- A warm welcome to this video, thanks for joining!!
I can’t say I’ve really had a nice start of this journey with Qatar Airways in First Class..
Filming seems to be prohibited wherever you go in Egypt, specially at the airport and the QR First Class check in counter was filthy.
I was then directed to the Economy Class lane as they assumed I was traveling there.
One of the staff was also secretly smoking a vape.. Quite the first impression in the first 5 minutes!
Fast forward to the aircraft this was made up for with the stunning service QR provides on a 2 hour flight.
Join me and see for yourself!
Today we are showcasing you the following flight:
From: Cairo International Airport, Egypt
To: Doha Hamad International Airport, Qatar
Flight Number: QR1306
Aircraft Type: Airbus A330-300
Registration: A7-AEN
Flight Time: 02:25

Wooaaw! I am impressed once again. What a 2h flight! When I compare Qatar to what we get here in Europe for the same amount of time, or even longer flights, I am very jealous I usually fly CDG-ATH, which is about 3h and you do not get any warm food, just a cold plate of fine food, but that's pretty much it. It seems out of this world that kind of service. I will be flying Saudia soon to JED and BKK and I am really looking forward to trying them, my first time with. I'll see what they have to offer. Keep reports coming, always a pleasure to watch your videos.
I know, right? The customer experience just seems the n1 priority while in Europe it’s profits and employees. While I think it should be a combo of all 3 (along with safety, security and the whole show, of course).
I’m glad that I still have some memories of what aviation used to be like in Europe, including hot meals in Economy Class with KLM from BCN-AMS..
Please do enjoy your flight on Saudia, I like them a lot! They are a “dry”airline but that shouldn’t really bother much in 15 hours..
Enjoy Thailand, great food!
please never change the intro it’s perfect
Thanks, glad you enjoy it!!
Really nice for such a short flight, business class in Europe & US is economy, I don't even bother flying business in Europe... Nice review
I agree! It has nothing to do with anything else, specially not the Euro rip off class😛.
I hope it becomes better..
Your Comments Are Very Helpful !
Nice Job Buddy!
Very glad they are Yasmina, that’s why I want to do it; for you to enjoy!
See you next video!
Qatar Airways is a very high quality airline and the airport in Cairo does look rather attractive to me.
It looks very attractive and it has the potential of being great. Just a few things need to be improved.. Morale wise mostly😅
Love the trip thank you
😁
Loved your video.I used to fly on Qatar Airways and I have done my own video onboard tthe Airbus A330-300 QR.Love the GEcf680 Engine sounds as its my fav aircraft engine and aircraft type.
Without a doubt You make the best aviation videos🫡🫡
That is so generous for you to say, thanks!!! 😄
@@TheLayoverAviation no i really like how you put details of everything... Hoping for more videos from India
Great quality content! Appreciate it for updating us on regularly basis. Hard work pays of🙌
Thanks a lot Ebrahim!!
It is hard work indeed, so I appreciate the nice words!
I hope you keep enjoying, much more to come!
Have a nice one my friend!
Qatar airways FTW! 🙌🏻
Indeed Azeemah!😍 ✈️
Fantastic 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
These vlogs are devine... Extraterrestrial stuff,😍
👽
Thanks Sam!
I really like the technical parts of the Video, like the engines, flaps, and Cairo to tel Aviv secret flights. U don't see that on other flight report channels
Aviation is full of anecdotes and interesting info! I learn something new each day and love to share it with you all.
Thank you for these videos. I also appreciate all the information on the parked planes, especially their where they've come from or where they're going. It makes viewing so much more immersive. Is it time consuming getting all that information?
Very time consuming Wahid! Sometimes it takes me quite a while to investigate one plane, specially if I can’t see the registration or if I didn’t write it down.
In this video it was a B777-300ER parked far away at the terminal while we pushing back, one going to Kuala Lumpur. Luckily Egypt Air only has 5 B777-300ER’s so it was easy to check each one of them to see which one was there at the same time as me.
