👋🏼I don't have the slightest idea what happened to the last 30 seconds of the video. All that is missing are the end graphics. I watch it on KZbin an hour before posting and it was fine. Maybe it is a glitch which will correct itself, in the mean time, here are the scores from the flight: PRE-FLIGHT & GROUND: 17/20 SEAT & AMENITIES: 15/20 IN FLIGHT EXPERIENCE: 20/20 AIRCRAFT & CLEANLINESS: 20/20 FEES & FOOD: 20/20 OVERALL IMPRESSIONS: 92/100

One bit of advice, if you have not been given yet. Never wear flip flops when flying. If an emergency evacuation is required, flip flops will easily come off & therefore expose feet to potential injury from aircraft debris, rough ground or a hot runway surface. Light shoes or trainers are recommended.
@tfft
@tfft 11 ай бұрын
I appreciate that this is the first genuine advise I've ever had on the channel about not wearing flip flops as opposed to the typical "you should be wearing a tuxedo in business class" comments. So, thanks for that!

I agree with you on the shortness of the seats and yet I think back to the peak of my business class travel about ten years ago and none of the seats at the time had much in the way of privacy. Gives me a good sense of how the industry has evolved in a relatively short time!

Kevin, excellent review! Qatar’s food is really wonderful and the way they take care esp on the Asian leg, is mind blowing! They consider flyers like guests or family members - so much caring and attention to details. But what I also wanted to mention, is the soundtrack you chose: “Against All Odds” is so perfect with the scene flying over the clouds and before landing, and throughout the clip.. love it ❤

Finnair is currently operating flights for QR, for instance to Stockholm Arlanda and Helsinki, due to the A350 paint-issue. Oneworld partnership done right. Finnair is also operating flights for Qantas. The closing of Russian airspace really put a hold on Finnair's operations to asia, one of its most important markets.

Oh, how much I would like to fly on this Albatros! Unfortunately so far it never matched my destinations and/or travel dates. Who knows next year when I’ll be flying Bali New York, it will be served with an A380 on whatever airline… Will be following Qatar closely with the new CEO Badr Mohammed Al-Meer to see which direction he will take QR. Quite shocked still how unceremoniously Al Baker was disposed of, after having been so revered for so long. Guess at some point his intimidating glare was not enough to stay in power after having created so much polarisation within and outside the company. Thank you for the great review and beautiful video 🙏🏼

"My crew could not have done *more* for me." @17:31 Also, since you're shooting with an iPhone, I suggest recording at 1080p at 60fps, or even better, at 4K at 60fps, and also uploading the video in HDR. Your videos are already beautiful, but they could be even better if uploaded in HDR. The iPhone's video recording capabilities are excellent, and I recommend making the most of them.

As a fan of QSuite, I sincerely feel bad about the sit on their A380. I am not sure if their dreamliners are fitted with the QSuite or a version of it. But I am glad you had a better experience on this leg as opposed to the previous experience of yours. A quick nit pick, am a fan of QR as opposed to EK Business class but the lounge/bar on the EK A380 is more fun than QR Bar (seemingly as I have not been on the QR A380). As an avid watcher and follower of your videos, it would be great if you could review BA and Finnair Business class. I am booked for BA Club World on their 777 (BLR-LHR) and Finnair A350 Business class (HEL-LHR) in April 2024 (I know way in the future that it) and would be great to know your thoughts on either or both of those classes.

Might not be the first or last to say this , but as I understand it, there’s a lot of Finnair planes at Doha due to the majority of countries no longer flying in Russian airspace.. as Finnair’s routes to most parts of Asia would overfly parts of Russia , they’ve had to cancel some routes etc .. when QR were angry at Airbus for quite a while , they ended borrowing a number of Finnair’s ‘extra’ planes - most likely their A350’s , and that was that .. I’m also guessing that some Finnair flights to Asia are going via Doha maybe ? Finally , it’s a real shame about those exposed seats on the QR A380. Maybe a bit of an oversight, I think. Or the final decision made by someone who’s not really very tall ? 😮 Great review, as always .. thanks Kevin… 🙏

So, I assume that COO is no longer there, which means... I don't know how many 'security/immigration issues' I may have if I passed through the airport.

I too have 2 segments on UL schedueld for next year- also not for status and booked long before the flyertalk forums went crazy about their cheap fares haha. And no worries, if I'm honest, there are very few creators who can keep me for a full video 😅

These days it’s a standard redemption from US East to Southeast Asia, 87k-110k being the normal range. Qatar typically charges absurd cash fares ex. JFK, especially one way (~$6000+) so in that regard, 95k points is a steal lol.

Looking at your Qatar Airways flight and crewise this one will have a local Qatari and Thai flight attendant. On the other hand flights going towards MNL DVO CEB CRK always have a Filipino Qatar Airways flight attendant. To me the Qatar Airways A380 Rockwell Collins Super Diamond seat seems to be equal to their Oneworld Alliance Partner CX/AA Safran Cirrus seats and Skyteam Alliance KE Collins Aerospace Serenity/ BE MiniPod seat and beat out a PR Mabuhay Class Thompson Vantage XL seat. Towards the Philippines this seat is seen on Doha to Clark Cebu and Davao routes leaving MNL to have the Q suite which is a Safran Fusio seat. Flying economy class on Qatar A380 websites suggests taking Upper deck due to it being a 2-4-2 like an A330-941 due to the lower deck being 3-4-3 seen on B777 B747 and selected A350s economy class.

As someone who has flown all of the gulf carriers in Business it is clear that Qatar wants to define itself as a mass market airline. Yes the Q Suite is fantastic but it isn’t first class quality and neither is the service, and the rest of their business class is an average hard product (seat / plane) with hit and miss soft product (service). Economy is terrible and they dont even offer a premium economy. Economy long haul is only ever good on an A380 which as Kevin says QR does not like. The fact they own 25% of IAG and plan to float (become a publicly listed company) is the driver for these decisions.

Firing all the crew and banning Josh Cahill from the airline is somewhat draconian. For an airline that is supposed to be a 1st class leading the airways. It is very bad publicity. As I said I worked in all for 25 years in the airline biz. And the working conditions in the UAE for crew is awful.
@tfft
@tfft 11 ай бұрын
If you watch his video carefully, his “the whole crew was fired” comment is pure speculation based on a comment on KZbin from god knows who saying it might happen. He even admits he didn’t know if they were actually fired before near instantly insisting they had been fired. Not to mention if he received an email before his flight that his itinerary was cancelled and he was banned- why show up to the airport and try to check in and be ‘surprised’ you’d need to rent a Maserati at 04:00 to drive to DXB and then pretend like Emirates ‘saved you’. Very sloppy and misleading at best.

I'd take that pre-packaged welcome toilette any time. Why? The regular, moistened toilettes tend not to be heated enough to kill any bacteria they may have picked up prior to being handed via tongs to you. I've flown hundreds of long haul flight and NEVER wiped my face with them, and maybe not even my hands, depending on what they've handled since last washing them.

I've been behind the scenes, and seen enough to put me off. It doesn't happen often, but there can be some unhealthy water handling and storage. I only got really sick once, but I lost 4 business days and had to cancel my keynote speech at a conference at the last minute. Very embarrassing.
