Luxury Travel Diary staff have flown with Qatar Airways a number of times and have reviewed their long-haul flights in First and Business Class. Trip reports can be found below.
I rate the Middle Eastern Carriers; Qatar, Etihad and Emirates as the top airlines for First Class and have compared Emirates vs. Etihad vs. Qatar Airways to rank which is the best Airline in the Middle East. They all also feature in our top 10 best business class airlines in the world.
Qatar Airways offers several types of Business Class products on its A330 fleet, with some aircraft featuring old seats (that don’t fully recline) and others featuring the updated product (with fully flat bed seats) that Qatar offers on its A350, B787, and A380 planes. The brand new Qatar Airways QSuite will be rolled out across most of its fleet (starting with the B777), so in the near future, the inferior A330 Business Class seats will be gradually phased out.
The Qatar Airways’ QSuite will make Qatar Airways the outright winner when choosing an airline to fly to the Middle East in Business Class. By the end of 2018, when this seat has been rolled out across most or all A350’s and Boeing 777’s, there will simply be no comparison between this Business Class product and the Business Class Suites offered by other airlines. Even the new suites offered by American Airlines, United and Delta will not compare, and with the rapid roll-out, Qatar should be your first choice for Business Class on routes flying these two planes.
Pre-flight at Hamad International Airport in Qatar, if you travel in First, you get access to the Qatar Airways El Safwa First Class Lounge which simply outclasses all the competition in airport lounge experiences. In Business Class, you will get access to the Qatar Airway’s Al Mourjan Business Lounge which is also exceptional.
Below, you will find our most recent flight reviews on Qatar Airways in Business Class or First Class – you can draw your own conclusions.
