BUD-DXB in J under £800 return. QR.
BUD-DXB (slightly cheaper to SHJ) is coming in under £900 return for my dates in January. BUD-DOH is an A320 but it's not too bad for 5.5 hours on a day flight, and as DOH-DXB books into F, you'll get to experience the new Al Safwa lounge at DOH. You could probably drink the value of your fare back in Krug.
AY are also doing OSl-HEL-DXB for under £800, but I believe they use short haul aircraft on this route.

Prices aren't bad ex-MUC even for a single flyer (travelling on business so 241 is no good to me). Change from £1150 for MUC-DOH-DXB on the A350.

It's not just QR miles this is handy for. It's worth 400 BA tier points, for example.

Sort of. You get to use the F lounge (which in DOH is a bit special), and on board they serve F beverages (Krug champagne rather than Billecarte). The seats are recliners, granted, but it's certainly one of the better SH products. And you get F tier points and miles with Oneworld airlines (though at the SH rates, obviously - they tidied that anomaly up a few years ago).

Have you seen their intra-GCC F fares, though? Sometimes they're not far off the cost of these deep-discounted long haul J fares.
