Generally, I don’t comment in your videos but this video deserve a like and a comment🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you for making this video. And, Hats off to you, Itne stressful situation me camera open krke video bnana is not an easy task. Your experience will definitely help a lot of people.
And, I know the pain of london Heathrow migration ka line plus ek terminal se dusre me jana.
Hope you reached safely in Edinburgh.
Thank you! 🙏
Yes, I reached safely with all my luggage 😄
You have got experience at such a young age
Fortunately and unfortunately 😂
Such sharing of experience deserves a thankyou! We can really feel the extent of harrasment you have gone through.
1 hr 20min layover time is really less. It's always risky with such timings.
You're a sport for making through a harrowing experience like this while flying for the first time! Another potential way to avoid this would be to book both flights of the same airline (Qatar in your case), through their official site instead of online travel sites like MakeMyTrip etc. Then the airline will directly be responsible for catering to you in such situations since both your boarding passes will be issued at your departing airport in India.
This happened to me in March..qatar booked me into another flight but honestly i want to call out on them for not giving any accomodation at LHR …! And when i mailed them after i reached uk …because i was a day late when i entered this country..!
they started talking about their article number so and so. Horrible !
I learnt this lesson long back. I always book direct flight between Delhi and UK after the same experience with Qatar many years back. I was with my small daughter then so they put me in a hotel and we took next flight to Edinburgh 22 hours later. With a small child in a strange country was a very nerve racking experience although once they sorted it out and gave the hotel coupons it was smooth as they arranged the pick up n drop from the hotel. So you can ask for that option as well.
I’m scared I’m travelling in 2 days from London to Kolkata ,and I have a layover of 1.30 hrs at Doha!
HOW DID IT GO?? i am so tensed :(
bhai bahot darr gayi ye sunke
Sach bolu bro 5:30 ko mera dimag hil gayaa aapka sunke bahut hi complicated situation hai aur mera sher ke upar se chala gaaya,
Qatar Airways and Doha airport is the worst airline and airport. I have had a terrible experience with them in December last year.
Hey Sandeep! What was your experience like,
@@Dream_UK My mother-in-law was to travel from Bangalore to Edinburgh via Doha. The flight reached Doha late and they packed her off on another Qatar flight to Barcelona, saying she is booked on another flight from Barcelona. But they didn't do anything. On reaching Barcelona, she was detained by immigration officials and kept under arrest, saying she entered the country without travel documents. When we called Qatar, they were lying she has already reached Edinburgh. And the airport officials in Barcelona would not speak any language apart from spanish. Finally a Spanish speaking friend spoke to them and explained what happened. Then we struggled to make Qatar Airways accept they screwed up. Finally they booked a BA flight from Barcelona to London. And next day another flight from London to Edinburgh. In between all this, even her luggage got misplaced.
That's so bad! I can't even imagine what she must have gone through. 😲
@@Dream_UK biggest lesson. Avoid Qatar Airways as much as possible, and never book a flight with less than 2 hours layover.
@@SandeepTheVoice thanks for sharing
don't go with QATAR Airways
they are delay like that
brother what about the price did they charge you something ??
Congratulations. Bravo you handled the difficult situation very intelligently and with confidence. Good share of experience. Thanks
Thank you very much Nana Ji 🙏🙏
Last year i had issues with Qatar Airways as well.. i landed at doha airport and my flight was for Toronto with layover in Heathrow...i was worried the if i would miss my flight to Heathrow due to short layover at doha for less than 2 hours...i reached doha on time fortunately and boarded the plane as well however because aircraft didn't got ground clearance all passengers were requested to gett off the aircraft. It was mentioned that Qatar Airways would arrange another aircraft for the flight to Heathrow. This flight was several hours late...by the time i landed at Heathrow it was 6 pm and my connecting flight to Toronto left at 6 pm....i had no chance of getting my connecting flight at Heathrow..the next flight to Toronto was next day....i had to spent 14 hours on Heathrow waiting for my next flight....i wasn't provided any room accommodations food or water....i wasn't refunded any money for qatar airways messing up with the flight....
If you want to joke with your self fly with Qatar Airways....
That's so bad! I am sorry you had to go through that
Anyone have experienced layover at Istanbul airport by IndiGo?
I will be traveling soon
Good luck brother.
