Thank you for the quick reply, sturejan. This is what I feared. Pity... Would have been nice to use the seats, or I'd have also been happy to pay for a F ticket and get a proper 180 recline, but it seems neither options are viable.

This is the interior of the Al-Maha Airways A320 currently flying regional routes operated by QR. Al-Maha is a hybrid LCC carrier planned to be based in Saudi to fly domestic routes. This isn't the standard QR A320 recliner seat, nor is it a new product for QR's A320s.

What's the policy of using the F cabin on 2-class routes?
I am flying DOH-LOS on QR1407 next week, and from the seat map it seems they are using the last 3-class A330-300 on the route... Does anyone know if, at check-in, the first cabin is normally open to J passengers, or whether this is only used in case the extra capacity is needed?

So, it seems that there is really no policy and it is down to the specific flight.

Hi to all,
I have to fly FRA-DOH and DOH-SGN next January in J.
When I booked the FRA-DOH was scheduled on A350 but now on the website it's shown 777...I never flew neither on 777 nor on A350 but my impression is that the latter is more comfortable.....any experience?
The DOH-SGN is scheduled on A330-200.....do I have to expect the sloping seats or do you think they will meet the deadline to refurbish/take off from the fleet the plane?
It's my first time with Qatar and I hope they will beat the EY service earlier this year.
Thanks to all

pchen0 earlier this month there were 1 333 and 3 332s with sloping seats. It has been suggested that these will all be converted to flat seats or have left the fleet by the end of this year.
FYI: BCN appears to have been flown by one of the sloping seat aircraft during the last month but HKG has been entirely flat seats. But that is academic if the sloping seat aircraft are retired/refurbished as suggested.

Where do you check which plane is used on a route?

I have calculated, starting from June, that the 64,5% of DOH-SGN flight was not operated by a "slopedd J" aircraft (111 flights out of 172).
So, at least odds are with me
I have a "technical" question.
In the wiki is written:
332H v1: horizontal J B/E MiniPod seat in 2-2-2
332H v3: horizontal J, B/E Diamond seat in 2-2-2 config
332H v3: horizontal J, B/E Diamond seat in 2-2-2 config
Watt is the difference between the MiniPod and Diamond seat?
B/E means there are only 4 J rows?
Thanks in advance
Kite

Would anyone know if the bulkhead / row 1 seats in J on the refurbished A330s (Diamond seats) are a good option? Do they have any disadvantage compared to rows 2 and 3? I am somehow convinced that the IFE screen might be smaller as I recall spotting some differences on some pictures, but maybe I am being paranoid.
Thanks in advance to anyone that could shed some light on this!

KiteM,
Horizontal as in fully flat, the old sloped seats have a flat surface that is at an angle to the floor. All A332s have 4 rows of business, though the B/E MiniPod version has one row behind the galley and 3 in front of it.
I don't have the photos at hand, but the MiniPod seat is similar to the 777 business class seat which you can find easily find photos of online. They are traditional forward facing seats. The seats are burgundy.
The Diamond version has similar aesthetics to the 787/350/380 business class seat, and is in a reverse herring bone layout but at 2-2-2, there are photos of it in this thread. It is a charcoal coloured seat.
This Diamond seat is narrower than the MiniPod seat but I actually prefer it to the MiniPod seat as it is more comfortable to me in the up-right and semi-reclined position, but its narrowness really shows if you lay it flat and are a side sleeper in which case the MiniPod is better for me.

Very appreciated ^
I hope to find an horizontal J only because we're flying with our 21 months old boy on lap.....sloped seat will be very uncomfortable.