But it’s a challenge for me to find out so I enjoy 😁
Thanks for the comment and for watching, glad you liked it!
ahhh Yesss! i waited and waited, it's been almost 10 days without a video! I was ''worrying'' ;)
great video buddy! that food looked amazing and the private bus, oh wow look great!
can't wait for your next videos :D
itai
Itai, busy busy summer months at work and too little time!
But I’m here! Thanks for writing!
The food was great and the bus a nice perk, but I still rather have the Porsche like at Lufthansa First😁
Good video. I particularly liked your "more technical" comments !
Thanks! I love learning it all and sharing it with people like me!
There a pub in Melbourne that makes the world's best lamb shanks with mashed potato and cinnamon beans.... 00:20:06.....and this is the best cheese plate I have seen on a plane....
What’s the name of the pub? I’m due to go to Australia soon.
And yes, great cheese platter. I’m waiting for someone to improve that!
Wow the food is amazing! No wonder they are world number one !!
I know right?! And in such a short flight!
Wow, amazing video! But, also sad to hear your experience from the beginning was not up to standards. I loved the scene of Emirates B777, and then the Qatar A330 at the gate!!! 2:30
What is up with the crew on QR secretly smoking a vape on the plane???? Beforehand, you were to told that you aren't allowed to do so as an agreement, so why did she break the rule??? Shouldn't she get fired on the job???
@LINJ638, not the crew on the plane!! Some of the ground staff while they were busy getting me checked.
The crew was good.
Thanks Abdur, like always!
It’s all ok, it’s can’t all be perfect. I fly a lot and it’s normal to have one nasty experience every 30. And from the moment you walk into Cairo Airport you’ll notice that customer service isn’t their best skill. (Not the only place.. I have one that’s worse, you’ll see soon!)
But my bitter experience was improved inflight!
The “best friends” together in that shot😂.
I’ll try to take Emirates in First Class on the very same flight to compare them.
Thanks for watching again!
@@TheLayoverAviation My pleasure, Alex! (I believe hearing your name in the video) correct me if I’m wrong 😂. Some airports including in Cairo can be sensitive of videotaping/photography, but I’m glad to hear Qatar Airways was able to up-mood yourself in their luxury First-Class! (Kinda jealous lol)
Thank you for the information in the video to better understand aircrafts and how they operate!
Ah si si.
Haha! It was bound to come. Now we need Qsuite next! This is truly one of the main areas where qatar really excels, providing more quality no matter the quantity! An amazing video and review as always!
Hey buddy!
I’ve covered Qsuites! : th-cam.com/video/WVzpBy5DtE4/w-d-xo.html
It was spectacular indeed. What a product. Can’t wait to fly it again, hopefully at the end of August with my wife. It will be her first time😋
Thanks like always for watching and writing!
@@TheLayoverAviation Oh wow! I didn't even realise :D Hope you have a grand time!
Great food.
Great!! Wish I had more space in my stomach to show you more, but I was obviously unable🥲
I would have it finished every plate Senor AV geek.
Always nice capture Good job
You’re always here, thanks Usama!
Congratulations ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great video! You have simply the best aviation-trip report channel! Great knowledge, funny and nice, all at the same time! Really appreciate that you share all this. Now I am going to Manchester.... hehehehe wink wink
Thank you so much Par, those are quite big words and I really appreciate it! Always a pleasure to share it with those that like it.
Have a nice trip to Manchester, enjoy the sky and sun! ☂
Thanks another great video with Qatar Airways a great product sorry you had a bad experience in Cairo -
Thanks Saud, it can’t always be perfect..!
The flight completely made up for the funky experience there. Have a nice one my friend!
I smiled when I saw that younger passengers should not view a particular movie (around00:28). Maybe we put them out on the wing? it reminded me of a particular comment from the FA on Cebu Pacific which mentioned in the pre-flight safety vid that "passengers should remove sharp objects from their body"....oh, well.....
