AisleSeatTravellerParticipantapologies, my recent experience is of mediocre nosh (the flight from Doha to BKK was supposed to be middle eastern biryani, I’d say Saudia & Emirates were much better on this dish)
on the return flights I refused the food (although my original plan of eating in the cathay lounge backfired as it closes at 6:30pm)

AisleSeatTravellerParticipantI read of revamped economy class meals, the article says they will be bigger (hope they are better also, not just more of the same old excrement) – perhaps not enough to entice me back

LondonfrogParticipantCompletely agree with an opening post. I gave a try to Qatar for the first time in April – it was an eco comfy flight too – and decided I won’t do it again. I was extremely un-impressed especially with the food.

AisleSeatTravellerParticipantThanks LondonFrog, the crew where genuinely shocked when I refused the muck on the way back (unlike Singapore Airlines (whose food on regional services ain’t that special) didn’t offer an alternative (the SQ steward went above and beyond on the supply on gin & tonic across the whole 3.5 hour flight))
