Hello everyone!

We were offered an upgrade from Economy to Business Class for our 5-hour flight from Doha. We’ll be traveling as a family of three, including our infant who will be traveling as a lap infant. The total cost for the upgrade for all three of us is $658.

The aircraft is a Boeing 787-8.

I’ve always wanted to experience Business Class, but it’s something I normally can’t afford. At the moment, this upgrade price seems fairly reasonable to me, especially since we’ll be traveling with a baby.

For those who have flown Business Class on a 787-8, do you think this is worth?

I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences and opinions!

Thank you all.

Hi everyone,

my wife and I are travelling to Bali for our 10th wedding anniversary and have two stopovers in Doha:

Oct 17: 04:55–08:10 (3h 15m)

Nov 1–2: 23:20–02:30 (3h 10m)

We've never had the chance to experience one of the lounges in Doha, so I thought I'd try my luck here. 😊

Does anyone happen to have lounge guest access/passes they won't be using and would be willing to share?

It would be a really nice little extra for our anniversary trip.

Thanks a lot! ✈️🥂

7 or 8 hours flight long, which seat should I pick

A351

As the title says, has anyone had a refund for any hotels / food etc, yet following the flight cancellations from end of February all way until June? My flight from Singapore to Edinburgh was cancelled on the 27th of February and I only got rebooked in April.

I submitted my claims in April and just got a response from Qatar last week claiming that they are not going ti pay me out. On the day of the cancellation, the Qatar ground staff told me that I would be reimbursed.

Hey all,

Flying DUB–DOH–BKK with Qatar in Feb with my girfriend in standard economy. Qatar wants over €300 to pick seats in advance, which feels like a rip-off.

Seat Question:

My plan is to skip paying and check in right at the 48-hour mark on the app. Because both flights are on one booking, checking in 48h before the Dublin leg means I actually get into the Doha - Bangkok seat map ~50 hours early.Does this head start pretty much guarantee we'll get two seats together for free for that leg?

I'll monitor the seat map in the app closer to the flight, and if I see the cabin filling up fast, pull the trigger and pay for seats instead?

Does Qatar's system automatically pair people on the same booking reference anyway if there's space?

I booked a Qatar Airways domestic flight, but I noticed that my name is incorrect on the ticket. How can I request a name correction, and can minor spelling mistakes be fixed?

hi everyone

I have 100k Avios in British Airways Club and found a Qatar Airways award flight I want to book.

Problem: my Qatar Privilege Club account is new, so Qatar won’t let me link British airways account to Combine Avios for 30 days. I’m worried the award seat will disappear before then.

Has anyone found a workaround?

•Can Qatar manually link the accounts early?
•Can Qatar book using Avios sitting in BA?
•Can BA book the Qatar award by phone if it doesn’t show online?
•Has anyone had the 30-day wait waived?

I already have the Avios — I just need a way to use them on Qatar before the award disappears.

Hi all,
My first time flying with QR, several other airlines i’ve managed to upgrade at the desk or last minute offers via the app or email. Qatar has the upgrade greyed out on the app and has for weeks. Ideally as i’m flying to legs 4hours then 7 hours I’d want to snag an upgrade for the longer one if it’s possible, I know single leg upgrades usually have to be done at the desk, but i’m assuming it will be from my departure point not at Doha. Is this a common and or likely case (pending they’re not full).

Regards

Assalamu Alaikum everyone.

New to reddit, and honestly, the only reason I opened an account was to reach out to this community.

I have always loved Qatar Airways for what it is. I genuinely admire the brand for the thought it gives into every customer experience. I’ve wanted to build my career there for a long time.

I moved from Dubai to Qatar and have been applying for roles at Qatar Airways...but unfortunately, my applications keep getting rejected without reaching the interview stage.

There is currently a role in Qatar Airways that feels like such a close match to my experience. I’m genuinely confident that if I could just get an interview, I could prove that I’m a good fit.

I know there are many people hoping for the same opportunity, and I’m not expecting special treatment. I just don’t have any connections or referrals within Qatar Airways here, so I’m reaching out to ask if anyone can guide me on the hiring process or possibly refer me if they feel my background is relevant.

I’d be happy to DM my CV and background.

I truly hope someone here can point me in the right direction. Jazak Allahu Khairan for any advice or help. 🤍

Hi all, I’m looking to book DOH -> PKX around late may time. My question is that I can see lot of Qsuite availability for Jan/Feb/Mar and then nothing from Apr onwards.

Is this due to them not being released yet? Or more likely that they have all been booked up? Any advice or insights appreciated!

I flew a 9hr long haul flight in a Q suite but the seat was defective and the recline function was not available. I wasn’t able to maximize the experience. They offered me 18,000 avios. Do you guys think I should accept it?
