Compare koreanair with qatarair

I plan to visit Korea next month with my wife from Maldives.
We are Qatar member since long time ago.
We never took Korean air before so we plan to take qr which to via Doha to arrive Inchon in Korea. But recently I find Korean air also fly Maldives to Inchon, but there is no ticket office in male.

Korean air is ok for to take a long direct flight for 12hours?
Still there are issue peanut rage???


Thanks


From sunny island.

Korean Air travel time will be about 10.5 hours, including 2 hour layover in Colombo. The economy cabins are clean, bright, well kept. Service is polite and hospitable. I think you will enjoy.

Personally, I've never flown Qatar, but I'd imagine the service to be similar. If the price for Korean Air is fair, I'd avoid a layover in Doha. Unless, of course, you earn miles on Qatar.

Also, on Qatar, your flight itself is much longer. 13 hours or so with a three hour layover. In total, six hours longer. Both are overnight flights.

In Business, there isn't such a big difference in seat comfort, at least for the ICN route. I would personally be inclined to go for KE just for the quicker journey.
