Prologue:

On my previous report, I shared why I picked the B787, the other side of the coin for the flight back is the departure time: 2:30 am landing at 5am. It’s the worst possible flight for a visitor. I mean, you have to either book one more night in the hotel, wander in the city or go the lounge.
I choose the latter from both the Hilton Club lounge in Sentral where I remained until 4pm. I took the KLIA express and arrived in the lounge at 5pm.

After 1 night in Le Meridien and 1 night in Hilton It was time to head back to the airport with nearly 10 hours before departure. As much as I love lounges and airports

I made my way to Malaysia Airlines First Class Lounge. I went straight to the restaurant. I would say we are very far from a real First Class restaurant or experience. I would say

I can't deny that a flat bed is the best for a good night sleep.

I woke up 1 hour away from Doha and only ordered the meat wrap.

I would say it was not the best

Summary:

Another good flight with Qatar even if it's harder to give a notation since I spent most of my time lost in my dream...

Eric was professional and smiling to all my requests.

The lounge : The menu needs to be changed more often.

Even if I like the B787, I would try to avoid that flight for a full experience.

Thanks for reading.
