I flew in the ‘world’s best’ business class where the luxury is next level. See inside Qatar Airways’ Airbus A350 QSuite.

• I flew in Qatar Airways’ QSuite business class, which Skytrax named as the world’s best for 2024.
• Thanks to the plush suite with a sliding door and the friendly cabin crew, it felt super luxurious.
• Top-notch food and generous pours on the drinks really elevated the luxury experience.

Qatar Airways‘ signature QSuite business class was named the world’s best business class at this year’s Skytrax awards, often called the aviation industry’s Oscars.

I was able to try it out last month on an Airbus A350 from London Heathrow to Doha for a media event the next day: Qatar’s first flight offering Elon Musk’s Starlink.

The seat could lie flat and came with a host of controls for flexible adjustments, while the sliding door’s privacy added to the feeling of luxury. Some of the airline’s older aircraft, such as the A380, have different business-class seats without sliding doors.

Pajamas from The White Company, a Diptyque amenity kit, and Swiss chocolates added to the experience. The tasty meals and extensive drinks list made my seven-hour flight go by quickly, and the friendly cabin crew was also top-notch.
