Due to the early departure of the flight, I have to sleep directly at the airport. There are many hotels in the airport area. I choose the Ibis hotel located next to the suburban train station "Aéroport CDG 1".

I arrive at the counter where I collect my boarding pass and where they will check that the weight of my carry on bagage does not exceed 7kg. They will also check my vaccination certificate, no PCR test are required for the transit in Doha and the stay in Dubai.

The cabin crew aren't really friendly, the welcome wasn't very good, they don't have a smile.
Crossing throught the QSuite to go in the first economy cabin.

My seat is located on the last row of the first economy cabin.

Incredible! The flight is really empty, this is perfect and more confortable.