But the big deal is that the TV show (The Office) is the nicest show I can possibly think of! I would never rate it 18+..
Nice anecdote on Cebu Pacific😂
😅Te quemaste con el pan! Otro impecable video con Qatar, la comida muy TOP como siempre con ellos. “Grandes recuerdos FS98😜” Nos vemos alejo! 👍🏼 Super el reporte!
Si, no me esperaba que el pan estuviera tan caliente!😂
te acuerdas de FS98..? Un día le haré volar a mi hijo a ver que le parece..
Así aprendió papa a volar de pequeño.. Cómo de rápido pasa el tiempo..
Gracias por escribir, sigo esperando a tu próximo video😛
@@TheLayoverAviation Erick un futuro piloto😊 Claro! El 98 y luego correr a comprar el 2000 y luego el 2002 y el 2004 etc! 😅 El mejor para mi 2004! Gracias por tu apoyo :) Buen finde Alejo 👍🏼
quality report content
Thanks my friend!
Love your videos.... if only turbulence hadn't scared me off from flying... 😢...maybe do a video for ppl who fear flying because of turbulence etc... that may help them relax during a flight like you...
I would not know what to say about the turbulence.. I enjoy it actually.
Flying is so safe, way more then any other transport method we take daily. Not a single plane has ever had a fatal crash because of turbulence, so you shouldn’t worry…
Just focus on your movie and enjoy whatever beverage you like best. It’s fun to fly!
Awesome intro 👌👌👌
Thanks!! It’s always the most fun part to
make🙂
You deserve atleast a million subscribers
I wish! Thanks for the positive thought!!
pd. I love Rick & Morty!
Wow excellent stuff bro once again😍😍, I thought qatar had stopped a330 operations
They brought them back and I had the choice to take the B777-200LR with Qsuites or this A330.. And went for the A330 as the days are counted!
They needed the A330 back in the fleet for their growing plans. I enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
WHAT! A! TREAT! To find a new video from my faourite videomaker before going to sleep! I think: your best one ever. As always, full of information, great camera work..but this time funnier than ever! You are the only one who makes me bursting out loudly into laughter! From L2L (I think i patent this for my own videos, hehe )!!! Lounge to Loo to the army of oil..wouldnt it be nice if all armies were like that🤣And your ode to Al Baker. So nice😄 So you flew the (in) famous regional F..in a 2-2-2. Ähem. But wines looked better than in C..and i was surprised to find an italian wine..they should surve them much more often and change their heavy New World bias. I think i would have done the same choices..and the Dino made me burst out into laughters again🤣😂Also love the advertisment for the Jedda flight, 😅🤣😂. Flying and eating..we are brothers in soul somehow..but please add the consumption of liquids🤫One serious question. I loved the BlueDanube..and used it during my active time. But i always got property strikes on my videos..so many that i lost fun in doing those. Has this changed by now? What is your experience? Big thank you for this heart warming video:))
Homer! You’re the treat! Thanks again for the words, quite a nice thing when it comes from my favorite video-maker😁. We can just keep throwing flowers one to another!
My best video? I actually delayed the release of this one as I did not really enjoy it much myself.. There are some better ones! Like my QR flight on the Qsuites, my EK upper deck to AMS, flight my on the Lufthansa B747-400 video to Dubai..
The wines were nice, but I’m sad they don’t serve it in front of you. It comes from the galley so you’ll have to take their word it’s the one you ordered.
We’ll take a nice flight together some day.
Regarding the property strikes, I basically use whatever is on TH-cam Studio, they have a section with thousands of songs you’re free to use without any issues, one of them was Blue Danube.
Then there are plenty of other websites that offer subscription plans etc, but not worth it unless you really consider it an investment of some kind.
