I am a bit surprised that they didn't add loads on their ex-China flights. QR currently does 3 flights a week out of CKG and CTU, 6 flights a week out of PEK and 7 flights a week out of CAN & PVG. I thought there would be enough Chinese tourists to fill in Y if they do sale price ex China.

Are there really only 25 on the first flight?

Today morning the showers had 'Under maintenance' signs on the doors and the staff had no information when they might re-open.

Silly me! I always seem to book QR flights during Ramadan (it's not something I check for beforehand).

I wonder if alcohol will still be available in the lounge here? I guess not in DOH (glad I've got the hotel in DOH rather than having to spend 9 hours in a dry lounge).

Doha becomes trying for non-believers in the holy month ....

You're very unlikely to find interesting beverages in the minibar, even outside Ramadan. My memory is hotels (OK, my hotel!) were dry during the month itself.

You can count on zero alcohol being for sale or in the lounges during the entire month of Ramadan in Qatar. However, if you are travelling through Dubai or Bahrain, alchohol is for sale.

Showers were out of service this AM (March 5).
The 8:35am A380 was full in business and the lounge was almost empty. I don't where all the people are going.
It's a bit difficult to find.

Op ups? BKK was full of them the last few times I've flown there

Grrrrr, I was congratulating myself on a particularly good routing on QR, albeit involving a 5hr layover in one direction, and 7hrs on the return... Just Googled, and it's slap bang in the middle of Ramadan. It's not that I'm a particularly massive drinker, but there's only so much else you can do in Al Mourjan for that long...

Indeed. I just booked a redemption ex-Asia J+Y (in the middle of Ramadan) because if I took the J+F option it would mean 7+ hours in Al Safwa, with no alcohol to ease the boredom.... .....I took the 90 minute connection in Y

Shorts not permitted & shoulders must be covered

Flying J class.Presently using the new Qatar Airways Lounge in Bangkok before flying to Doha and Stockholm. My husband and I both stopped on entry and asked if we were made aware of dress code at check in desk. My husband was wearing three quarter length cargo type shorts. I was wearing trousers with sleeveless round neck top. Staff stated dress code applied to all Qatar Lounges throughout world after we explained there hasn't been an issue anywhere else.

I was only permitted after putting on long sleeved cardigan. Staff got my husband Qatar Airways pyjama bottoms to wear.

Have spotted several men in pyjama bottoms. Dress code being strictly enforced.

Currently it seems hat QR is trying everything to “tease” or bettter annoy their customer.
I would appreciate a rule to use “closed shoes” for men, as the sight of the toes of some doesn’t look appealing ;-)
But then QR would have to “advise” mainly people in Middle East clothes ;-) and I guess, that never will happen ...

They're most probably not aiming to appeal to you But I suppose we all have our foibles in tolerating the eccentricities of others: panama hats set me off
