DOH-BOS

 

[Flashback]

I'm on the right time of day this time, but nothing. LHR-DOH. I'm told it is ex-DOH only.

This announcement is such a non announcement.

This announcement is such a non announcement.

Looks like QF and QR do have something in common then

I'm told it is ex-DOH only.

Absolutely incorrect and sounds like the crew are telling you porkies

The wording in the press release also does just indicate ex-DOH also.

I've had 2 ex-LHR flights and it's never been loaded.

It also says later (perhaps not direct quoted from QR) that this is a list of destinations to/from Doha that has this course.

There has either been some inaccuracies or misunderstandings between QR and this article, or the hype is not being reflected in operations for whatever reason (could have been "enhanced" since the initial press release), or crew are coveting the caviar on some routes (should be much harder to do so since printed menus would clearly show the caviar available).

I suspect something was lost in translation with the media release as it is apparent that flights from DOH may have it but not others.

The staff were very clear that they do not do it unless the flight is FROM Doha.

Nope- I think it’s actually spot on from all I hear and read. Ex-Doha only and not on late night flights (though I’m not sure where the cut off is as a friend of mine got it on a 2:10am scheduled departure out of DOH).