I’m so far happy with TH-cam Studio music. I spend a couple of hours listening to music, find something that I like and then try to imagine how I would use it..
I’ve so far never had a strike..
Thanks again for your lovely comment, it made my day.
I wish you the best in your daily life and I’ll do my best to make you proud with my flight on Etihad Business Class in their B787-9, it should come out sometime this August..
Best regards from Athens!!
Alex
Great vloggg best TH-camr ever
The best viewer ever! Always here!!😄 🙏
@@TheLayoverAviation thank you
Impressive meal service!
For such a short flight it was great indeed!!
I know bro thats why i hate Egypt because its forbidden to Film everything... Proud to be German 🇩🇪💪! Btw very nice Expreience and Tripreport that was an good one❤️✈️
Well, good luck to me, I’m traveling to Egypt again next week. I’ve got plans for a cheeky hidden camera😎
And they even threatened me! Crazy world. I much rather film in Germany but flying from Egypt is so cheap so I kind of have to go there.. A ticket from Dubai to San Francisco costs in Economy what it costs in Business Class from Cairo..
Take care buddy!
Really incredible video mate! Liked!
Cheers Jelmer!
Great video as always Alex! Gracias. Great service for such a short flight. I flew Qatar a couple of times but their schedules are usually horrible, leaving Doha at 2-3am! I stick to Emirates. Nevertheless a lovely report as always! Goed gedaan m"n vriend!!
Flip! Always a pleasure!
Emirates has similar unfriendly departure time banks, I try to avoid it as much as I can.. But departing at 2-3 allows me to reach Europe at 7am.. As a zombie however!
There further is a departure bank from 07:00 to 10:30 and then from 13:00 to 15:30, my favorite.
Thanks and my best regards from Croatia!
25:58 yeah that is a bad feeling :D
Stunning video!! Enjoyed it!!
Greetings from Frankfurt!🙋🏻♂️
Thanks buddy!! Greetings back from Dubai!
Bárbaro!
😀
Great video once again my friend, a little bit old Skool on the A333 QR, nice to see the airport operations before the flight as Don’t know that much about Cairo airport but surprisingly very nice. Qatar airways flights are always high standards very nice Cabin crew very professional. Nice food and drink options too. 👏
Paul! QR has us so spoiled that we call this product ‘Old School”😂.
And one just needs to think that 12 years ago I flew recliner seats in EK Business Class. How Business & First have changed over the years..
But yes, QR keeps the bar very high!
And you didn’t miss out anything on CAI airport.. I was scared of filming as every couple of meters someone yelled at me, but it’s probably for the best😄
Thanks for being here yet again!
@@TheLayoverAviation yeah the growth in Business/first travel is ridiculous there are so many I would like to try 😂 sadly don’t have that type of money. Love it keep it up and yes enjoy the airport movements 👍👏
Greetings from Australia.
Greetings from Dubai Stjuardese!
Thank you for your honest comments, especially about the “hygiene conditions“ in the Cairo airport lounge! I too would avoid eating anything in an environment like that! It’s a shame Egypt doesn’t use their major international airports to “showcase“ the country. People will just come away with a negative experience about the country. I wonder if the meal on board was catered in Cairo or perhaps the return flight meals were also catered in Doha to ensure proper cleanliness of the food being served!
Yes I ate a subway at a store owned by Egyptians got stomach sick afterwards
It’s such a nice new terminal yet, like you mentioned, people take no real pride in it. It is a shame indeed as they could have done such a good job.
Not only will people leave with a negative image, but also arrive with one (that was my case..).
The return flight meals were catered in Doha 100% sure. It saves money and time on these short turnaround flights.
Many other airlines do this, unless it’s a long trip.
And yes, I can see from the meal itself that it was made in Doha. By now I’ve flown pretty much everywhere so I know what to expect and how things look like😂.
Thanks for writing Charlie!
