This is the review of this midlife adventurer’s flight from Doha, Qatar, to Montreal, Canada, aboard the Qatar Airways’ famous business class, the Qsuites. I flew by Qatar Airways mid-October, about a month before the FIFA World Cup 2022 began.
The flight ended my almost three week-long tour of the Middle East. The trip took me to Egypt, Oman and then to Qatar.
The Background
Flying by Qatar Airways’ Qsuites was a longtime dream and recently it came true, thanks to awards points. I will write a review later how I used awards points for my entire Middle Eastern tour.
At the airport, there is a different entrance for business and first-class passengers and once we entered it, an officer checked for the Ehteraz app for our vaccination and PCR status.
And then we followed the business class section for check in.
We boarded the flight just before 8 am.
I was welcomed by a flight attendant (FA) who showed me my seat. I had a Qsuites aft-facing seat by the window.
A few minutes later, I was offered a choice of drinks - as usual there was juice, sparkling water, or champagne. I went for a Rose.
Then I was given the Qatar Airways lounge/nightwear. The package contained a pajama, a World Cup 2022-themed t-shirt and slippers. I think this set comes from the British luxury clothing retailer, the White Company.
After Eva Air, this is the second time I have received a pajama in a long-haul flight.
And a few minutes later I was given the menu cards - for inflight meals and the drinks.
The FA also informed of the Qsuites meal on-demand, any-time meal system - meaning I can choose when I want to have the meals.
I went for a breakfast just after takeoff and then another meal just before landing.
The flight took off almost on time.
And shortly after takeoff I got my sealed amenity kit. Made by the French perfumer Diptyque, the package contained tubes of face cream, lip balm, body lotion and eau de toilette. Women got pouches that were pink and white. According to QA, the pouches are made with vegan leather.
About 45 minutes after takeoff I got a beer (I had requested it) and a cup warm nuts, and a little later my first course. Check here for my full meal details.
About two hours into the flight - and by this time I was long done with my meal - the FA came to make my bed. The act of making the bed was to let the seat slide into a 180-degree position and then spread the mattress pad and then a blanket. There was a pillow as well.
And then it was time to land and say goodbye to the friendly and professional crew.
