Catering is hot and cold and more than adequate for what is basically a low cost terminal.

Seems that this Marhaba lounge is operated by Emirates if you take the napkin as any guide.
Thanks for picking up this post.
It shows you what a wonderful community FT is.

Oh well, luckily I'm travelling with a close friend !!
We are flying into AUH early morning, spending time doing touristy stuff, then motoring down to DWC.
We will be flying QR via DOH, 23:59 out of DWC and 23:59 (time change) into DOH. Then 01:55 out of DOH for a 10:35 arrival into JRO.

Gosh knows what the new DOH airport lounges provide with shower availability (a 1:55 transit), but I reckon there is a chance that we could arrive JRO, smelling like hogs.

Booking the return J flight out of DWC was $1K cheaper but I've a feeling I have been too smart for my own good.
Foiled by two new airports, no less.
