    This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!

      I had a pouch from Bric’s for both SFO-DOH and DOH-SFO last year. But the amenities inside was not as good as the diptyque stuff you had here. Btw did QR stops serving Laurent Perrier Rose in both your flights? I got hooked on that stuff since my flights with them last year, and buy it sometimes on my dimes to reminisce those flights. Their rose substitute here doesnt look shabby at all tho. I think QR has the 2nd best business class champagne among all airlines with 3 offerings including the non-alcoholic one. I think they are only behind Eva with Vueve Cliquot La Grande Dame.

    • @tfft
      @tfft  Год назад

      On both of my flights and in the lounge they were serving Charles Heidsieck Rose- I’m more of a coffee snob than a wine snob though so as long as it tastes good and doesn’t give me a champagne headache I’m all for it 😂 And thank you very much for the support 🙏

    This is the first time I have come across your channel, and it certainly won't be the last video I watch. I had the pleasure of Qatar's business class before they introduced the Qsuites, so I am hoping to hop back on a flight in the next couple of years to sample it. Thank you for an informative, humorous and engaging review. I did have a chuckle about the pillow fight! Liked and subscribed :)
    Also, you mentioned about the crew replacing the paper on the toilet... I felt so embarrassed; I contracted a rare bacterial disease from eating undercooked seafood. I wasn't in any pain, but was probably carrying out my payload about 20-30 times a day (I wish I was joking) - watching the crew do this multiple times during the flight was certainly embarrassing!

    Great authentic video, I’m from the Philly area and fly to Doha and Dubai 3-4 times a year and my airline of choice been Qatar airlines for the past 8 years and all business class. I avoid flying from PHL because they have the worst customs agents in the US service and I prefer flying out of JFK even though it adds about 3 hours to my travel which I’m willing to sacrifice.
    I took my family on vacation in 2022 and 2021 using Qatar airlines and cashed in some miles and we loved the quads center seats in the Qsuites.

      I use iPhones… so much larger setup than a GoPro lol. Depends on the airline. Some, I know the policies, I just put it up.

    A few airlines to check out when traveling Asia in business (I live in Asia and fly often) are EVA Air, Malaysia Airlines (and 777-300ER checking one of the throne seats on the right side), Garuda, Starlux (pretty new), Hawaiian (LA to Osaka, layover in Honolulu)... Also India is worth a trip with many local airlines and easy trips to Bangladesh, Nepal (scary place to land between the mountains), etc... Happy to point to some interesting routes / airlines.

    Excellent review - as good or better than many of the "household name" reviewers. You mentioned the window seats that have table towards window and seat toward aisle have a larger table and larger cushion. What "cushion" are you referring to - the footwell, the seat width itself?

    These QSuites look quite nice, but I definitely prefer the side seats that are next to the aisle rather than the window because I’m tall. On the seats next to the window, I finding getting up and out from the bed position really tough because of the bulge from the seat in front. The access is much wider when you are seating next to the door, and for someone who is sensitive to space, feel a lot less confining to me than those where your shoulder is so close to the fuselage.

    • @tfft
      @tfft  Год назад

      Sure, besides being closer to the window, I prefer the window side seats because the aisle side seats have a bit less shoulder space when sitting due to the curve of the Qsuite doors. More noticeable on the A350 than the 777 thought. Thanks for watching 🩴

    Great video! 3 weeks ago I had the pleasure of flying from Seattle to Doha aboard a Qatar 777-300 in QSuites. I was flying solo, so I had a window seat. I agree with pretty much everything you said and would give nearly identical marks. The comfort, hospitality, food, everything was wonderful. Upon arrival into Doha, I made my way to the Al Mourjan lounge where I took a nice, hot shower (my flight was almost 15 hours). The lounge is huge and luxurious with superb food. Since I had an 8-hour layover before my 5-hour flight to Kathmandu, I eventually left the lounge and found the Sleep N Fly cubicles and settled in for a very quiet and comfortable 3 hours. The Doha airport is huge and crowded and noisy, so the quiet solitude was worth it. I am looking forward to doing it again in a few months!

    Very nice review, though add me to the list of people who aren't particularly enamored with the QSuite. The QSuites have a relatively narrow seat and the seat is pressed right up the wall, so little room for one's shoulder and arm. The 'suite' aspect of the set seemed a bit gimmicky as anyone walking by taller than 5 feet tall can look down into your suite. That said, I found other aspects of the business class service to be very good.

      I typically go into long haul flights with a low expectation for actually being able to sleep- with that in mind, I do really enjoy the suites (but much prefer them on the 777 vs the A350). But, if I really needed solid sleep, I'm with you. Thanks for watching.

    Just a constructive suggestion. On these reviews, it's probably best to document the business lounge of the airline with which you're flying rather than the Centurion Lounge. Even if you want to end up at Centurion, at least go to the airline's lounge and document what to expect. Also, long segments of take-off, etc., aren't really helpful when someone's trying to pick an airline. We've all seen take-offs and landings before. The service, lounges, food, seats, and bathrooms are more of interest. Otherwise, great video!

    I did a 15hr long haul trip from mnl to mxp with connection in tpe back in February. As I wanted to fly business, I spent hours on end over business class reviews and I came across Qatar Airways too. How is it even relevant to review qsuites when Qatar air has so much diversity in their fleet that there is no assurance that your plane won't be changed with another that doesn't have the qsuite product? Out of 4 business class products I have flown in, Lufthansa, Ethiopian, Turkish (old 777 configuration) and Eva air I can solemnly swear that Eva air blows the doors off all three. It wasn't only the cocoon seat, but also amazing personalised service, 5 course delicious meal, Jason Wu pyjamas (yes! Pyjamas where other high profile airlines even have the amenity kit optional these days) and overall feeling of being pampered throughout the flight.

    I may give Qatar a try on a 5th freedom, if they have any. Not sure if I've any interest in travelling to or through the country

      They’ve never been big on 5th freedoms. Before Covid they did SNG-PNH, GRU-EZE and Djibouti-Mogadishu… all three suspended at the moment. Would love to know how that latter one did tbh lol. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    QR doesn't really have to worry about shareholder value since it's a branch of the goverment. It's primary aim is to be an advertisement for the country.

    I think your seat was malfunctioning. Both times I've flown Q Suite the bed was 100% completely flat.

      Had the same problem on my next flight from DOH-SIN… also tried it on an empty center seat on the Philly flight. All of them the same (on the A350 was a touch flatter, but the same problem overall). Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    A meticulous video with conversion between inch and metre. As I live in Vietnam, I am not familiar with inch 😂
