Qatar Airways Unveils Highly Anticipated ‘Qsuite Next Gen’
On
the first morning of the Farnborough International Airshow 2024, Qatar Airways
Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer, unveiled the new,
ultra-modern ‘Qsuite Next Gen’. This latest iteration of the award-winning
Qatar Airways Qsuite brings the World’s Best Business Class in commercial
aviation to new heights. The reveal was held in the presence of His Excellency
Jassim bin Saif bin Ahmed Al Sulaiti, the Qatari Minister of Transport; and Mr.
Mohamed Faleh Alhajri, Acting President of Qatar Civil Aviation Authority.
In
the Qatar Airways Discover Lounge at the Farnborough International Airshow,
Engr. 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 World's Best Airline has once again
redefined luxury and innovation, elevating the industry’s benchmark in business
class experiences.
During
the reveal, Engr. 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.
Qatar
Airways Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr. Badr Mohammed Al-Meer, said: “We
are excited to have finally revealed the long-awaited Qsuite Next Gen at the
Farnborough International Airshow. 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.”
Qsuite
Next Gen
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 – a hallmark of Qatari heritage, as well added
privacy with taller, digitally controlled dividers. 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.
Adopting
new technologies for increased passenger convenience and connectivity, the
Qsuite Next Gen delivers a vast array of customisation options, ranging from
ambient lighting to privacy controls, through its upgraded touchscreen
Passenger Control Units.
The
Qsuite Next Gen will be featured on-board the Qatar Airways Boeing B777-9
aircraft by 2025.
