On board? I don't ever see that happening. Imagine the following scene in the J/F lounge on the 380.
"May I have a glass of Krug, please?"
"May I see your boarding pass? ... Oh, I see that you are not one of our first class passengers. In that case, I have this lovely bottle of André® from the wineries of Ernest and Julio Gallo which I'm sure that you will enjoy." [spoken with nose slightly elevated]

No sign of Krug on either CDG-DOH yesterday or DOH-NRT today. On CDG-DOH (A380) the FA was pretty sure there should be some in the lounge, but the lounge attendant said they only had Billecart, and it did not sound like they just ran out.

Greeted by the CSM shortly after boarding my flight from BKK-LHR at the end of March.
During our chat I asked if there would be Krug in the onboard lounge. He said, "ah you know what you're doing. Yes there will be plenty of Krug in the lounge".
When I got there the FA said that she din't think any had been loaded but she would check. She disappeared behind the curtain and returned empty handed. She said that she had checked "all six bars" but none had been loaded.
I told her not to worry and told her I'd tell her CSM off for leading me astray
Later on, after I returned to my seat, the FA from the bar came over put a flute of Krug down on my table and said, "There you go, I managed to find you a glass in the First Class cabin".
Awesome service ^

Currently in Al Safwa, no Krug here either... worrying times. Apparently it wasn't delivered, yet someone remembered to deliver an alternative Champagne (tastes like Billecart).
They've also not seen my bag that Qatar lost three days ago either, I think it reflects badly on me that I'm not sure which bothers me the most?

This isn't really news, but no Krug in the Al Mourjan Business Lounge on April 15, 2016.
The bartender indicated that it had been removed completely "due to differentiate the lounge product from that of the First Class lounge".
Still a terrific business lounge facility all up. . .

Just to chime in, there was Krug in the Whalejet out of Doha a few days back. I accidentally got shunted on to a Whalejet and there was only one other traveller in F, and according to the crew it was his first F experience, so I told them to give him the run of the menu and all the Krug he wanted. All I had was a couple of glasses of water and a cup of tea before landing. The rest I just slept away.

PS: Surely I'll be pelted with rotten eggs in here for not even having a single drop of Krug.

No Krug in Al Mourjan today (24/4/16). Also rose bubbly has been downgraded, believe was previously Billecart-Salmon now smaller local producer. Not great. The white champers on CMB-DOH was B-S which was nice, Rose was Drappier. First world problems.