My ATQ to DEL flight was late by 2 hours. It was Jet airways. DEL-LHR flight waited for 45 mins for around 4 of us. We cleared immigration at Delhi faster than others. The minute 4 of us got in the aircraft. Pilot was like boarding complete! Crew:" Prepare for take-off"
Whole plane was staring at us for 45 mins delay we caused because of no fault of our own.
That's so nice! I had completely the opposite experience with Qatar Airways :(
why cant u study in Bharath? whats wr0ng with u
If the airline is same in conceting flights then two boarding passes issues from departure place or when we have to enter to the country there we have to take luggage again and again do boarding ? Kindly answer
For that they take extra charge ?
If a person is traveling with their airline they should take responsibility of travellers luggage to give their luggage on their final destination. Rather than allowing to travellers to pickup and again check-in with all the hectic procedures.
Bro my layover is at riyad international airport...i am traveling from Hyderbad to London Heathrow ...Do I required transit visa..or any thing to stay at riyad airport for 8 hours.. eagerly waiting for ur response
Hello sir.... I want to know tht if our flight is frm bomby to heathrow and we hve 2stop so har baar immigration question hoga???? Ya fir only 2tym. Tht ek baar bombay aur last heathrow...
Main prob here your airline big airlines like emirates, Qatar, eithad & gulf air still have a proper alternative about this situation ..
It was via qatar only bro. I booked the tickets on Qatar's website
this is the reason i never use india as transit.. very bad experience..
Worst experience with indigo airlines I too got a like experience
that's the only reason I don't prefer connecting flight
Are they stopping at uk airport while second time of students enter
This is the service of indigo airlines
Thats a horrible situation. Thank you for sharing.
I have one query sir, pls respond.
I booked flight with Lufthansa airlines which has two stops Mumbai and Munich. In mumbai the airline only provided 1 h 20 min of layover. is it sufficient to collect baggage, re-check in and for immigration??
Pls share ur opinion …
Anyone reading this comment can also share their valuable opinion.
Hi I'm thinking to take same airline how was your experience should i go for it ?
Brother which flight i should prefer from Mumbai to brimingham as a student? After watching this im scared of taking connecting flight.
Buddy take any direct flight to London and then go anywhere else for the first time
Do we require a transit visa of Qatar as well if the connecting flight is from doha for Dublin?
No Qatar does not require immigration for transit
Oh !! Sorry to know this !! This is so sad. No words :(
Your new flight from Qatar to London and then London to Edinburgh is covered by the Qatar airlines?
Yep
Bhi ma na priority visa apply kia tha may intake meri class start date 22 may ha visa pa valid from 22 june aii entry ma na resumbit krwaya ha kindly bata da kitna din ma return hoga aur kia ya application ab priority ha ka ni ? Plz reply
Thnkss
Thank you bro
Thx
Sir can you earn 80000 pound sterlings a year after graduation from university of Edinburgh in marketing? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.
in general, not at all.
Nope! Unless you have got like 10 years of work experience (that too in the UK or any other western market)
Bhaiya mujhko University of East London and bermingham city University se offer mila hai ug ke liye to aapke hisaab se uk aana best hai ya india mein rahke ug karna best hai
Buddy I suggest UG from India. It's cheaper plus you never know if PSW will remain by the time you will finish UG. But there could be many different factors to consider. So think about everything before making a final decision
bhai agar hum birmingham sea amritsar aye layover qatar main ho to kya transit visa chaiye k ni
No brother, Qatar Airways k layovers mein mera kabhi transit visa nahi laga
Dude. Tell me one thing. Why did you take indigo till Qatar and then Qatar airways to Edinburgh? Why not entire flight you took Qatar airways? 😶 9
Hey Rakesh! I booked the entire journey with Qatar. But they have a tie up with Indigo where passengers are brought to Qatar from India via Indigo, and then the remaining journey is with Qatar Airlines from Doha
@@Dream_UK thanks for this was literally contemplating booking this (Indigo+Qatar) DEL-EDI for family
Likely to do DEL-LHR now
@@Dream_UK btw Indigo has a Turkish airline tie up as well for EDI
But why did you have to do security check again at Doha. Do you have to go through immigration as well ? I am planning to travel to India next month from London via Doha on Qatar airways.
@Thakkapattar did you check-in again and collect baggage or it was transferred directly to next connecting flight.
