FARNBOROUGH, UK: Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer Eng Badr Mohammed Al Meer unveiled the new, ultra-modern ‘Qsuite Next Gen’ at the Farnborough International Airshow 2024.
The Qsuite brings the World’s Best Business Class in commercial aviation to new heights, Qatar Airways said. The reveal was held in the presence of Minister of Transport H E Jassim bin Saif bin Ahmed Al Sulaiti, and Acting President of Qatar Civil Aviation Authority Mohamed Faleh Alhajri.
In the Qatar Airways Discover Lounge at the Farnborough International Airshow, Eng Al Meer introduced the Qsuite Next Gen with Sama – the World’s First AI Digital Human cabin crew. Sama built up the audience’s excitement through an interactive conversation on how the airline has once again redefined luxury and innovation, elevating the industry’s benchmark in business-class experiences.
Eng Al Meer highlighted the Qsuite Next Gen’s new and enhanced features, including fully customisable Quad Suites; Companion Suites in window aisles; 4K OLED manoeuvrable in-flight entertainment (IFE) screens; along with increased space and privacy in each suite.
Eng Al Meer, said: “Qatar Airways has once again raised the bar for its award-winning product, the Qsuite. We look forward to welcoming media and partners to our stand throughout the week to experience the future of business class travel with the World’s Best Business Class onboard the World’s Best Airline.”
The game-changing Qsuite Next Gen aims to facilitate a mindful work-life balance with its revolutionary attributes for all professionals, friends, and families. The redesigned Quad Suite is now equipped with movable 4K OLED Panasonic Astrova IFE screens – a first for any airline in the world. The screens can be repositioned to the side to create the largest social and productivity space in the sky for up to four passengers in the Quad Suite, and up to two passengers in the Companion Suite.
Rest and relaxation on board, the Quad Suite has also been enhanced with increased space for dining together. With larger lie-flat and double beds, the new Quad Suite will also offer the 5-star Qatar Airways turn-down service with a dedicated ‘Make My Bed’ feature.
The new Companion Suite has similar characteristics to the Quad Suite, now with the noteworthy revamp of offering the same shared space in window aisles.
