  • Jakarta - Kuala Lumpur (1) very simple

    Qatar Airways
    Flight no. : QR0621
    Date : 05 August 2004
    Aircraft type : A300-600R
    Capacity : (Business : 1, (Economy : 232)
    STD : 2225
    STA : 0125*
    ETD : 2240
    ETA : 0130*
    Number of crews on board : (Pilot : 2), (Cabin Attendant : not sure)
    Gate : D3
    Duration : 2 hours
    Announcement : English & Arabic

    My father booked the ticket from his preffered travel agent in a city called Bogor (about 1 1/2 hours from 'Jakarta Pusat'). My father wanted to go to the airport at 1930 but i didn't want it because all the airline offices in the airport will be closed by 8pm. So we went to the airport at 1730, a taxi (Blue Bird) came to fetched us at at around 1725.

    We arrived at the airport about 30 minutes later. Gosh, the airport was full with passengers. As the check-in counters for Qatar Airways haven't opened yet, so we decided to have some McDonalds first. There are 2 McDonalds restaurant in the Terminal 2, one in the downstairs & another one in the upstairs. Both of them were full with hungers. About 10 minutes later, we got a table for ourselves (shared it with an Indonesian guy). We bought some fried chickens & 3 packets of rice. We threw away the rice because it was too sticky & smelly, as for the fried chicken, it was very delicious. After that, i went to the airline offices myself to collect all the winter timetables. I got Emirates, Qatar Airways, Cathay Pacific Airways, Garuda Indonesia, Singapore Airlines & Malaysia Airlines' timetables.

    At about 2015, the Qatar Airways check-in counters were opened. For security reason, only passengers with tickets are allowed to go into the check-in hall. After that we got our boarding passes & we went directly to the immigrasen counter. $hit, the man asked for USD50 from my father, well, my father only gave him USD10 .

    Boarding commenced about 20 minutes before departure. The cabin crews didn't greet us, they just asked for our boarding passes with their scary faces . Nothing special on this flight, 2 choices of meals were offered on this short flight. Some documentary were shown on the main screen but i didn't watch it as the IFE on my seat is broken.

    Hmm, i've nothing to say for the moment except that this flight was TERRIBLE. Qatar Airways claims that their seat pitch in Y on this A300-600R is 32" but i can tell you that they are cheating, the seat pitch is only 29", same as Air Asia's.

    Shame on you Qatar Airways.

    By the way, the meal i got was similiar to this one :


    We arrived in KLIA at 1.30 in the morning. That's all for this Qatar flight.

        You could take Malaysia Airlines to KLIA

        How come the airport close early than 12am?

        The food arent nice than other airlines.

        You right! The legroom was awful since I been on KA from HKG-HKT in July 2002 the legroom was 27" because my leg too tight to the other seat.

          MH & GA are too expensive. No EK flight on Thursday to KUL & Sunday back to CGK. As for Merpati & Lion, i'm still very young .

          How come the airport close early than 12am?
          Which airport ????

          The Indian food was quite nice even though my father don't like it.

          Hmm ?? Dragonair ? I was on Qatar Airways, not Dragonair .

              Jakarta
              Hmm, i'm not sure if Jakarta is a 24 hours airport but there is no midnight flight in CGK now (correct me if i'm wrong). Well, it's not unusual for an airport to close before 12am, LHR, NRT & many domestic airports in Malaysia/Indoesia close before between 9pm/11pm/12am - early in the morning.

                          Come on. Read it again, i said that i went to the airport at 1730, arrived there at about 1800. My father actually wanted to go to the airport at 1930, but i didn't want it because all the airlines' offices will be closed the time i arrive at the airport (2000).

                          So, when did i say that i went to the airport late at night ????
