The Qatar Airways 777-300ER we'd be touring was towed to the general aviation terminal at JFK — it would operate flight QR702 to Doha later that evening.
Qatar Airways features adjustable mood lighting on its planes. As we walked on board, the cabin crew set the lighting to rotate between the different hues.
Qsuite seats are arranged in a 1-2-1 layout, so that every seat has direct aisle access. The middle of the cabin is so spacious that you almost forget you're on an airplane.
The window seats are also roomy with plenty of storage spaces — including a coat hook. But the flight crew can also store your coat in a closet.
Every row in the middle of the plane alternates between seats being close together, or further apart. Seats like these, which are close together, can turn into a double bed when the partition is lowered. Here they are in private seat mode...
...And here's what they look like as double beds. The suite door is half-opened here, but can be pulled all the way closed. There's a ton of room for your legs and feet under the in-flight entertainment screens.
There's plenty of soft, plush bedding, including a luxurious blanket, pillows, and a mattress pad on top of the seat.
Each seat has a large in-flight entertainment screen, with tons of movies, shows, and more to choose from.
Of course, aside from the comfortable seating, catering and on-board service are a highlight of any trip in a business class cabin. Qatar showed off its typical dinner service, starting with this Arabic mezze...
...Followed by a choice of mushroom ravioli or chicken biryani...
...And finished with this chocolate cake with vanilla sauce and fig.
If you're sitting in the middle with travel companions, you can also enjoy a snack platter with things like mini tacos, sliders, and mini cheesecake.
You get a few other treats when you fly in Qsuites, including pajamas from The White Company and an amenity kit from Bric's, which is stocked with things like earplugs, a sleep mask and moisturizer.
While Qatar Airways' new QSuite business class might be one of the most comfortable ways to fly...
...Qatar Airways economy class is still a comfortable option, with seats offering 32 inches of pitch, a width slightly over 18 inches, and adjustable headrests.
