This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!

    👋🏼I don't have the slightest idea what happened to the last 30 seconds of the video. All that is missing are the end graphics. I watch it on Youtube an hour before posting and it was fine. Maybe it is a glitch which will correct itself, in the mean time, here are the scores from the flight: PRE-FLIGHT & GROUND: 17/20 SEAT & AMENITIES: 15/20 IN FLIGHT EXPERIENCE: 20/20 AIRCRAFT & CLEANLINESS: 20/20 FEES & FOOD: 20/20 OVERALL IMPRESSIONS: 92/100

    Kevin, excellent review! Qatar’s food is really wonderful and the way they take care esp on the Asian leg, is mind blowing! They consider flyers like guests or family members - so much caring and attention to details. But what I also wanted to mention, is the soundtrack you chose: “Against All Odds” is so perfect with the scene flying over the clouds and before landing, and throughout the clip.. love it ❤
  • I agree with you on the shortness of the seats and yet I think back to the peak of my business class travel about ten years ago and none of the seats at the time had much in the way of privacy. Gives me a good sense of how the industry has evolved in a relatively short time!
  • @vinnupooh4054
    Loved the DOH graphics with water surrounding it, gives an realistic and immersive feel. Loved the landing views, Suvarnabhumi means golden land quite fits the name. And Lots of Love Kevin, have a great trip ahead.
  • @killerqueen9298
    Hi Kevin. Another fabulous video apart from the rather abrupt ending. Must be YouTube running out of coins for the electricity meters😂😂. I have only ever flown an A380 with Emirates and although they are undoubtedly brilliant aeroplanes, I find that with so many passengers in business class they tend to be a touch impersonal. Keep up with the great work. I always look forward to Thursdays and Saturdays.❤😊
  • @sidthekid4730
    Brilliant video 📹 😊. I absolutely love, how you mention the next 5 videos. Excellent 😊. Nobody does that.
  • @Berzyberz
    I Love A380s! I also LOVE that background music. Ps the photography in this video was really lovely.
  • Doing the return flight of this route in First Class in 2 days time. Cant wait and a first for me. Totally agree with your comment on the QR 388/788 seats. No wonder those seats haven’t been installed on newer aircraft. Great video as ever!
  • @solomonkane5978
    your BGM and video quality are top-notch, unlike the other people. I really like it
  • Another enjoyable and informative video. Huge plane. The lack of privacy is bizarre. Nice shout out to good crew as well as the food. The sunset is stellar.
  • @ottobolin90
    Finnair is currently operating flights for QR, for instance to Stockholm Arlanda and Helsinki, due to the A350 paint-issue. Oneworld partnership done right. Finnair is also operating flights for Qantas. The closing of Russian airspace really put a hold on Finnair's operations to asia, one of its most important markets.
  • @Thongger
    I really enjoy how snappy and concise your videos are; alongside the avoidance of clickbaity headlines. Side note - me and my colleagues just flew Gulf Air to and from BKK and Bahrain. Some variance in quality (my colleagues on the other side of the aisle had a pretty surly flight attendant, but I had a very pleasant experience both ways ) , but overall very nice and comfortable
  • @dennisrettke
    Fantastic video as always - thank you for your efforts and brilliant execution. Wonderful sunset views too. One question - why did you scramble the first class layout on the graphic at 6:26?
  • @JohnLadda
    Great video. Fun to see since I take doha-bkk route 2 times every month with qatar.
  • @nafeekarim2780
    ❤Qatar airways because they upgraded me and my mom to business class from economy to business
  • @brianking768
    Loved the review. I completely agree that the Chicken Machboos is a fantastic dish. I dream about having it again. A QR soup is also a can’t miss; everyone I’ve had was delicious.
  • @user-wr2yl6eq1r
    One bit of advice, if you have not been given yet. Never wear flip flops when flying. If an emergency evacuation is required, flip flops will easily come off & therefore expose feet to potential injury from aircraft debris, rough ground or a hot runway surface. Light shoes or trainers are recommended.
