Qatar Airways Review : Qsuite from IAH to DOH with Two Kids Under Five
Traveling with young children can often be a challenging experience, but our recent journey from Houston to Doha with Qatar Airways turned out to be a delightful and smooth adventure, thanks to their exceptional Qsuite service
Check-In and Boarding
The check-in process at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport was efficient and family-friendly. The staff was courteous and quick to assist us with our baggage and ensured that our kids, a 5-year-old daughter Avaya and a 2-year-old son Neal, were comfortable. Boarding was equally seamless, with priority boarding for families, allowing us to settle in without the usual rush.
Qsuite Experience
The highlight of our journey was undoubtedly the Qsuite experience. This innovative business class cabin allowed us to transform our seating arrangement into private spaces tailored to our family’s needs. Avaya, our 5-year-old daughter, delighted in savoring her favorite hot chocolate and delicious blueberry ricotta pancakes, perfectly prepared to her liking. Neal, our energetic 2-year-old son, enjoyed a refreshing smoothie alongside the same delightful pancakes.
The Qsuite setup for our family of four included a double suite configuration for my husband and Neal, featuring seats that could be converted into a spacious double bed. Avaya and I were situated in a nearby twin suite, providing us with ample space and privacy while still being conveniently close to each other. This setup allowed us to enjoy the journey together as a family while also having the flexibility to create personal spaces when needed.
In-flight Entertainment and Service
Qatar Airways’ in-flight entertainment system offered a vast array of movies, TV shows, games, and music, catering to both children and adults. The cabin crew were attentive and accommodating, ensuring our children were entertained and comfortable throughout the flight. Their professionalism and warm demeanor added to the overall pleasant experience onboard.
Flight Comfort and Amenities
The flight from Houston to Doha was smooth and comfortable, thanks to Qatar Airways’ commitment to providing top-notch amenities and a spacious cabin environment. The seats in the Qsuite were luxurious and ergonomically designed, allowing us to rest and sleep comfortably during the long journey.
Qsuite Features
The Qsuite’s innovative design includes sliding privacy doors, allowing passengers to create their own private space within the cabin. The seats can also be converted into a double bed, ideal for families traveling together. The attention to detail in amenities such as plush bedding, noise-canceling headphones, and amenity kits further enhanced our comfort and relaxation throughout the flight.
Arrival in Doha
Upon arrival in Doha, the transition was smooth. The assistance provided by the ground staff in navigating the airport and managing our luggage was much appreciated. The efficient immigration process and family-friendly facilities at Hamad International Airport made our arrival stress-free.
Conclusion
Our journey from Houston to Doha with Qatar Airways in the Qsuite was an unforgettable experience. The combination of exceptional service, luxurious comfort, and thoughtful amenities made traveling with our 5-year-old daughter Avaya and 2-year-old son Neal a breeze. We highly recommend Qatar Airways to families looking for a stress-free and enjoyable long-haul flight.
