WTH with Qatar Y meals and service?
Qatar has one of the best J products in the world but WTH with economy?
Recently flew DOH-DPS / KUL-DOH in Y and not happy.
Comparing to Emirates, there is just no competition in Y. Emirates has much better food, FAs, more entertainment options and a bit more comfortable seat.

- Small meal portions, no cheese/appetizer/or proper veg salad, everybody is probably tired of quinoa salad that has been on the menu for a while.
- No coffee on both flights. On DOH-DPS they ran out of coffee and FA was too lazy to refill. On KUL-DOH there were no hot beverages at all during both meals due to seatbelt sign (but not much real turbulence).
- FA not friendly, communication limited to short replies Yes, No to any requests (usually No).

Agree that QR's Y meals are quite sparse in comparison to other airlines. Your point on EK is also right, QR is superior in J and EK is far superior in Y.
Let's not forget those dreadful "sandwiches" they frequently serve as the second meal.
