After a few days, it was time to fly some more. Singapore to Bali is flow by several airlines, but due to good reviews, we chose Qatar. Ticket was booked well in advance, which ended up being a problem. When checking in, the personnel requested to see the card I used to pay the ticket. Since it had been paid so long ago, I did not have that card anymore. It was a co-branded card, and I destroyed it when I got a new one as my frequent flyer status changed. They had to call Doha, and asked me to call my credit card company and get a confirmation. I refused. They asked me to buy a new ticket, and get a refund for the first one afterwards. Again, I refused. After a while, they said it was ok. Not very impressed with Qatar here, and I decided to think long and hard before ever flying with the airline again. Anyway, here is the report from the flight.
Qatar uses SATS premier lounge, which was pretty standard. Not crowded, and an ok selection of food and drinks, and even some view of the tarmac

I really like Qatars 77W, and they have a great business class layout. Cabin is fresh and modern.



Excellent leg room


Sleeping position



Spacious cabin on the 77W


We were in the forward business cabin


Flowers are a nice touch



All seats are on the same row, which gives lot less privacy than Singapores layout


Seat controls, with massage function
