Looks like I can get 2 badges after this trip, so I registered for Globetrotter, but I did not get any email confirmation that I have been registered. Is it normal?

Have a good day!
I would double check whether you get a badge for CPH if you're traveling to SVG on the same ticket..

I'm from Manila and I'm planning to complete 4 badges:

CRK - DOH - VIE then VIE - DOH - HKT (then take a separate budget airline back to Manila) in Y (class N) this June. This will give me:
- 5000 bonus miles for Vienna
- 5000 bonus miles for Phuket
- Cultural Exploration badge
- Adventurous Getaway badge
- 25000 bonus miles for 2 badges
- 15886 Qmiles (Gold tier)

CRK - DOH - BCN then BCN - DOH - HKG (then take a separate budget airline back to Manila) in Y (class N) this October. This will give me:
- 5000 bonus miles for Barcelona
- 7500 bonus miles for Hong Kong
- Culinary Journeys badge
- Metropolitan Excursion badge
- 75000 bonus miles for the other 2 badges
- 18043 Qmiles (Gold tier)

All-in-all:
- 156429 Miles
- upgrade to Privilege Club Platinum
- total cost including 2 budget airline flights: USD 1650
- cost per mile: 0.0105

Is this acceptable? :/

Are those 4 separate bookings? If so, I can't see why it should be a problem.
If they are 2 bookings, not sure how QR will handle it.

Two (open jaw/multi-city) bookings.

I am planning something similar myself and am assuming it will be OK based on the FAQs:

Can I combine multiple theme destinations in a multi-city itinerary?

Travel to theme destinations can be covered in a multi-city itinerary provided travel to each theme destination is transiting via or originating from Doha and falls within the theme’s offer period.

Is it possible to do one ticket with two open jaws and be eligible for bonus Qmiles/travel badges?

An open jaw ticket is eligible for bonus Qmiles and special travel badge(s) provided travel to theme destination is transiting via or originating from Doha, falls within the theme’s offer period and theme destination is not a part of member’s country of residence.

DOH - BKK - HKT is still bookable online but the last segment is operated by Bangkok Airways (codeshare with QR though). Will I earn an Adventurous badge since the final destination is Phuket?

Why you not book DOH-HKT? There are direct flights to Phuket. This will give you one badge.

I don't think you'll get BKK or HKT as you live in Thailand

If you had paid half as much attention to the wording of my original post as you did in rushing to try and trip me up, the above would not have been necessary.

I had thoroughly studied the T&C's of the campaign. Although I no longer have a copy of my original post, it contained a sentenced that read 'However, both the itinerary and I fully comply with the T&C's of the campaign.'

I rest my case.

I live in Manila.

@Crisu69 - just a wishful thinking to experience the A380 DOH-BKK flight. :-)
