Try Wideroe

You can't exactly force it to book Q, but if you open a live chat with a rep before booking, they'll walk you through and they can manually upsell to Q before ticketing.
Thanks for the tip on Wideroe!

I just gave it a try, and the live chat rep said to make a remark in a special comment box. Unfortunately even on the lower booking class of K, the price quoted was way higher than what Egyptair quoted.

Thanks a lot though!
