JFK-SIN for two adults and two children is pricing out at $6,488 in total. That's $1,622 per person. The best fares seem to be Mon-Weds and I was looking at June and November. No VISA code used.

Yeah, that's just what I saw. It's kind of weird, if you try and do that on the Qatar website directly, matching dates etc. you get on GF, it comes out at a higher price. If you start with google flights and proceed to the Qatar site from there (i.e. at the lower price) it works out. At least that's how it worked for me.

Booked CPH > CPT > ARN for two in October, R class, around GBP 1,230 pp, 640 BA TPs. Not sensational, but tempting enough for me.

I think the difference between google flights and QR website is that GF doesn't use married segments logic for connections exceeding a certain amount of hours. QR website however uses married segment logic for all connections less than 24 hours no matter how you piece it.

If you click on GF and then onto QR website, it'll show the price per GF but it'll re-price at the end in my experience. An easy way to show the price you see on GF is to break up the segments by making layovers in DOH >24 hours.

I am seeing a very low CAI-BUE on both google flights and matrix (1400€) range but cannot replicate on QR website
Any way I could circumvent that?

trying this for ex-CAI and cant figure out a way to book this at GF's cheaper price. every other OTA including QR website is coming up at a higher price. plus the price on GF dropped a couple bucks since last night. can anyone help me figure this out? thanks in advance

I'm getting the VISA discount to work on searches where it didn't seem to be before now.

Have just booked OSL-DOH-AKL-DOH-ARN, thanks for the tip.

Priced up at 14,909 NOK which is Ł1434 at today's exchange rate. Not quite such a great deal as that ZRH-DOH-ADL fare last year, but about as good as I think I'll get.

Flying out 3/4 and back 24/4 in case anybody wants to say hi.

Cheers, Rich

I saw this, what a great deal...though a very long transit from LAX versus going via SFO/NRT

Anyone have any luck getting the fares to appear on QR.com ex-KUL? The website advertises lots of J fares ex-KUL (BOS, JFK, LHR, CDG) but none show up when trying a dummy booking.

If anyone has time to kill and doesn't mind a looooott of time in the sky, I've found a great route for racking up miles


CMB - CAI in J/F for approx USD 560 (with visa deal)
CAI - JNB in J/F for approx USD 815 (with visa deal)

Throw in the 5X miles and I'm (gold tier) earning 192,000 miles and 196 Qpoints - that's enough for a return business ticket Sydney to LHR, or two economy, for ~$1375.
