  • WELCOME to Wandering Scholar, a 20 years old frequent flyer from Shanghai
    To all my subscribers, it is my pleasure to see you back !
    Qatar Airways is one of the top airlines in the world. The airline is known for its revolutionary Qsuite and top shelf beverage. However, very little marketing has been done for the carrier’s actual top shelf cabin - first class.
    The eight open plan suite at the front of Qatar’s A380 upper deck is the crown jewel of the airline’s offerings. While the cabin is understated without the customary A380 shower, the timeless Al Safwa ground experience to the vintage Krug and Grand Cru Classe on the wine list makes Qatar’s first class the pinnacle of air hospitality in the 21st century.

    Thank you #WanderingScholar for another enjoyable luxury flight experience. We all need to take notice of the A380 before it is gone. Local competitors like Emirates & Etihad keep the focus on giving their customers the best unlike American/Canadian airlines where we are treated like cattle in economy and suckers in business.
    As always, appreciate your time spent filming, editing, voicing, and captioning for us. As wave ( 7? hits Canada I hope you are staying safe, covid free and enjoying your summer.

    You use the terms Bourgeois as well Hoi Polloi quite a lot mostly in regards to the commotion beneath you. As someone who feels a need to apologize for my white, rich ancestry, do you feel that it is right to take over our transgressions? Just asking because you are a college student and perhaps you don’t need to use the terms “foot man”, hoi poloi, or bourgeois. Please don’t as I won’t employ the term Kleptocrat - ever: again.

    I'm sorry to have to admit to being a little disappointed with this video. I don't know why you wouldn't have given a better look at the menus, in the lounge and on board, in such a way as to make them readable. Even pausing the video didn't provide a clear complete view. I watch a number of videos like this, by many posters, and my favorite part (since I've seen pretty much every type of plane) is to see what different airlines offer their first class and business passengers in terms of food and beverage.

    Great editing on the video and given the subject and effort this channel deserves more subscribers. However, if I could give some feedback, you come across as trying a little too hard. The voice, the forced accent, and the awkward choice of words where it doesn’t always quite fit. Relax, you are already flying first class, there’s no need to voiceover and act so strained and unnatural.

    I dont know if you mean to but you project an air of arrogance and entitlement. Examples, 12 minute check in, wine in the lounge. I also know it's a review but try to emphasis the negatives in a tone or language sometimes that adds to the points above. You made a great video but I found it hard to warm to you, I was always on edge waiting for the next complaint.
