Qatar Airways Fleet Airbus A350-1000 Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout
Qatar Airways operates this Airbus A350-1000 with their Qsuite product on a variety of long-haul destinations.
Qsuite offers ambient mood lighting, fully lie-flat beds and generous storage space, creating a new standard in comfort.
A unique feature of Qatar’s Qsuite is their first-ever cabin to offer aft and forward-facing seats, which creates a quad cabin.
Built into these seats are movable panels that allow passengers to transform the space into a social area, allowing you to work, dine or socialise at 40,000 feet.
When you are done socializing, you are able to put the panels back up and transform the quad space into your own private room.
The Q Suite setup is very different from normal business class cabins.
On the A350-900 there are 36 Q Suite seats, while on this A350-1000 there are 46.
The A350-1000 contains two business class cabins, a main cabin with nine rows at the side and ten rows in the middle, all in a 1-2-1 configuration making 38 seats and then a second, smaller cabin of just eight seats.
The seats are also forward- then backward-facing, like many train seats.
So the front row, row 1, has four backward-facing seats, and then row 2 has four forward-facing seats.
For the centre seats, that means they can make a four (the flight attendants call it a “quad”) if the central divider is dropped between the seats and then the fore and aft divider is operated.
The centre divider is operated by a catch by the passenger, but the fore and aft divider is operated by the flight attendants.
In addition, each seat has a sliding door that is locked open via a device similar to an Allen key for take-off and landing, and then is released for the rest of the flight.
With the door open, the facing seats allow you a good look at the person in front of you, but only at the start and end of the flight.
The seat has a type of shelf next to it that can be raised to become a large armrest, or lowered so it gives you more room around the shoulders.
The lid of this lifts up, and inside is storage space with a bottle of water and the noise-cancelling headphones.
At the seat is also the Brics amenity kit and a pillow with a message on it – The Sky is a Wonderful Place to be.
There is a large touchscreen IFE that is close enough to operate, and a further handset recessed into the side of the seat.
The seat reclines so that your feet meet the footrest beneath the IFE screen.
The seat also allows for you to rest your feet on the floor even when the seat is reclined, which adds to the different options.
There are numerous seat controls and pre-sets for controlling it.
A forward-facing window seat will suit individual travellers, but bear in mind that the overhead lockers are above you, so when someone opens them you have to be careful not to bang your head.
If you have a backward-facing window seat, then you are closer to the aisle because of the staggered nature of the seating – not a deal breaker, but less good.
Centre seats will also suit individual travellers, but make sure you have a forward-facing one such as D or G.
These share the disadvantage of being closer to the aisle, but they have the centre console between you and the person sitting in the other centre seat, which is preferable if you don’t know them.
If you are travelling with them, then perhaps go for the ones closer together (E and F for instance); and if you are partners, those are the ones you want since the backward-facing centre seats are the only ones that can be made into a double bed.

Business class may accommodate 46 passengers.
All passengers of business class will feel comfortable thanks to closed suites that have 180 degrees recline.
For passengers that are travelling with a companion (friend, family, colleague) are ideal for EF and DG seats.
The noise from lavatories and galley located in front may cause some disadvantage to passengers of the seats 1E and 1F as well as for passengers of the seats 9A, 9K and 10DG that are located in the end of the section.
Behind exit row 2 more rows of business class seats are located.
Location of the galley and lavatory area in front may cause discomfort to passengers of the seats of the 11th row.
281 seats of the economy class are located in two sections separated from each other with an exit row.
First section consists of 14 rows of seats.
13 rows have 3-3-3 configuration and the first row of the section has 2-3-2 configuration.
Passengers of the seats of the 16th row may take advantage of extra but at the same time stretch restrictive legroom because of the bulkhead located in front.
As the tray tables are built-in the armrests the width of this seats is reduced a little.
Also these seats have no floor storage during take-off and landing.
Due to lack of the seats in front passengers of the seats 17C and 17H will feel comfortable thanks to additional legroom.
However, these seats are often bumped by other passengers and crew members passing by.
Among other disadvantages: lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and slightly reduced seat width.
The only disadvantage of the seats of the 29th row is proximity of the lavatory and galley area.
Second section of economy class consists of 19 rows.
Thanks to the exit row located in front the seats of the 30th row offer additional legroom and personal space to passengers.
Tray tables and TV displays built-in the armrests make them immovable and reduce the width of these seats a little.
Also these seats have no floor storage during take-off and landing. Other passengers tend to congregate in the area of these seats causing discomfort to passengers.
The seats 31A and 31K are considered the best seats of economy class.
Passengers of these seats will take advantage of additional legroom because there are no seats in front.
At the same time the width of these seats is slightly reduced and there is no floor storage during take-off and landing.
Close location to the lavatories and galleys is the only disadvantage of the seats 31C and 31H.
Additional but stretch restrictive legroom will provide some comfort to passengers of the seats 32DEF.
However, a little reduced width and lack of floor storage during take-off and landing may be bothersome.
The main disadvantage of the seats 47D and 47F is location of the galleys and lavatories behind.
The seats 47ABC, 47HJK and 48DEF located in the last row of the airplane, location of the lavatories and galleys behind make these seats bad seats.
