Oh no, how disappointing not to get the Qsuites! But yeah, like you said it's super risky planning trips around a specific aircraft type--murphy's law is always there to mess things up. It's surprising QR are still operating aircraft with that old cabin--that can't be good for their image. It has a UA-Faularix Hyped-up-marketing feel to it.
The renovated QR lounge in T1 looks amazing, though!
Hi Kevin,
When the change happened I tweeting it. Qatar actually DM'd me. They asked for my booking reference and seemed willing to do something. As soon as they found out it was an American Airlines award ticket they lost interest. I still maintain to sell seats in a cabin that you are advertising to be the premier cabin, then change it is bad business. It's one thing to change aircraft with the same seats. This I felt was different.
And yes the lounge was super nice. Just remember it's before security, not by the gate which the check in agent stated it was. I passed security then had to exit and return. A mess.
Thanks for reading!
Disappointing to have a last minute aircraft change. But good report nonetheless!
Thanks for reading Singabore
Hi Mark and thanks for the next installment.
“At first it was YES! Then as I scanned the email to see the New Aircraft it was an instant realization that I was going from the best business class seat Qatar offers to the worst.”
-I share your disappointment in being TG’d by QR. Indeed, the hard product on the 777W is fairly ordinary.
“Arriving at the airport early enough to check out the lounge was a priority. The Qatar lounge in Paris has recently been renovated. It is a beautiful lounge with plenty of different types of seating along with an outdoor terrace.”
-Wow, wow, wow what a beautiful lounge. Such a far cry from the abysmal AF lounge they used to contract in T1.
“To Qatar's credit (and this is an assumption), I noticed on the seat map that the seat next to me was blocked.”
-Bingo, direct aisle access!
“I don't remember the candle on my prior Qatar flight. “
-And the LH salt and pepper grinders.
“And I am not sure why I ordered this. I should have ordered a glass of champagne and been done with it.”
-It looks rather OK, was not good in flavor?
“Taking a flight to fly a specific aircraft is risky, especially when the reservation is made a year in advance.”
- I guess that sums it up. Still an excellent report and good soft product so thanks for sharing. I sense the happy flying is about to begin again…
Hey Christian (your comments are timely)
Today I booked QSuites from ORD-DOH B777, then QSuites on the new A350-1K to Singapore and then New Singapore URL to SFO, inaugural flight!
-Yes saw your report on that one, you need to go back.
- I don't think I got up the whole flight. Slept
-Knew I'd seen those somewhere before!
Nothing to want again. The hash was watery and egg omelets on a plane I detest.
Thanks again Christian,
"Today I booked QSuites from ORD-DOH B777, then QSuites on the new A350-1K to Singapore and then New Singapore URL to SFO, inaugural flight!"
-My goodness I'm green with envy. What a itinerary. What currencies did you use? Can ORD-DOH-SIN be one ticket with any program? I really want 2 try qsuites...
