    Nice review on Qatar Airways economy class! I know lots of people cover their Business products, so its nice to see what to expect for the common flyer!

      So true and the price for Q Suite are no so cheap these days. I remember once seeing £1600 in Business to Australia. Many years ago 💷
      Solid product in economy, decent food and as always good in flight entertainment.

      I agree. Common fliers want to know the real thing, not some fancy business/first-class that only resonates with a small number of fliers. I last flew with Qatar in 2019. Good to know that the food is still decent 🙂

      My bag wasn't particularly heavy at 10kg so wasn't an issue. As for the cabin crew it all depends. They are human so some will be better than others. I didn't feel very chatty by the end of the second flight.
      Seat was as comfortable as you can get for economy. Food was good but there is only one option for the snack.

    The 3-4-3 seats across ‘club’ refers only to the B777.3-4-3 seating does not exist on any B787.The original B787 was meant to be 2-4-2,8 across,not 9 as they are now on most airlines except JL.3-4-3 on a B 787 would not work ,as the 3-3-3 they have today is hardly sustainable for minimal comfort on long hauls.If anyone knows about a carrier that flies the B787 with 3-4-3,plz let me know,it would def make it to my black list.Nice video,thanks.

    2:32 More forgiving? The 3-3-3 on the B787 Is just as bad, if not worse and tighter than the 3-4-3 on the B777.
    The B787 was designed for a 2-4-2 config, just like how the Boeing 777 was designed for the 3-3-3.
    The best Is A350, it’s wider than the B787 but slightly narrower than the B777, airlines cannot fit in that extra seat without making it extremely uncomfortable, hence it has a spacious 3-3-3 config, unlike the 787.

    • @liftoffandtravel
      @liftoffandtravel  10 місяців тому

      That's a good summary 👍 there isn't a lot of difference width wise but particularly on airlines like AA who cram in 3:4:3 it's noticeable. Can't even put your arms down by your side.
