That Omelette looks quite nice Carfield!

If anyone has the QR900 DOH PER F menu I'd be most grateful!

I'm on that flight in about 2.5 weeks - so will post if it hasn't been posted already.

I would eat on the ground. With the exception of caviar, the “First Class” offering was poor and underwhelming in every aspect: choice, quality, preparation and taste. Without doubt the poorest offering I’ve received on any airline.

Also note the Krug is no more.

SW7London

Thank you Tobias-UK for taking the time to post this.

Menu doesnt seem exceptional at all, and v similar to Qatar J (which I've experienced before travelling QR F to BKK). The Perth flight is a long one so was hoping for something pretty decent!

(and I also think the QR F bedding was poor on my previous flight compared to BA CX QF etc)

Pilot37

Wow - definitely not a menu to get excited by - many thanks for posting and for the advice to eat in the lounge, definitely will (and the 2.30am departure helps with that suggestion)

I’ll post the menu and my opinion once I take the flight in 2 weeks time.

Pilot37

lost_in_translation

Strongly disagree with the recommendation to eat on the ground given the food in Al Safwa is pretty poor, I would prefer to eat on the flight.

I agree with your general criticism on the quality of QR F catering from DOH which, by the way, *is* always just the J menu with a couple of extra dishes added which is why it feels like that. From LHR and CDG quality is materially better, probably better than basically any meal I’ve had in BA ‘F‘ as a point of reference. Krug disappeared at the end of last year.

Tobias-UK

That wasn’t a recommendation to eat in the lounge, the food there (Al Safwa) was even worse. My wife and I abandoned both appetiser and main, very poor.

Pilot37

Wow - from being a fan of QR (pre-covid) this ‘long’ trip with QR is not exactly filling me with joy based on your experience - thankfully it’s an Avios redemption flight!

Pilot37

Tobias-UK

I may have just been unlucky, and I genuinely hope your experience will be better than ours. Throughout our journey we did not experience anything that would suggest QR deserves its 5-star rating or its claim to be “the world’s best airline”. It was an underwhelming experience that did not live up to the hype.

I hope last week’s experience was a one-off, I have three more MAN-PER (return) trips booked over the next few months. Needing to be in Melbourne and Sydney in a couple of weeks, my return home will be on BA, and I feel rather relieved at that.

babyg_wc

Wow interested to hear why you are relieved to fly BA rather than QR? Unless there are some exceptional BA staff who elevate the onboard experience the BA hard/soft products in all categories are usually inferior when comparing to QR, with the exception of the CCR perhaps, as i agree the first class lounge in Doha is now sub par, but the T4 QR lounge is very good. I flew both recently and i would honestly swap any BA flights to QR without hesitation given the chance.
