QATAR Airways (QA) has won a Crystal Cabin Award for 'Best Cabin Concept' in recognition of its innovative new Business Class seat Qsuite.
The award, announced at the Aircraft Interiors Exposition taking place in Hamburg, Germany this week, was decided by a jury of 28 international experts from a shortlist of 91 submissions and 24 finalists, to distinguish pioneering on-board innovation by airlines.
Hamad International Airport (HIA) Chief Operating Officer Eng Badr al Meer received the award on behalf of QA at the prestigious ceremony held at the Hotel Atlantic Kempinski in Hamburg.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Akbar al Baker said:"We are delighted to have Qsuite recognised at the Crystal Cabin Awards. As an airline, one of our top priorities is to continuously strive to create a second-to-none in-flight experience for our passengers. We are very proud that Qsuite has been a game-changer within the industry, bringing a First Class experience to the Business Class cabin. This award proves that our extensive investment in innovative design concepts and cabin comfort has truly paid off."
QA, known for its industry firsts, continues to exceed expectations with its innovative product development most notably with the recent launch of its revolutionary Business Class seat Qsuite. Qsuite takes cabin innovation and personalisation to an entirely new level, thanks to its patented quad seating configuration that features the industry's first-ever double bed in Business Class, as well as customisable private cabins for up to four people. Qsuite has set a new standard in luxury travel, and is already fast collecting awards since its launch at ITB Berlin last year.
Celebrating its 12th year, the Crystal Cabin Awards is a benchmark for innovation and creativity within the aviation industry.
