MY: DOH - KUL...
Sept 30, QR624... A7-ACI (in Asian Games 2006 blue colour) flew me home from Doha.
I checked in around 9pm and returned to the airport an hour before departure. The lounge was full and the flight has already started boarding. Nothing interesting to buy at the duty free, so I proceeded to board the aircraft.
Met Mel, an old friend on board the aircraft. She is a CS in charge of the Economy Class. My previous flight from KUL to DOH last July was also served by Mel.
The turbulence en route to KUL was quite bad. If I am not mistaken, we were hit by turbulence occassionally starting from the Oman air space and it lasted until we flew over Andaman Sea.
I had a chicken rendang for my late supper, which was served an hour after take-off. Two hours after my supper, CSD Alain came and told me the imsak will be slightly after 3 am (Doha time). At that time we were flying over Indian airspace. I agreed to have an early breakfast and chose continental breakfast for my sahoor. At this time, Mel came over and we chat for about 15 minutes. Poor her.. she was not allowed to sit on the empty seat next to me (seat 1F), so, she sort of has to squat on the floor... :-(
Half an hour before 3 am, I had an early breakfast. A full set of continental breakfast. Then, I had a good 3 hours sleep until 30mins before landing at KUL. Landed on time at KUL and by 1pm, I was on ERL to XKL.
Well, this probably the last flight for me with Qatar Airways... Although they claimed they are the 5 Star airlines awarded by Skytrax, I think I pass... (no hard feelings to my QR crew friends ok..:-))

I wonder how QR got the 5-star airlines...their service is terrible.
I remember a cabin crew wearing glasses!! I am not lying...
I took many airlines such as SIA, Malaysian Airlines,Thai, Emirates, Qantas, Qatar Airways (QR)....
Without any prejudice, Singapore Airline is the best. Even you travel in the Economy Class, it is much 1000x better than QR's economy where the seat is hard and cramp.
In simple one word, QR "sucks"....
so how's the new aircraft?? better than before?

Hi there! Lama tak nampak :-)
Out of 5 airlines (SQ, MH, CX, QR and OZ) which have 5* status awarded by Skytrax, which one publicize widely? I guess u need wonder no more.. every body can guess how thisone got it :-p
Cabin crew can wear glasses when they are already in service, not at the point of hiring - if i am not mistaken.
Hope u r doing ok in Fujeirah :-)

Definitely better than before! Previous A300 are ancient and must be scrapped!
