BKK-DOH today: As per the purser no Krug in J but will be served at the lounge.

The lounge also served Taittinger Rose while in F Billecart-Salmon was on the list (it was excellent, I had plenty).

Krug -> Taittinger

So I'm hearing that Krug has been switched for Comtes de champagne. Can anyone that flew F in the past few days comment?

This was on the LHR route

14.11 they had Krug at A380 bar (DOH-CDG). Did you ask for Krug? At Doha lounge if you just ask Champagne you seem to get same Jacquart that they serve for J now but I got Krug when I asked it by name.

So is this the famous "Krug" that everyone on this forum likes?

I saw this in TLV airport Duty Free.

Yeah so from SENNINHA's comments above, I think this appears to be a permanent change for F (and thus the A380 bar) that started literally few days ago.

Pretty happy with the change as the Taittinger is a great vintage but I still have a soft spot for Krug on QR.

Not me. IMO terribly overrated. It seems to have a life of its own that revolves around image.

I prefer the Pol Roger rose, but have not seen any since September, flying J next week thus curious A380 and Al Mourjan, but Y this week, pending upgrade....

Asked for Krug at Al Moujan 20 November, none available but was offered BC Salmon. Flew A380 Doha to BKK in J and Jacquart served at the seat but Comtes available at the bar, it was very nice and I think as good as Krug and 100% better than the Jacquart.

I won't turn down Krug but there are quite a few champers I've had on planes that I prefer to Krug (Pol Roger SWC on QF, Salon on JL although of course the price range is different there). Would be good to see QR switch so as to differentiate from EK.

Flew DOH-BKK on November 23rd and was offered Comtes '06 at lounge on board. Agreed with some of you here that I prefer it to Krug. Still got Krug serve at Al Moujan though I had to specifically ask for it.....
