Part 5 – First Vacation in the Persian Gulf, Doha, Qatar


The FA very nicely blocked the cabin between Business and Economy Class pax.
So the 3 J pax in their own Premium Shuttle quickly departed without waiting for the rest of the folks. Due to my previous mishap, I went to the Premium Terminal to sort out my boarding passes. And soon after a new bp was issued, the agents found me another premium bus to take me to the arrival terminal. That new airport can’t come soon enough as this place is full of buses.



As a QR J passenger, I was welcomed to go through a Priority immigration Line saving me a 5 min wait and avoiding the rest of the folks.
And after a quick credit card swipe for the Visa on Arrival fee, I entered into Qatar.

I immediately headed over to the Hyatt Counter in the Arrivals Terminal, as my Limo was pre-arranged, a quick check-in took place at the airport but my room wasn’t ready as of yet.

We wouldn’t want all the cars to get melted in the Desert


BMW 7 Series, not bad for a 25-30 minutes ride, the Hyatt counter lady was rolling the bag for me



As it was on the way to the Hyatt, I got the driver to make 1 stop on the Corniche to get a shot of the Doha Skyline and the Emiri Diwan



And half hour later with no traffic, I arrived at the Grand Hyatt Doha






*Yes I know I came in at Daytime hours but the Night lobby pics are more impressive.

I was assigned a Grand Suite King on the 2nd floor and was also given club access on the 5th floor
