This is the first trip report I've seen of Qatar Airways 737-MAX. Wow- that cabin design and colour palette is stunning! Really nice seat and the snack service looked good- something more inspiring than half a sandwich or some pretzels. Deboarding by bus is a pain but I guess that will be common for the 737-MAX at Doha due to it's smaller passenger capacity. Just a shame it soured the arrival experience for you after what looked like a flawless on board service.

Thanks for watching and completely agree. I sent really criticise them too much since all airlines can be slow to board and deboard. It just seemed especially slow here.

Wow another amazing review from Freddie 😮 I remember when I transferred in Doha had to run like a mad dog from 1 gate to another 😫

Nice, how was it?

Am sure this is not honest. Otherwise Qatar Airways have fear camera. It was a brand before corona now they spoil their name. May be due to world cup, earlier Indian traveller prefer Qatar but now it's changed to another airline after few delivery of new aircraft sure it will AI AND 6E.
