    The crew of the Qatar airways are such lovely friendly people, When my son was almost 3 years old he was tired and it was way past his bedtime, he cried alot and it took a while for him to settle down, they were so helpful and compassionate. They could see how flustered/emotional/teary I was .. they tried their best to help me calm him down, when he finally went to sleep they checked on me again to see how I was doing. It was a long 12 hour flight, and they spoiled him with heaps of treats and snacks, they would play with him and were so happy to see his true cute self after he rested. I thanked them so many times and made sure they know how much it meant to me to have their support.

      @Damian Patriot cheers mate. thank god kids grow up. But for real people hate it when the parents are not even trying to calm down their kids. God knows I was doing my best and on the verge of breaking down in tears. Eh... it's in the past now but what I still remember was the kindness of fellow passengers and the crew.

      Exactly! It's quite not fair to compare lunch/dinner with breakfast menu.

Those scrambled eggs in the video are unfortunately made wrong way (mistake of galley manager probably)

    I've only flown Qatar and Emirates before, but what I remember vividly about Emirates was their in-flight entertainment system. I had a two-leg flight (Europe to Dubai and Dubai to East Asia) and the same favorites I set on my in-flight entertainment system on my first flight, stayed there on my second flight. Even the movie I only watched halfway through was still on, on the 2nd flight right from the time I stopped it. This was a couple of years ago, and it blew my mind

    My whole family and I loved our entire experience with Qatar in 2017!! My youngest brother who was 10 years old at the time had really high fever and flu during our flight to Manchester and throughout the whole 8 hours flight the crew was so supportive constantly asking us for anything that we might need and coming up every hour to check his temperature and bringing water and snacks so he would feel as comfortable as possible. His ears were hurting from the soar throat and they even had ear drops for that which I was very surprised by. Loved their hospitality!!

  • @NiggaTigga94
    @NiggaTigga94 5 лет назад +1625

    A huge problem I have with this review format is that people can have different tastes and expectations to anything, especially when it comes to dining and service.
    To give an example: If myself and two other friends all tasted the exact same meal, chances are that if we were to rate that meal via a score, we would have different numbers.
    When reviewing the airline classes, for all we know, if those guys tried ALL THREE of those airline flights of the same class (and not review just one) THEN would they give the exact same score as each other?
    While entertaining and a little bit informative, I just do not see consistency in this review format, unless all three of these guys are reviewing the exact same flight(s) and then giving their thoughts/opinions.

    • @iAngelEliza

      Coudnt be more agree with your comment. for someone who is been flying with these airlines over & over & over again, I always experienced different kind of services and meals and I must say, they always surprised me. every time I go back to Indonesia, service from London abu dabhi & abu dabhi jakarta, london doha & doha jakarta, London dubai & dubai jakarta they are totally 180 different experienced. QATAR, Emirates, Etihad have different services when it comes to different destination. Well I think every months are different.

    I feel like breakfast on any airline is a hit or miss. Personally I choose the sweet option for breakfast on any plane. I always fly Qatar instead of Emirates now simply because I find that the Qatar A350s are nicer and the transit experience at Doha’s Hamad is miles ahead of the mess at DXB.
    Anyway great video and hope to see more amazing content!

    As someone who has only traveled personally on Qatar so I will refrain from comments on the other two, but It was a long 14 hour flight on an a350, and I really don't think there was any thing wrong. The crew and entertainment and food were all standouts. The crew were just so nice and they willing, without me asking offered an extra meal. The entertainment was so good like so many different options. Lastly the food was very good especially considering it was economy. So props to Qatar

    I personally feel Emirates prioritizes their first and business class product and don't care much about economy. As for service, sometimes the attendants just walk past the seat and think it was an accidental click of the call button and other times, they just ignore it and come 5 minutes later. If you're seated on an A380, I found that most of the cabin crew focused more on the back of the main deck rather than the front near cockpit area. Also, I think Emirates food is good on the other hand. Great video tho!

    My experience with etihad hasn't been good at all. Granted, all my flights with them have been extra long haul to Melbourne and Sydney, but the food was hardly edible, and the little I did ingest gave me a heartburn. The seats were very thin and hard. I had to get disposable pillows to pad the seat with.
    Turkish is better in long haul economy. Their food is quite good. And on a 13+ hour flight, it does make a difference. Where Turkish looses points, is service. Their crew just don't know how to smile or be warm. Their surly behavior borders on rude most of the time.

Those headphones are a bit weird but what irritates me is why they (and many others) hand out printed menus when this could easily be handled via the onboard entertainment system. Having flown Etihad to India previously, they're both good airlines experiences.

    Terrific video! Definitely earned a subscribe from this traveler! For New Years this year we had the privilege to take Qatar Business class qsuite from JFK to DOha! Incredible journey, however, on the way back we took economy and it was a miserable flight! I agree about the food on Qatar. This was our first time with QATAR. Now in the past we have been very loyal to Emirates airways (jfk - Dubai) long haul flights and 15 years ago when our son was a toddler- the flight attendant literally carried &walked up & down the isle with him to give me some rest. I was given the same courtesy about a few years ago with our daughter! So if your a perspective traveler, I don’t think you can go wrong with picking either of the 3 the gentlemen reviewed!

Emirates also has terminal issues, mostly with the airport being so gigantic. I found there were really two different experiences. The flight you had and a much lesser experience (like a different airline) in and out of bangladesh. Etihad was more consistent in and out of Nepal.

    I`ve flown on both Emirates and Qatar from Zurich to China via Doha/Dubai but I can`t say anything about Etihad.
    In my experience QAs service really stands out, I have flown with them two years in a row in August and the purser actually recognized me from the flight one year ago! Don`t get me wrong, Emirates service is really above average but I feel like the Qatar crew is a little more passionate about their job and they make the service a little more personal.
    As for the product: Bear in mind that Qatar Airways operates a more diverse fleet, so your economy product really depends on what aircraft you are flying on. For example: back then Zurich-Doha was operated by their 787 with a very impressive product, comfortable seat, a good responsive IFE screen big windows and metal cutlery with your meal. On the second leg to china I was on their a330 which has a noticeably older cabin, small windows, older seats, outdated IFE (the selection was the same, just talking about the hardware here) and plastic cutlery.
    You don`t really have that problem with Emirates since they only operate a380s and b777s and on most routes you can choose between 380 and 777 since they operate many routes twice a day, once with each aircraft type. If you can choose between them, I would highly recommend the a380 in economy just because the a380 is WAY quieter than the 777.
    About the food: Both airlines offer very impressive lunch and dinner for economy, I would just give Qatar the slight edge over Emirates. But both airlines really struggle to deliver a good breakfast, I had omelette or pancakes for the western option on both airlines and its just not good, I guess its just harder to make a good western breakfast on airplanes in economy...
    but here is a tip: If you are flying into China or Asia, maybe try the Asian breakfast, as in my experience compared to a normal asian breakfast on the ground, it wasn`t that bad.So maybe that`s an option for you, if you want to try something new.
    Another point where in my opinion Qatar has the edge over Emirates, is their Hub. Doha Hamad International is just a better and more comfortable airport to transfer through, since the distances between the gates on average are way closer than in Dubai. You also won`t need to take a subway or skytrain within the airport like you might have to in Dubai.
    In my experience Emirates` flights are a little cheaper than Qatar`s but the baggage allowance is higher on Qatar and they offer a free seat selection even on their lowest fare. Combine that with the consistent good service and the more passenger-friendly hub, I think its worth it to pay the extra.
