My COVID-19 Travel Experience from Dhaka to Vancouver with Qatar Airways

by Shermana Azam

We all are stuck in different countries unable to travel for business trips, family trip, or going back home. Now we have finally got a few airlines arranged with lot of safety precaution in this COVID-19 pandemic and Qatar airways is one of those airlines who has arranged these safety precautions.

I recently traveled on Qatar airways and I am sharing a my COVID-19 travel experience from Dhaka to Vancouver. Traveling in this pandemic is tough because you will be going through lots of airport sections and people before boarding the plane. I was a bit stressed about our Dhaka airport since so much was going on else where. But to my surprise it was okay. Passengers were all wearing mask and gloves, maintaining their social distances and following what needs to be done. I upgraded my ticket to travel comfortably which was really rewarding. Qatar Airways provided us with the face shield to wear on flight. Our flight was from Dhaka to Doha to Montreal to Vancouver, BC. A very long flight so you need all the precautions to stay safe. It looked strange as everyone was sleeping with masks on, but there were no other choices. Thankful to Allah, we reached Vancouver without any problems. So anybody traveling now make sure you carry all the important items with you.
