Qatar Airways have announced that their business class experience, Qsuite, will launch on flights to and from Manchester in February.
Qsuite allows Qatar Airways passengers in adjoining seats to create their own private rooms for up to four people, as well as offering double beds, an industry first, to business class travellers. Adjustable panels and movable TV monitors on the centre four seats allow colleagues, friends or families travelling together to transform their space into a private suite, allowing them to work, dine and socialise together.
The announcement comes six months after Qatar Airways increased its frequency of services from Manchester Airport. By 1st March, two out of three of Qatar Airways’ daily services both to and from Manchester Airport will feature Qsuite seating.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said:
Since launching in 2017, Qsuite has received a host of accolades – most recently ‘World’s Best Business Class’ in the Skytrax World Airline Awards 2019 – and a hugely positive response from our customers.
“As such, we are delighted to introduce the product our Manchester route. With Qsuite, we have redefined business and luxury travel and we are thrilled to offer our loyal customers this unique product, which is unlike anything they would have experience before.”
Stephen Turner, Commercial Director at Manchester Airport, said:
It is fantastic to see this innovative and award-winning product become available to passengers travelling with Qatar Airways from Manchester. We are sure that it will prove immensely popular and will improve the experience for those travelling in Business Class.”
Qatar Airways’ Qsuite won “Best Business Class Seat” in the 2019 World Airline Awards, and alongside Manchester, the airline flies to more than 160 destinations worldwide from its hub, Hamad International Airport in Doha, Qatar.
