The 7th 787-9 for Qatar Airways is seen here landing at the old Doha International Airport as flight QR3254 after completing its second delivery flight for the airline, yes you read it right, as this aircraft (and 6 other QR 789s) got delivered two times, the first time was on the 28th of December 2019 when the aircraft was flown from Paine Field (PAE) to Hamad International Airport, spent there few hours, then flown back to Victorville (VCV) for storage, as QR's business class product (Qsuite) were not ready yet for the 787, after spending 4 months in Victorville the Qsuite were not yet ready but Qatar Airways decided to fly them again to Doha anyway. Unfortunately this happened at the middle of coronavirus pandemic with most airlines in the world cancelling most of their flights, and grounding nearly all of their fleet, as a result the aircraft got stored straight from delivery flight from Victorville (VCV) to the old Doha Airport which Qatar Airways is using now to store most of its fleet. This photo is dedicated to Hanan with special congrats.

As a result of the now-solved dispute between Qatar Airways and Airbus that resulted initially in the cancellation of Qatar’s A321 neo order, then in the delay of delivering the planes after reinstating the order following the settlement of the dispute, Qatar Airways turned to the rival, Boeing, which had some Russian S7 MAX 8s ready to be taken up due to the sanctions placed on Russia that was caused by its invasion of Ukraine, and they (Qatar Airways) picked them up and got the delivery of two so far (by the time of uploading this photo)
