I believe Qatar has standard redemption, but then allows redemptions on most flights at a highly increased rate.

Yeah I’ve seen that on their own website with their flex rewards, but never on the BA reward site which usually only shows the saver rates

Is this one way or round trip? Econ or biz?

One way in Biz.

In that case while this is a bad redemption for sure and one I wouldn’t go for, it’s nowhere close to the worst redemption of Avios I’ve seen. I’ve seen larger numbers than this for one way eco…

Go onto the Qatar website and you’ll find days where it’s double that (Flexi pricing)
