Prologue:
After my flight from HBE, I had 13 hours ahead of me...While I love spending time in the lounge, 12 hours with no proper place to sleep aside from the quiet area.. I left DOH airport to reach town for a short night... I faced an unusual issue at the hotel and decided to leave the hotel at 2 am (more on that soon with the hotel report).
Shall we ;-)
Boarding pass issued in HBE
The taxi left me here.
Beautiful check-in wall.
Business class check-in on the right. Security was done in 30s flat.
I then made my way to the stunning lounge.
I quickly went to eat something since I wanted to work before boarding.
Biryani rice with lamb. Quite good.
Hungarian meat which was a good surprise.
my choice at 2:30 am...
View from the restaurant. It put into perspective on how huge the lounge is.
Let's see some deserts.
Table area in the restaurant.
Wandering to the business center where I'll be spending the next 4 hours.
Boarding ? No... As I approached the security and handed my BP
My bird for the 13:45 minutes flight to Boston.
The seat. One of the best in the sky while the Qsuite is not in service.
The screen is different compared to the one in the B787.
Seat panel
Kit and pajama.
Let's see what's on the menu today.
Push-back
B787
B777
IFE control
Legroom
You can also control the sreen with your fingers. Easier for me.
Take off ! The video can be found on youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAIS02vmOF4&t=1s
Smoothie. Good but to heavy for me.
The First service was just underwhelming... Nothing was done in order and my cereal was forgotten.. not a big deal.
While the Balik salmon was good. With no salt and pepper nor olive oil. It was bland. The presentation is so-so.
When everything was done
I made my bed and slept like a rock for 4 hours.
The bar.
After my nap
Tail camera... I can't get bored... I then used the voucher given on my First Class flight to work.
Fast forward we were 2 hours away from landing and I was starving. Hopefully the service will be better than the first one. Oh gosh. The table is set up by the FA.
My soup arrived.
Tasty !
Prawns and salmon
Then came the red snapper.
The picture can't do justice on such a lovely meal.
Dacquoise biscuit. A great desert to finish off the meal.
What a view (I made it my phone wallpaper)
Almost there.
Landing.
Last view on my A350.
========== Doha International Arpt (DOH) - ==========
========== Qatar Airways Al Mourjan Business Lounge ==========
========== Qatar Airways - Airline ==========
========== Logan Intl Arpt (BOS) - ==========
Summary:
Lounge:Along with TK and Virgin Club House, Al Mourjan Lounge is just great :
- Staff, always proactive, they are a big asset.
- Business center : Everything is there to make you stay productive.
- Catering : Great and they do change the buffet.
Too bad the quiet area was full when I wanted to rest.
Flight :
While it's always a pleasure having the A350 cabin, the hard product can't do the flight itself unless you sleep all the way which the guy behind me did.
The breakfast service left me speechless. Distant crew. It was a surprise since I got used to have a great service.
With the crew shift, the service was much better.
The lunch was superb.
Stay tuned for my next flight on the B777 bound to DOH.
Thanks for reading !
