Excusing the fact that BA WT+ is often = QR J in terms of pricing, the fact that for (say my oft flown routing) - LHR-BKK I can choose a 10:00, 15:00 and 20:30 departure from Heathrow to help me minimise my jetlag, but the MAN flights and possible soon to be added EDI-DOH will mean that the majority of those who fly UK-Asia on One World will be using 2 x flights anyway - surely less than 50% of UK-ASIA o/w pax are starting in LHR and finishing in BKK/SIN/HKG?

For those who havn't flown QR before, I do urge you to wait until the new airport is open if you have a tight connection or children

And also change your booking habits - QR have a CONSTANT stream of promotional fares - that last for 3 days only. However if you do miss one, another will be along shortly! Sign upto their newsletter if you need reminders.
