    Grab a Vodafone #RED line and get some great freebies like free valet parking, airport lounge access around the world, and a personal concierge.

    Very close to the main Doha attraction area which is Souk Waqif. If you have a 'good' passport and more than 3 hours, it is good to go to souk waqif, have a coffee or sheesha and feel the Doha.

    Remember to activate Ooredoo Passport if you're traveling to a country that supports it. For just QR100, you get 1GB of roaming data and 100 roaming minutes for a week. Check at the Ooredoo/Qtel kiosk

    Now that you're in Qatar, you'll want to make sure you know what's happening, where to go, or join Qatar's friendliest community! So check out www.iloveqatar.net :)

    Be sure you have credit card or $35 USD for a 30 day tour visa for Westerners upon arrival there's an exchange pt for USD or AED to Qatari riyals BEFORE you go through passport control to your right.

    Lucky enough to be in 1st class? Check out the free bedrooms and (paid-for) in-house spa in the Premium terminal. It's nice enough to not mind that 6 hour layover.

    If you have the time, don't bother hanging around the airport and explore Quatar city. Recommended sightseeing: City centre architecture; Seaside promenade for sunset; Souq Waqif in the evening

    no internet when it's overcrowded, conditioners also overwork, bring some warm stuff with, if you transfer for more than 5 hours, you can use sleep seats in special area, which is pretty dirty, too.

    The city tour is lovely! If you have a long layover, get out of the airport, see Doha and maybe even shop a bit.

    In addition to free WiFi and food the Quiet Rooms is good if you need to rest. If you are traveling with children don't miss the Play area which is worth a visit!

    Present your boarding pass if you have a long layover, to the crew at the food court to get a voucher for a free meal! Must have your jacket during winter as it can get cold.

    If you fly Qatar Airways and have a long transfer, you can get a voucher for a free meal and the meal itself at a cafeteria near gate 7. Wifi is ok, the airport is great for people watching.

    Free WIFI + free lunch/dinner (flying with Qatar Airways), if you're staying longer than 5 hours. Ask at the information desk in front of gate 12 for the vouchers. Interesting people... ;)

    Oryx lounge is nicer than the silver fancy lounge. Oryx has showers, lounge chairs and computers. Silver is alright for short term but if more than 4 hrs, go Oryx

    If you have more than 5 hours to kill here, pop out to Doha. Visa for US citizens is 100 riyals($27). Plus cabs are reasonably priced. Try souk waqif for shopping.

    You need at least 2 buses to make it to your next plane. Oh, and you have to pass through security too!

    Horrendous wifi! But go to the far corner behind costa. A quiet lounge area with comfortable chairs. Nice for a lie down if you have a long transfer.

    Free wifi network, "DIA". Choppy & unreliable, frustrating even for light browsing, so forget about Skype calls etc. International power outlets at the cubicles with big E sign, next to gold lounge.

    Log on to 'WEB' for free wifi. The signal is strongest between Gate 10 and the Sterling Catering Services food court. Power sockets are available at the public phone booths too.

    The new Qatar Airways Gold Card lounge is really cool - go to the new area in the back - usually very quite!

    Do not expect aerobridges exist... All transfers done by buses and takes around 15-20 min to arrive at transfer point. Rumor said the new airport will open in june 2014.

    Free WiFi. No password or code required to connect. Charging terminals opposite Gate 11. Toilets next to the restaurant less crowded. Silent lounge for a nap at end of terminal near Gate 21.