Indeed cairo airport is very poor even though this terminal is hardly 5-6 years old
Nice trip report god bless you ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!! ❤️ ✈️
Experience ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Worth waiting ❤️😍
What a busy month!! I’m trying to get things out on schedule but I work double during the summer holiday!
Glad it was worth the wait 🙂
Great video as always! I hope to get to start flying some longer routes on widebody aircraft again soon (hopefully next year.) The only widebody I’ve flown for the past 2 or so years was a United 767-300 from LAX - EWR (which is also the longest flight I’ve been on in the past 2 years,) but that was overnight and I was sleeping almost the whole time. Anyways, love your videos, and keep up the great work!
Thanks Henry!
I hope you get what you want soon. What a pity that you slept on the overnight flight, but it’s easy when you’re not used to it!
I have a ticket booked on the United B767-300 from Dubrovnik to Newark later this month, I’m looking forward to it!
Thanks again and I hope you get to take one of these great airlines on a longer flight!
@@TheLayoverAviation Hey what is the difference between European aviation and Middle Eastern Aviation btw? More new planes???? They seem like to go on a shopping spree every damn time.
The service and seating. No European airline has IFE on short haul routes. All seats are plain and boring. Also no free service on almost any airline. And if there is any service it will just be some biscuits with a drink..
@@TheLayoverAviation Thank you for replying! I hope that you have a great flight to Dubrovnik. The United 767-300 is a nice plane, although being fairly old. I think I may fly to Greece or London next year, and am very excited (but I’m not 100% sure if I will be going yet.) Again, thanks for replying to my comment here and all the previous times I’ve commented!
I also hear that Lufthansa is doing the same on their long haul routes as well. They are doing cost cutting to their service. So meaning you get a meal on a full fare and if you want to get more free snacks, you have to pay extra, which is lame and a stupid ripoff.
Fantastic trip report as always!
thanks!!!
Saludos desde Bolivia 🇧🇴 y desde cochabamaba cuando puedes viajar a Bolivia desde Miami a Bolivia avion boa en boliviana de aviación
Hola Jimena!
Pues justo hace unos pocos meses vi el B767-300 de BOA en Miami y pensé lo mucho que me gustaría volar algún día en ese vuelo..,
Hace unos 13 años que ya no visito Bolivia.. Volé a Viru Viru desde Madrid con una empresa Española que ya no existe, se llamaba Air Plus Comet..
Muchas ganas de regresar!
Saludos desde Dubai! 🇦🇪
Awesome flight coverage with lot of aviation knowledge :)
Cairo airport has always been a turn off...so nothing new about the staff or maintenance or service
Thanks Faisal! I appreciate the commentS
I wish it gets refreshed, the Egyptians deserve better. Such a beautiful airport and sad that that many workers are just passive about it..
A great airline, with a crazy ceo.
Why does he want to retire those A380 in the first place????? Why all those draconian restrictions on why boys cannot talk to other girls at cabin crew training sessions???? Suppose you can't do those, you are telling them as well that white people cannot talk to Indian people, black people cannot talk to Arabs???? What is this lunacy in lala land world of his???? And also, is this main reason why there are not a lot of Westerners at Qatar Airways? th-cam.com/video/MEoEK_-YF30/w-d-xo.html
I am still very shocked, to be quite honest with you and I am having second thoughts about flying this airline in this near future. I thought that with an Arab in charge = means he favors more minorities. Why Emirates isn't like this???? WHY!!?!?!?
Don’t know. I think he’s trying to make a point against Airbus.
@@colinrenfrew48 Because of the paint job on A350???? He say that the A380 is not economically environmentally friendly. Not sure about that since more people are flying in demand again.
I agree 100%. The A380 is a superb airplane.
