Prologue:

In 2015, I flew a lot within China using the Star Alliance Network.

While I came for few days in France for a break, I decided to buy a ticket to Bangkok In First from Paris. I needed more than 800 TP to renew my Gold card with British Airways.

The round trip would give me 840 points.

Arriving from Marseille by train, I arrived very late at check-in.

Let's see how my flight went !

I arrived 10 minutes before the cut off. It took less than a minute to be checked-in... I always travel light to avoid any loss...

Summary:

Flying First Class with Qatar is a safe bet.

While the main meal was behind the overall meal, I enjoyed my meal.

The comfort is what you can expect for a First Class.

I had the pleasure of being served by a Japanese FA.

Once again a good flight with QR !

Stay tuned for my flight to Bangkok !

Thanks for reading !

    Bonsoir, un vol qui fait bien sur rêver. Je vais reporter le même vol en Business. J'imagine que tu as dû déjà faire dans les 2 classes et noter les différences.

    Hello Marc,
    Tout à fait, mais la différence est vraiment faible.
    Merci :)
