The route was to be expected. But I somehow can't envisage too many award tickets being available on 787 operated services for the first few monthts, at least until the novelty has worn off.

Interesting comment from Mr. Al Baker regarding QR never offering a premium economy class service. That was emphasied by the recent decision to reconfigure some 777's, rather than declassify business class rows 5-7 and offer them as a premium economy product, something that other airlines with surplus capacity up front would have seriously considered.
