Taken January 2004 from Frankfurt/Main - FRA to Dubai - DXB

Old Airbus A300 used on Frankfurt-Doha-Dubai-Doha-Frankfurt,

who clearly shows its age. In-seat video just on some of the new A330. It was very hot in the cabin in Dubai and Doha before take-off. Even in an Arabian summer other airlines can manage a fair air-conditioning of the cabin. I wonder why it is not possible on Qatar Airways A300. Friendly cabin service by Indian stewards and Korean stewardesses. Tasty meals with three choices and

a snack before landing. Service efficient, but drinks were just offered during meals. Seat distance - as always in Economy - very limited.

Not QR's fault, but transfer at Doha airport is a shame for the airline: Not enough seats a the departure lounge, huge queues everywhere, including the toilets.

Overall QR is a good airline, but with 5 skytrax stars highly overrated in Economy class.
