The Qatar Airways Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner carries 254 passengers across Business + Economy. Power and Wi-Fi are available on this aircraft. Seats are rated below, so you can see which have the legroom, the window alignment and the quiet — and which sit next to a galley or lavatory.

Yes — Qatar Airways operates a fully flat-bed Business product on the 787-8 in a one-two-one layout. Every seat converts to a flat horizontal bed and every seat has direct aisle access, which means no climbing over a neighbour for a midnight lavatory visit. It is a competitive long-haul Business product.
The Boeing 787 pressurises to a lower effective altitude than older jets and maintains higher cabin humidity, which typically means less fatigue on long flights. The larger windows let in more natural light, and the slightly wider fuselage gives a small but real increase in seat width versus the older 777. Three-three-three Economy is still a full plane, but the airframe itself makes the journey easier.
Middle seats in the centre triple (D, E, F columns) are the tightest — you have a stranger on each side with no elbow room to spare. The rearmost rows near the aft galley and toilets are also worth sidestepping on long flights. Exit row seats are among the best for legroom but check whether the seat ahead of your row has full recline capability.
