How do QR and WY (Oman Air) compare?

[stu961]

In dozens of flights in Q Suites, always on rear facing seats, I have never, ever, been affected by this (never even occurred to me) and I mostly take day flights. I honestly wonder what went on with your QR flight; I don't recognise the issues you've mentioned here are in other threads much at all. I have had a couple of 'bad' FAs, but that is bad compared to their usual; on a bad day they are better than, for example, QF.

Going back to QR v WY (done both recently)

@Melburnian1 - don’t worry about the rear facing QSuite seats. Any time you’ll notice it is on take off and landing, and yes, the first time it’s a bit odd, but it’s not uncomfortable. Actually, when you’re lying down, you have a natural couple of degrees favourable head up tilt.

QR FAs are more polished and understand the food and especially the wine much better. Check out a recent menu and the fantastic wine list here. More chatty - they are more used to Australian passengers, as they service this county directly.

2-2-2 layout - that's ancient, but I have flown, years ago. Check the seat map with a dummy booking. I'd be really surprised if it still came up, but if it does, look at the price and what its up against. Choose the one you like better.



Yes. I looked at booking Studio but soi glad I didn't. I looked at it closely on board, incl menus etc; except for the seat all 'Business' and def not worth the price uplift.

Same ... never have noticed I'm in a rear facing seat and usually choose as further away from isle... another big + for me with QR is the "dine at any time" especially on the evening flight out of Sydney... go straight to sleep and have my dinner a couple hours out of Doha
