Qatar Airways Unveils Massive 'Next Gen' Suites — See Inside
23.07.2024 - 14:32 / travelandleisure.com / Badr Mohammed Al-Meer
Qatar Airways flies one of the best business class seats in the sky, and now the airline is upping its game with a 2.0 version.
Qatar’s “Qsuite Next Gen,” will feature companion suites in window aisles in addition to its current middle aisle quad suites, new 4K OLED maneuverable entertainment screens (that can be fully pushed back), even more privacy than before, and an AI Digital Human cabin crew member named Sama. The seat was revealed at an international airshow in England and shared with Travel + Leisure on Monday.

“Qatar Airways has once again raised the bar for its award-winning product, the Qsuite,” Qatar Airways Group CEO Badr Mohammed Al-Meer said in a statement, calling it “the future of business class travel.”
The airline's legendary Qsuites currently welcome travelers with sliding doors for privacy, center aisle suites that can be turned into double beds, and incredible on-demand, à la carte dining (pro tip: try the Arabic mezze). But the 2.0 versions will now include taller, digitally controlled dividers as well as larger lie-flat and double beds in its quad suites and a brand-new way to combine suites by the windows. As a bonus, there will be a new dedicated ‘make my bed’ feature for turn-down service.
Qatar said it plans to introduce the newer Qsuites on its Boeing B777-9 aircraft by 2025.
Last month, the Doha-based airline was named the overall best airline in the world by airline rating organization Skytrax thanks to its excellent service and top-of-its-class business suite.
But that over-the-top business class experience doesn’t stop once you land. It continues on the ground with Qatar’s incredible business class lounge in Hamad International Airport (DOH), which features more than 100,000 square feet, semi-private napping rooms, two dining rooms, a game room, and more.
Qatar flies to several cities in the United States, including Atlanta, Miami, Houston, New York, Dallas, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, and San Francisco.