I know and he still wants to retired them by 2026. Yes it is not environmentally and sustainably friendly, but if more people want more choices to travel, shouldn’t he keep it in the service, otherwise it might hurt his business long term????? They can't fit in all the normal sized wide bodies at the airport terminals due to slot constraints, so they bring the super heavy jumbo A380 jet to fill in the rest of the gates. Look at Emirates, they are doing the same thing and oh, Lufthansa bringing them next year of 2023. I am not sure where this is going with this whack-a-mo CEO they have here, other than that he uses it as an excuse to say I can’t deal with Airbus, so up yours. Well, if he doesn’t like Boeing, is he going to say same thing as well??? No rational sense from his end.
Bro ik lewa moved to Barca, but there are many others who still thinks he's still in Bayern, I appreciate you are smart enough to pluck it out but I think this safety video will be there atleast till the fifa WC finishes, maybe they can update in 2023 👍
They should update it😛
But yea, I’m sure most people don’t even care or notice.
I wish they update the video soon regardless, I fly a lot with QR and am frankly tired of it. I mean, what is Cafu doing just walking around there and not saying anythint?😂
Lol true
Nice Detailed Review.. Did you got access to Al Safwa First lounge if you were on connecting flight?
Hey Amandeep, if I did then I didn’t use it as I wanted to see the Business Class lounge instead! I’ll try to find out, have plenty of more flights booked on QR😄
Such an elegant night flight! Would love to fly Qatar someday and film a trip report. I'm currently a One World Sapphire so I'll have access to the lounge(s) at Doha.
- Red
Qatar Airways has some good deals, I’m sure you’ll manage to find something.
All the lounges at Doha are great, I wish you a great time there!
👍👍 the video is interesting
Thanks!! glad you found so.
great report
Can you film A380 flight report for both Qatar and Emirates ?
Hello Ana! Emirates A380 there already are a few video’s around, and for the QR A380 I’m waiting until after the summer as all the flights are full now and I don’t like full flights 😂
Great video as always. What’s your favorit Bond movie?
Tough choice! Goldfinger will always have a special spot as I just watched it over and over as a kid. I’ll have to go for that one and for Casino Royale out of the newer ones.
Thanks for the comment!
Love your amazing videos is it possible to hold your sreenn wording for afew secs more
Other blogs can binge watch your blgs are worth reading every line thank you
Thanks Donna!
💗💗💗
😍
Hi dear, really nice videos and vlogs, My questions is how do you know every plane where it’s heading or from which country it came? I use flight radar 24… Also I like the stable position of the camera when you show the plane wings do you use your hands? Greetings from 🇮🇶Iraq🇮🇶
I know it thanks to Flightradar24 too! And when I can’t see it live then I’ll just look the registration up.
And the camera I just hold with my hand.
I think that the stable holding is thanks to having served people in restaurants so balance was important😝
Thanks for watching, greetings from Croatia!
@@TheLayoverAviation 💛 Thank you for replying 😊
A330 business class looks real beat up and the plane is really old. Btw, I would have devour EVERYTHING there is on that plate of yours, the lamb shank, cheese plate, everything without waste a drop of food.
Compared to the rest of the fleet it’s a little outdated indeed, however comparing to many other airlines out there it’s still a great seat, specially for just 2 hours!
From what I see this plane does not really operate any flights longer then +5 hours so it’s ok, don’t you agree?
Makes sense. Even Emirates has I believe the older and smaller B777-200LR for short range to India to begin, not for long haul flights anymore. The newer B777-300ER is for medium density cities, mainly for airports that can’t handle an A380. Not sure if I am right about all this though because some international airports would have two different planes from the same airline operate together.
The Emirates B777-200LR actually has the newest Business Class model and my personal favorite in the fleet. It flies on lower density routes and others due to certain limitations, such as Dubai-Barcelona-Mexico. A full EK B777-300ER and A380 can not take off from there so it’s the B777-200LR always covering the route! It’s powerful as it has the same engines and thrust as the B777-300ER but a lighter and shorter aircraft. I have a video about it coming soon..
