It took me 12 hours to fly from New York City to Doha.
It was worth it for the top-notch service, comfortable seats, and other perks.
I've never had a better business class experience.
One of the best business classes in the world is known as the Qsuites.
In June of last year, Qsuites was introduced into the airline's fleet.

The airline has included the model on many of its long-haul routes.

The Qsuites model can be found on all of the different aircraft types.

Each Qsuites equipped aircraft has between 36 and 46 suites in a 1-2-1 configuration with ample space, full privacy, and a seat that turns into a lie-flat bed.
The points have been upgraded.
Although it's not a route I'll typically take, it was the best business class I've ever had the pleasure of flying in.
I waited in the American Airlines lounge at John F. Kennedy International Airport for my flight.
Each seat in the business class cabin was decorated with two pillows, a Diptyque kit, noise-canceling headphones, and a plush blanket.
We were given a drink of our choice and a warm towelette to take with us to the airport.
I received a set of pajamas from The White Company that were very comfortable.
The cabin had top-of-the-line technology like a panel to control the seats with a "do not disturb" button.
The TV screen is 22 inches.
There is a universal TVremote.
I had the option to close the door completely on the Qsuite seat, which made it feel like a personalized room.
The seats were comfortable. I was able to move around the cabin to the bathroom without disturbing other people.
A water bottle and noise-canceling headphones were hidden under the second cushion.
I had a snack before I went to bed and only had an entree.
There was plenty of room to eat and drink under the TV.
There were many options on the dinner and breakfast menu, including Asian-style sea bass, greek yogurt with berries, and more.
The drink menu featured vintage champagnes and spirits, as well as beers, and cocktails.
I went to the bathroom to change into my sleepwear. Larger lavatories can be found in the business class cabin.
There are Diptyque soaps and lotion in every bathroom.
Basic things like toothbrush sets are also included.
The flight attendant told me that my seat would be turned into a bed.
The seat's ability to lie all the way flat gave me peace of mind during the flight. I woke up around an hour and a half ago.
When I woke up, I took into account the windows in my Qsuite. Since we took off at night, I didn't really notice them.
I turned it down because of my upset stomach. The flight map was so detailed that I decided to look at it.
We were given chocolates before we got to the airport.
I was able to stretch out while we were in the Middle East.
On the way back to New York, my flying experience was the same.
The experience at the airport in New York was very similar to that in the Middle East. I was greeted by people who took my bags on a bellhop and then brought me to a private check-in which had its own security checkpoint.
There was a lounge in the airport that took up two floors.
The business class of the airline was the best I have ever flown.
I arrived at John F. Kennedy airport after the flight went by quickly. I was impressed with the design, space, and service on the Qsuites model and I would fly it again for long-haul flights.
