Of course, we’re not going to skim past the fact that students may be nervous about travelling during the Covid-19 pandemic. Qatar Airways has pulled out all stops to provide a safe and hygienic environment for both passengers and crew. 

Think industrial-sized HEPA air purifiers and ultraviolet disinfection methods to demolish viruses in their aircraft. You’ll also find their crew fully donned in PPE and a touch-free technology for passengers to access onboard entertainment using their mobile phones or tablets.
