    hi! thank you for such a great video. I have a few questions if possible
    my transit at doha is 45 mins and was wondering if you think that’s long enough? as i’m scared my flight may be delayed
    also, during security, is it similar to pre-pandemic where you take everything out?

    • @JustinThailand
      @JustinThailand  2 роки тому

      Sorry for late answer. 45 minutes is short, but should be ok, but you are very vulnerable if your flight is delayed. Yes, security is same before Covid19. Hope you have a great travel.

    Thank you again for sharing!!

    • @JustinThailand
      @JustinThailand  3 роки тому +2

      The airport is because of the Covd19 not crowded at all, so you shouldn't have any problem finding a quiet place to sit down and relax. I was using the Oryx Lounge. Not that big lounge, and the food selection was ok.

    • @JustinThailand

      Hi. The airline will normally check in your luggage to your final destination. During check in, you just ask the staff if they have checked in your luggage to your final destination. If they can't do that, and you need to collect your luggage and do a new check in, there is no difference luggage belts for arrival and transfer regarding collecting luggage.

      Normally, and if no big delays, 70 minutes will be enough. Regarding security control, I am not 100% sure :) When I arrive from Europe I have to go through the security control, but when im arriving from Bangkok, Thailand I don't have to go through the security control. I don't know why, but I will try to find out the reason. So as of now, I don't know if you have to go through the security control or not.

Had a 20+ layover no hotel was provided 6months preg with a child and the food voucher they gave didn’t work. I had to pay $160 for a mini bunk bed room no toilet or bath for 7 hours only.

      So sorry to hear that. Even the Lounges is overcrowded. I have Priority Pass, but been told many times its full, and come back in 2 hour. The only place I found some place to sit down and relax, is if you go towards the Gate, you will find some lesser crowded places there. They sure need to do something about this. So, I agree with. you Tozzy, there should be some alternatives if you been stranded there, especially if you're pregnant.
