excellent video. Very interesting and informative.
I love QatarAirways
the wonderful magic of jet steams!!
I flew with Qatar Airways I'm telling you had th best experience 😊
Because there can be weather conditions checking the aircraft for damages and tickets?
Westbound flights are longer because of the jet streams that head eastbound! So the eastbound flights get a boost.
If you fly one way over the curve it’s longer , flying back it’s flat ,it’s shorter !
The wind direction changes so the aircraft has more headwind on the way back

Jet stream is the answer why the eastbound flight is faster than the westbound flight😎

please just reply to this
Yup!

So good on them for fixing those errors.
@@JustinHayvice yea, they should fly to my hometown of christchurch
It’s because of the head winds, on the way back
Whos also here from tiktok because they were curious and interested 😂😂
I flew on that flight in March this year Auckland to Doha, grueling but Qatar are a good arline so it wasn't too bad, I noticed that for most of the journey the window blinds were down! Odd!
Return flight benefited the equatorial easterly jet streams?

Go to qatar Airways!
Love qatar from bosnia.
Maybe it's because of the earth rotation which can be parallel to the flight traveling direction
Jetstreams of wind causes GS higher given same TAS depending on wind direction?...
outbound is longer than inboud due to the wind flowing from west to east qatar to new zealand and plane is flying opposite wind
Because while returning the air against the direction of travel. There is air resistance
The earths rotation causes the difference in flight duration
The return flight is always longer the the outbound flight due to the prevailing head winds.
Ok, now do one for FAs ☺️

Winds, and the rotation of the earth changes the flight duration
Tailwind component going, headwind component coming.
Basically due to Earth's rotation or the effect of Coriolis effect. Aircrafts travel faster from west to east
The flight back depends on air traffic and the time of day
Why did you reupload this?
They made a couple of mistakes in their last upload.
For example, the video they used landing into Auckland airport, wasn't even close to looking like landing at Auckland airport.
What goes into piloting this long flight is... a lot of coffee! ;)
The return flight is longer because of the earth rotation.
Headwind in flying to the east makes flight longer
I think that the outbound flight to Oakland takes less time because the plane flies in the same direction of the Earth's rotation, and the attractive force of the Earth is less strong when the plane travels in the same direction. It's almost like the effect of a catapult.
The wind and rotation of the earth.
Flying East to West is always a longer flight time for any routes
Its longer on the way back because of the winds caused by the jet stream by the way i would really like to be a pilot for qatar airways
They check every RA Callout?! Crazy..
Thanks for information end beautiful video end professional stuff !I do fly all time with Qatar….. Ther best airline Qatar
Aggersnamoni, minha paixão Qatar, meu sonho poder trabalhar nesta nação 💃🏻🥂💎💙🇧🇷 sou cabin crew, cuidadora de idosos e crianças, estou a disposição 💎🥂
@@celesteg.3810you can work for airlines if you interested the best airline in wolds if you are young ! Wish you all best luck Aggers
A350-1000❤
it takes longer bc they are flying so fast that time dilation occurs.
Tailwind to Headwind
I really really want to fly for Qatar Airways
It's a very tuff, Stranious, and painful profession. No one will understand until they join this profession.😊
The return trip takes longer because of the jet stream.
Deve ser uma "profissão " mto difícil! São responsáveis pelo avião....mas tb pelos passageiros!
Uma falha....pode ser fatal!
É raro! Felismente!🙏
Earth’s rotation
17 hours due to wind moving opposite of jet stream!
Why is it longer? If not the winds, maybe the coriolis effect.
Does another crew fly the plane back upon landing? Or is it just parked at the airport 4 days?
Why did they skip the part when the pilots have fun with the flight attendants? 😂
Because flying through different time zones
It takes longer to return since you are flying against the earth's rotation
Headwind dominant route, not to mention nasty jet streams smashing ya in the face
Wind is the answer

Yep, faced the same issue
i feel like this is an issue they fixed or a one off issue or whatever, i have heard many glowing reviews from many
01:59 you are bounding east, that s a sunrise not a sunset
is this created by Wendover Prod?
Earth's rotation
It's longer due to the winds.