The B777-200LR has the longest range out of any plane in the world, but it isn’t used that much anymore.. I think the longest route it covers in Emirates is to Dallas (15-16 hours or so..)
Really???? Dallas uses that as well??? I wonder when they are going to bring back the A380 to DFW.
Good report! But how did the plane reach 1000 km/h??😎 22:30
thanks!
The speed is thanks to the magic of tail wind.
1000km/h is not even the fastest I’ve been! In the winter the wind blows much faster when you’re flying from West to East and I’ve been over 1200km/h!
Nice flight! I am jealous. Anyways... I'd vote for Al Baker to become an US airline CEO, but it's not going to happen. He will fire all those grandma and grandpa crew and the union won't let him do that. Plus, us Americans are too low-end with food and it's not even possible to prepare good food, it's not a concept Americans are familiar with...
Hahah you are right in some observations.
Yeah, it’s very impossible to happen in the near future.
I think in Europe and US we just got used to rubbish and simplicity. People want a lot but are not willing to pay for it, while in Asia and the Middle East it’s all about quality.
Hopefully people become more demanding.
Thanks for the comment!
Sad to see that the *first* time you upload a first class video, the lounge was bad.
Worse then bad, I had to run away!😂
But it’s ok, it can’t all be perfect. It’s quite exotic to find yourself in these kind of situations. It would be weird if it were all normal.
Thanks for watching!
Another great flight report 😀 No wonder they don't want filming at Cairo ... looks like the maid hadn't been through in months. The lounge ... what you didn't eat, the cockroaches will, surprised you even drank the coffee ... I'd have preferred to drink from a street puddle in Indonesia 🤣🤣😎🥂
Maid, what maid? She must be a skeleton by now.
And I didn’t really get to show anything.. Nobody cared and it smelled like cigarettes in many places.
Had to have the coffee and a coke as I was tired and had the whole night of filming ahead😂.
Thanks for writing again Dean!
Quick question, how do you know which airlines/plane is going to or coming from? lol i'm curious 😅
He uses a flight tracker data app of some kind on his phone. You might want to get it for yourself.
@@LINJ638 ohh yeah I've seen those in use before.. your right
@@LINJ638 ap name please
There is many different apps, flightaware, flightradar24, planes live, search on the app store which one best suits your pocket & needs!
@@TheLayoverAviation Okay I will thank you!
Amazing loved this!! One question though. Isn't that business class on the a330?
Hey Tariq, yes it is indeed! The thing is that it gets sold as First Class on some of their flights.
That’s why I mentioned Business Class a few times, like pretending to forget I was in First Class.
The additional services that sets this “First Class” apart is First Class lounge access in Doha, Arabic date and coffee service, First Class bus, and I can’t really remember what else.. And it’s First Class prices too!
Glad you liked it my friend!
Great video but i have a question, is it expensive?
It isn’t cheap, but flights from Cairo are cheaper vs other departure points in the Middle East.
im from egypt
I tried to look for qatar airways and its too expensive
When you compare overall services being offered and customer experience which one would you prefer when compared with Qatar Vs emirates
Hey there! Tough question! So it really depends!
For example, I’m currently on holidays and I traveled along with my 2 year old son.
We had the choice between multiple airlines but both my wife and I had it clear we wanted Emirates. It’s just perfect for kids and family.
Emirates is a young, multicultural and fresh airline while Qatar Airways is more professional and serious.
So if it’s perfection I want along with pure luxury it would be them. Emirates is just lots of fun!
so to answer, it really depends on the day!
@@TheLayoverAviation thank you :)
What app do you use to obtain all the flight details of those planes you spot on the tarmac ?
It’s called Flightradar, Charlie.
@@TheLayoverAviation Thank you!
When air india vid coming out and how much is this flight ticket
There already is an Air India video somewhere, and this ticket was quite pricey, around $1500
And how do you know which flight it is for the other planes
I’ve got an app that shows live air traffic.
