ZRH-BKK via DOH in Business. Outstanding service, very personalized. Tail winds made both
flights short by 40 minutes to Doha and - what a shame - 1 hour from Doha to Bangkok. Almost
no time to enjoy the flawless flat beds in their new 777.

Jakarta to Manchester return. Difficult to find fault really. The only hassle was an unseemly
scrum in the transfer security check at Doha on the return leg, which is the airport's fault
rather than the airline. Food was excellent, IFE reliable and easy to use, plenty of legroom
and all flights arrived on time. Transfer time was just right at 2 hours. I have tried quite a
few airlines and combinations of airlines on this route and Qatar beats the rest.

Singapore - Doha - Athens return. Airfare is competitive, website easy to use, flight timing
good, inflight catering tasty, seat comfortable, inflight ameity kit good and has everything
you would need for a long flight, inflight magazine got quite few interseting travel articles
and personal entertainment system is well stock with a variety of movie music short programmes
and games. But cabin crew service is inconsistent some are very friendly and nice while some
are uninterested.

MUC-Doha-KTM return Economy. Tried on line check in and found the 36 hour check in applies to
each leg of the journey. It was not possible to book the whole outward leg at one go, but had
to wait until the Doha-KTM 36 hrs limit. It was not possible to check in both passengers in
one session, each had to be done separately. For one person, I could choose the seat, for the
second person, the system allocated the seat automatically. This needs improvement. Airport
check in staff at MUC were helpful and rectified the situation. They gave us exit row seats
with better leg room. MUC-DOH leg had only 75 passengers, but all others were nearly full in
economy. Check in at KTM 3 hours ahead of flight. Return flight KTM-DOH seat at front bulkhead
of economy is not a good option, as disturbance with separation curtain and toilets. Doha
Munich section both of us middle seat in the middle of the central block (allocated in KTM).
Could change on aircraft. Leg room is only just enough, and seats narrow. Possibly better near
the front of economy than further back. IFE boxes at every second seat reduce leg room.
Extensive entertainment choice with latest films, but poor earphones. A330 and A319 in
different configuration were clean and relatively new looking. All flights on time (even early
departure!) except Doha-Muc which was delayed due to traffic. Lots of food on a small tray.
Quality ok, but some items strange taste and consistency. Wine choice mediocre, but nothing to
complain about. Long layover at Doha, and airport is boring but clean. Only fast foods
available, and expensive compared to European airports. If layover more than 5 hours, a food
voucher is issued, but you have to find the desk.

LHR-DOH-HKG returning HKG-DOH-LGW economy. All flights were very good. Extremely well fed and
drinks whenever you wanted one. Seats were good with good pitch. IFE box on window seats was
not much of a problem, keeps your feet warm if nothing else. Return to LGW was diverted to STN
where Qatar staff were extremely helpful. Cabin crew were extremely friendly and could not do
enough for you. All in all a fantastic airline who I would gladly fly again

London via Doha to Colombo and return from Trivandrum. Planes very clean and good food.
This time however, we really noticed that Doha was much more crowded - and rather chaotic - in
both directions, making for less than relaxing transit experience. Hope that this is only
'growing pains' and will be addressed soon!

Vienna-Doha-Vienna, very nice flight, appealing interior of cabin, good service, but the
crew did not pay a lot of attention to the few business class travelers. Impressive wine
selection, I found food a bit disappointing. For business class travelers there is a separate
rather posh business class terminal in Doha, extremely convenient, basically no wait to get to
the gate.

FRA-DOH in First Class. Redeemed miles as a special treat and was disappointed. The crew
smiling but whenever there was a problem they didn't know what to do. Seat broke down before
departure, luckily a technician managed to fix it. Spacious seat with lots of storage but was
showing its age. It was still fine for seating but uncomfortable for sleeping. Qatar should
provide an extra mattress on top of the seat to make it comfortable in the full flat position.
No limousine transfer in Doha and no explanation given. When I wrote to customer service to
complain the reply was "you didn't get the transfer because you were travelling in Business".

Doha to Mumbai, shortish flight. Immaculate new B777, very comfortable virtually flat bed seats. Cabin staff really
friendly and efficient. Lounge service in Doha a bit poor today, but rest of trip underlines why they are a 5-star airline.

CPT-DOH-GVA in Business class on Airbus 330-200. Service perfect, food was exceptional, seat
quite confortable although there is the sliding down feeling while sleeping,

SIN-CGK. Clean, comfortable aircraft, nice cabin crew. They also offer food on this short
flight. Their airfares are very competitive.

Business Class Gatwick to Shanghai and back, via Doha. It's very difficult to fault Qatar
Airways on the ground and in the air. Premium Terminal at Doha makes waiting worthwhile. Every
sector was on time or early. Online check in a step forward but did not actually bring up the
first sector in either direction. Finally, great fares too.

FRA-DOH-KUL return. First time with this airline. Very good service, on all flights food was
good and drinks were served all the time. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Clean aircraft,
good seats and great in-flight entertainment system. Would fly again.
