BA vs EY vs EK vs QR Y Class?

[brha01]

Hi Folks

In the process of booking some international travel over the next 6 months and seeking your thoughts on Y Class on BA, EY, EK, QR. As in, all other things being equal, what order would you put them in by way of preference and why.

Specifically I am referring to:
BA on the 747 and 777
EY on the A330 and A346
EK on the A345, A380 and 777
QR on the A330, A346 and 777

Also, any thoughts on Dubai vs Abu Dhabi vs Doha as a stopover destination for a couple of days to see/experience the Middle East?

Many thanks

Only flown EK and BA long haul. EK much better overall product. Flown QR short haul - absolutely terrible, but i don't think can be compared to their long haul product from what i have heard.

Avoid Doha unless you only plan on staying in 5 star hotels. Very little to do for more than 1 day.

Dubai/Abu Dhabi good for a visit; Dubai slightly wins as more to do for multiple days.