Just let Qatar airline operate within US, and give Delta, American, united some competition... I barely even bother trying to waste my mileage even on a cross country flight
I flew yesterday from Kuwait to Dubai with Emirates and even still on a 1:15 hour flight I got a full hot meal!
If airlines in the states don’t improve is merely because they don’t want to!
It was a strange takeoff footage, looks like you cut the rotation?
Hey Gergo, not really my style but my phone went nuts and started focusing on something else so the take off footage was ruined
How do you know which flight goes to when passing by ?
I have a live airplane tracing app, so I write it all down or will look for it once I’m editing the video.
It tells me the past 6 months of flight history of that specific aircraft!
@@TheLayoverAviation please app name
@@TheLayoverAviation but still how can you be so sure that the exact plane on that location is the one going the specific route when editing weeks later. And it must be a lot of work looking up ?
@MrChrlau Yes it is a lot of work indeed to look it up, up to 6 months later!
But most of the registrations I quickly write down on my phone and I’ll search them later if I don’t have internet or time..
I got so used to it that I’m quite fast😎
If I’m not sure where the plane is going, worst case scenario I might cut the plane out😂
1.11 this isn’t qTar airways fault but the whole airport in Cairo. They don’t care much 😢
I know Jafar, it was mostly the airport staff. But I think the check in experience is QR’s responsibility..
It’s sad but well.. What to do.
The things supplied in cabin like pillow hesdphone etc can we take these home?
I’m afraid not, specially not the headphones which say it is the airlines property.
Now, the Qatar Airways blanket I might have here at home.. 😜
@@TheLayoverAviation Leave them, they are dirty dirty, Yuck!!!!!
thanks Bro!...for another nice and pleasant video......AVINFOTAINMENT. :)
Thanks Martin! Glad you enjoyed.
🔥👍🏻
🙏
VVVVVIP ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Which camera do you use
Just the iPhone 13 Pro Max. It films quite well, just not that well at night.
All my take off footage became blurry.. That’s why it’s cut.
@@TheLayoverAviation Thanks
I think you mean First in Business
Nope, it’s called and sold as First Class yet it feels (and on different flights it is) like Business.
00:40 ,,please send me the music name of this??
Hey there, all the songs are written in the description!
@@TheLayoverAviation thanks sir
Good Riddance Emirates,. You burnt you bridges in so many ways and you are boring like Singapore Airlines. You both have the best competitor out there and they put both of you down a step on ladder. It's name? Qatar and bravo Qatar.
I can see you’re a good QR fan!
I actually have the time of my life on Emirates too, check out my A380 video with them in Business Class.
I’ll fly from Dubai to Cairo in First Class too and will compare it to this QR video, let’s see if you like it better😎
But yes, Qatar gets a lot of bravo’s from me too! 👏
Too much aeronautical information , not all your viewers are pilots. Less is more✈️🛫🛩
I wanted to make a channel for those that actually want to know as much as possible!
There is tons of other channels that look alike so this is my way to do something different.
@@TheLayoverAviation Ignore and ban this weirdo.
This is not first class
According to them it is.
But I also disagree.
Great video as always Alex! Gracias. Great service for such a short flight. I flew Qatar a couple of times but their schedules are usually horrible, leaving Doha at 2-3am! I stick to Emirates. Nevertheless a lovely report as always! Goed gedaan m"n vriend!!
Flip! Always a pleasure!
Emirates has similar unfriendly departure time banks, I try to avoid it as much as I can.. But departing at 2-3 allows me to reach Europe at 7am.. As a zombie however!
There further is a departure bank from 07:00 to 10:30 and then from 13:00 to 15:30, my favorite.
Thanks and my best regards from Croatia!
Alex, remember inaugural flight AKL JFK around 20th Sept and return I know that Richard Quest from CNN will be on board and possibly Sam Chui! Hope you can make it too!! I would be honoured to meet you and show you around here for a couple of days! You have my details!!
