British Airways Direct Non-Stop Flight Durban London – Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner

The aircraft on this route is an extremely modern design with new technological features. Some add that environmental impact contributes to customer well-being during the flight and reduces jet lag which are as follows:

• The design allows for higher pressurisation and more moisture in the cabin air.
• New efficient aircraft wider than other plans making it more spacious for passengers
• Smoother Ride Technology features “smart sensors” that detect turbulence and are designed to reduce motion sickness eight-fold.
• The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner has larger windows.
