TRIP REPORT | First Time on Qatar Airways A380! | London to Doha | QATAR AIRWAYS Airbus A380

Qatar Airways Trip Report flying from London to Doha onboard one of the Qatar Airways A380s on a beautiful winter day both in Europe and Asia.

A comfortable flight from London Heathrow T4 to Doha Hamad International onboard the Qatar Airways Airbus A380-800. This was my first time flying on the Qatar Airways A380 and I must say it's a great plane, like any other A380 I've flown to date. However, I felt that other A380s had more legroom than this one. I'm not saying it wasn't good, but the legroom could be better.

We took off from Rwy 27R in London Heathrow. Just after departure we made a 180° turn to the left and started our route towards Doha. We crossed the English Channel and entered Belgium, flying towards Brussels. From there we flew over Cologne, Frankfurt, and Nuremberg, before entering Austria. We overflew Linz and Vienna, flying towards the Balaton Lake in Hungary. From there we flew towards Serbia and Bulgaria.

We then reached the Black Sea, which was fully covered by clouds. We entered Turkey and, luckily, the clouds disappeared when we were starting to fly over the Zagros Mountains. This was the first time I saw them fully covered by snow. It was really amazing! We flew then over Iraq until we reached Basrah. From there we flew towards Kuwait City and entered the Persian Gulf, flying in direct course to Doha, where we landed ahead of schedule after a beautiful night approach.

About the onboard service, around 1h after departure, the crew served the main catering service which for this flight was breakfast. I went for the Chicken sausage with scrambled eggs. It came with some fresh fruit, a warm croissant with marmalade, and yogurt. Everything was quite tasty, but once again, I found the size of the warm meal really small. That was the reason why I asked for another one if available. The crew said that for sure I could, they had spare meals. With that second one, I felt it was a perfect meal size for the 5h connecting time I would have in Doha.

Around 2h before landing the crew offered a snack. It was a chicken pastry (also called "All Day Snack"). It was warm, which is something I really appreciate... but it wasn't anything special. Very plain in flavor and it didn't look very healthy. Good for a snack but I guess you expect more from the airline that was awarded 7 times as the best in the world.

Now it's your turn!

"3 boys that didn't know what a good education is" Charming comment.

I genuinely appreciate the inclusion of the safety demo during taxi – it adds a reassuring touch to the flight experience. Hearing fellow passengers chatting during climb-out brought back fond memories and brought a smile to my face. Even though I'm a frequent flyer now, it reminds me of my early days of flying. Kudos to maintaining these aspects! On a related note, just like the comfort of a smooth flight, I rely on Express Parking for stress-free and efficient parking solutions whenever I travel. Their service ensures a hassle-free start and end to my journeys.

Great video again this week. 😊 Qatar Airways was super & I always love seeing the giant bear at the Doha airport . Food did look 😋 delicious. You were right about the boys behind you . I would rather have the quiet & totally behaved service dog you had on one of your flights earlier. Be safe. 🙋🏼‍♀️👍🏻🇺🇸✈️

[jmaxim]

Nice video. I particularly enjoyed the landscape views and the info you provided. Doha looks awesome from above.

[cunus]

Wow, that person sitting next to you was particularly annoying. That would have annoyed me for sure. Apart from that, it seemed like a good flight.

[gorkemgorgec]

I'm really glad to see “Türkiye” instead of “Turkey”. Also at 18:13 there are Türkiye flag on the huge building due to earthquake as an earthquake survivor ı really speacial thank to Qatari people.

This trip report shows the true experience that 85% of travellers, like us, go through, on our travels. The other 15% are fortunate to get to fly in business and first class, and avoid all those annoying young children passengers as well as wailing infants. Many thanks for another excellent trip report!👏👏👏👍👍👍

[ivankychkin]

Beautiful Mountain View’s, really nice to enjoy nature seen from the window, which is most important part of any flight! Food is nice and beautiful, would love to fly QR!!!

[TheFoxyb]

Another bucket list for me. To fly the 380, looked like a great flight!

[andyjackson]

Another excellent trip report, we flew on the A380 last year in business with Qatar on our way to Thailand and they were exceptional. Thanks for sharing such interesting reports of great quality. Safe travels

[hussainahmedsherpuri]

Flew many times with this Aircraft. Qatar Airways excellent service both ground handling and on air.

[hansinkoppada]

It's sad now that they are getting grounded again 😢. This aircraft is a beauty and it's so comfortable to fly on it

[rudivandoornegat]

Still amazes me how immense some airports are. At taxiing and landing I could see only lights of the airport as far as you can see.

[jazzmed]

Very good videography short and crispy with all the announcement and safety demo... Qatar Airways always my BEST Airline

[MrDumlack]

Hello, greetings from Germany (Nuremberg) Once again a great video, many thanks for that. In your video I have for the first time in a Youtube
Flight video seen my hometown Nuremberg. Thank you and keep up the great videos.

[Sumiin_benji_glooscap]

[johnmira]

Thanks for this excellently detailed trip report. I will be experiencing my first flight on the A380 though I have flown many trips with other aircrafts. I intentionally route my flight to Africa via Doha. I was planning to document my trip but you've done such a good job with this documentary that made me shelve the idea of repeating what you've done. In addition, I wouldn't be able to do a better job. I enjoyed every bit of the report and watching others from your channel as well. Thank you.
