FIRST IN BUSINESS?! How Qatar makes BUSINESS CLASS feel like FIRST CLASS

Qatar's Qsuite is widely regarded as the best business class in the world and today I'm flying it! I'll be going from London Heathrow (LHR) to Doha (DOH). Since London is Qatar's most important destination they have an exclusive check-in area not found anywhere else on their network as well as their own premium lounge which is only available in 5 locations in the world.
I'll be flying on a 777-300ER with Qsuite installed. I indulge in the meal service which feels more like a first class offering than business class. I then sleep in the comfortable bedding before arriving at Hamad International Airport.
Once in Doha, I check out the premium immigration facilities and lounge before making my way to the arrivals lounge.
Let me know in the comments what you think of the facilities at Heathrow, the onboard offering and the arrivals lounges in Doha!

Hope you enjoyed your time in Doha and I look forward to seeing the next flight, even if I just get to *watch* the cocktails, rather than experiencing them first hand. :-) Cheers, Yann.

    Make sure you check that your flight has Qsuite when booking. I'd also recommend flying business on the A380 - it doesn't have Qsuite but it does have the onboard bar which is quite a novel experience and a great place to spend time. Whatever you go for, I hope you enjoy it!

The dining and service is the same and despite the lack of privacy on the old seats, you do get a sense of space. I also love the middle section in the business cabin on the A350 with space to walk around, stretch and a counter with drinks and snacks.

    Business class travel with a first class price tag .. it’s not surprising they can afford to lay on all the extra touches .. last time I flew business class , I paid about $2200 for a return ticket from London to Bangkok on EVA Air , which is also a great airline , but they don’t add on as many frills .. $4000 for a one way ticket to Doha ? No way … 🙏

    Yeah you definitely pay for all of the extras, that's for sure! Like you said, you can fly business with other carriers in the $2000ish range - this is usually the value I aim for spending cash on a flight otherwise I'll try to get it using points (if available).

    I used to be an Emirates only guy, until I was forced to get a Qatar business class flight when mine was cancelled. I flew to Sydney and let's just say I won't be flying Emirates no more 😂 I'm no airline snob aka Noel Philips, but I really like the little touches that Qatar do, such as no tray service, all cutlery and plates neatly laid out. Full amenity and pjs etc all welcome as was the offer of a turn down service with no need for me to request it. These tiny finishes make a flight so much more pleasant. And the Q Suite, what can I say about that, just 100%. Lounge is 17:49 fabulous, and the dedicated no queue immigration lounge was a nice surprise. As for cost, Qatar are dearer than run of the mill airlines, but are cheaper than Emirates. And whilst I don't mind the Emirates ostentatious gold bling which they thrust in your face, I do prefer the cool purple Qatar colour scheme. I think it's the first time I've ever been pleased to have my flight cancelled, otherwise I wouldn't have been introduced to Q suites! I don't know if Qatar do a chauffeur service pickup from home to airport as Emirates do, because I was already at the airport when my plane went tech. If they do that's great, but if not it's no deal breaker, as let's face it, the chauffeur service is little more than a decent taxi service in a newish car. See, I told you I'm no airline snob 😊
