Our friends at Business Traveller, have filmed a video from within the suite.

QSuite
If you haven't, watch Qatar Airways' New Business Class advertisement. It shows how seats function.

Only 2 days to go, so no reason to start rumours. ;) As revealed previously (and exclusively) to Business Traveller‘s Middle East editor the new seat “…will be across the fleet in B777s and A350s, and we have a new seat development for the B787s as this new seat can’t fit in the 787”. |
So will be retrofitted to all aircraft it fits in - starting with the 777s.
|
Edit: I've now watched the 3D-Tour and by the looks of it I would tend to say that it is the forward section of an A350-1000. Regarding the seats, I only have to comments: The "family rooms" may get a little annoying if people start something similar to "kids table" in restaurants. I somewhat dislike the many violet tones. Other than that it looks rather promising. |
Oh wow. I think it looks amazing - especially all kitted out in QR's signature colour scheme.
Pretty similar to the Fusio (except the S shape of the seat backs mean they will be narrower). Foot wells look much more generous and the suite's flexibility will be great for couples or families travelling together - although I presume there will a moveable divide on the "double beds" for single travellers. Can't wait to try it! (Maybe by 2019?!?! :D) |

This is Flyertalk - 2 days to go means 48 hours of rumours and assumptions, leading to mass disappointment when we see what it looks like, and deciding we don't like it...a view that will be based on absolutely nothing but a photo released by the QR Press Team.
Within 3 hours, we will be critiquing the seat against all other carriers Within 4 hours, we will be assuming the cost increases to routes offering the new J seat Within 5 hours, we will be contemplating which routes will get the new J seat first Within 6 hours, we will be wondering when a Sale will happen, so we can book to try the new J seat (remembering we absolutely don't like it) Within 7 hours, myself and fellow Co-Mod will be removing posts about how CX and SQ offer a better product (despite the majority of posters writing, having never tried the product themselves) Within 10 hours everyone will be friends again, and AAB will have insulted someone which will make us laugh Within 12 hours we'll be praising the new J seat. Something like that I reckon :D M And apparently, first LHR, second CGD and third JFK :D Edit: Btw, some more pictures in that AirlineFlyer instagram :) |
Am assuming that when the new A380 (A7-APH) gets delivered, it will be fitted with the Q suite.
|
Can't wait to see the layout in the 777. AAB says that even going from 2-2-2 to 1-2-1, the aircraft will maintain the same 42 J seats in the same space. 380 and 787 have to have the design "tweaked" because the seats are too wide to fit.

I read somewhere that they will retrofit around 3 aircrafts per month which would take them a little over 1 1/2 year. |

This sounds reasonable, considering the sheer amount of seat pitch in the old 777 product (something I personally will miss, but the QSuite looks awesome nonetheless). Perhaps having the backwards facing seats too with foot cubby under the opposite pax table, helps cram more seats into the same cabin with the reduced 1-2-1 config. |

This looks extremely good. Will look forward to sampling it sometime in the next couple of years. In the meantime, will enjoy the current 777LR seat on a few trips coming up.
Now one has to wonder how the competition will react. And what BA will do... |
