Qatar Airways QR701 flies the ultra-long-haul corridor from Doha to New York. Conditions change hour to hour — view the live forecast for your departure date.
View live forecastThe route crosses mid-latitudes where the polar jet can influence flight conditions, though exposure is shorter than on genuine long-haul crossings. A large portion of the flight crosses open ocean (Indian Ocean), where upper-level conditions are generally smoother than over continental terrain.
Calmest season: May–September. The North Atlantic track sees its strongest jet-stream activity from November through February, when winds commonly exceed 150 kt and clear-air turbulence is more frequent.
