Day 1 -- San Francisco, USA

 5/30/2025 Friday

Itinerary:

• SFO Lark Creek Grill
• SFO Golden Gate Lounge
• Qatar Airline

We took an Uber to the airport and checked in to Qatar Airline for our flight to Athens with a 8 hour layover in Doha, Qatar. After getting our boarding passes, we went through security check and went to buy some chicken wings at Lark Creek Grill before heading to the Golden Gate Lounge.

We ate some light snacks and drinks at the lounge before heading to the gate for our flight in Qatar Qsuites to Doha. As usual, we had a great flight and service for the 13 hours+.

Day 2 — Doha, Qatar

6/10/2023 Saturday

Itinerary:

• Doha Airport (DOH)
• Al Mourjan Business Lounge - The Garden
• Qatar Airways Airbus A350-1000 Qsuites

After getting off the plane at Doha, we went through the transfer security and was at the new part of the airport where the Garden was. At first glance, it looks like a mini version of Singapore Changi Airport Jewel.

We went to the Al Mourjan Business Lounge - The Garden since we had already been to the old lounge to rest for our layover. It was a beautiful area with different amenities. We first stopped by the counter of the quiet area to book a room for 6 hours so that we can rest up.

After resting for a while, we went to get some food and also walk around the lounge. It was very spacious and not crowded at all. 

After eating some food, we went to take a shower so that we feel refreshed after a long flight. Right after the shower, we went back to our quiet room to rest for a couple of hours before it was time to head to the gate for our flight to Bali. On the way there, we could have taken the skytrain since it was at the other end of the airport but decided to walk there so that we can enjoy the airport.

After a good 15 minutes walk, we are finally at the gate for boarding and it was time to take our red-eye flight to Bali for about 9 plus hours. It was another Qsuite flight which I am so glad because sometimes, they do fly non-Qsuites on this route. They served us some food right after we boarded so that we can get to sleep shortly after that. But since we already had a full dinner at the lounge, so I only ate some croissant.

Day 1 — San Francisco

6/9/2023 Friday

Itinerary:

• San Francisco Airport (SFO)
• Qatar Airways Airbus A350-1000 Qsuites

We left for the airport around noon as we had to take a 4:15pm flight to Bali, Indonesia with a 8 hour layover in Doha, Qatar. We took the Airbus A350-1000 Qsuites which was had took the last time we went to Maldives. I love the Qsuites as it was a door that we can close to have some privacy while we sleep.

We stayed at the lounge till it was time to board our plane.  It was a little over 15 hours of flying before we landed at Doha.

The service on the plane was good as usual and so was the seat but the food wasn't as good as I remembered the last time we took Qatar Airways. But overall, we had a good flight.
