FlyerTalk Forums - The Q Suite Master Thread

Hello All.

Flying OSL - DOH in January. Is it possible to set up an expert flyer alert to see if aircraft changes from A350-900 without Q Suite to aircraft with Q Suite? Thanks

In theory, "new aircraft alert" works. I understand that it uses the aircraft code that generates the seat map.

Yes, the "Aircraft Change" alert is designed to generate an alert if the aircraft type or seating configuration changes.

my stockholm to doha non-qsuite A350 in november (24th) had been upgraded to qsuites a few days ago, but now my doha to stockholm non-qsuite A350 in december (11th) has been downgraded to an old non-qsuite 777!!!

Seat controls freeze

Hi, currently on board my first Q suites configured flight.
A few hours into the flight, my seat and the one behind had the controls become non-responsive.

Apparently, in these early days, this happens often.
Today, both responded to manual levers under the seat, which some staff are aware of.
This does not always work as a temporary fix however.

Rest of the flight, I need to call staff to manually move seat up and down etc.

That would really annoy me. I've only had one QSuites flight, and no problems. That said, I'm just as happy with the window seats on the 359 and 388. It would be nice if those plates of small bites from QSuites aircraft were also available on the 388 and 359 in J.

Do you need a subscription to set this alert? I can’t find the “new aircraft” option on free app!

I believe the EF free service is limited to a subset of seat alerts. All other services require a paid service, although I believe EF offers a free trial of the paid service. Years back, when I first signed up for EF, I wasn't sure it was worth it, but I find that now that I have it, I use it all the time for all sorts of queries and alerts.

I could be wrong, but every flight I have searched between AMS-DOH between now and april 2019 appears to be an old 777 (seat pitch 78 inches, seat recline 177 degree recline)?

Every flight between now and Nov 7th is Q Suite. Then it gets very sporadic for a while, December is fairly heavily Q Suite and then in Jan it’s all Q Suite except Monday’s & Thursday’s. QSuite =77P and non being 77N/ I on Qr cargo site.

Does that mean that the Qatar website is incorrect. It shows a 777-300ER with "177 degree recline" and "Seat width 21.82 inches" on e.g. Nov 6th (same as on Nov 8th). That does not sound like a Q suite?

My OSL-DOH flight in July is a 787. Are they currently A350 then?

I have noticed that QR website shows different layout on their site when searching for flights than what EF shows. One example, IKA-DOH 27.10 QR0499. Qr website shows the old config, while EF shows Qsuite. Any idea what`s correct?
