Once again, thanks to all those who have contributed to this thread. ^
A quick phone call to QR in Doha confirmed seats 1E and 1F for the missus and I. New airport, new A380 - looking forward to it.
Something strange is going on with QR's A380 F seat reservations.
Having previously been unable to select F seats on-line (I still can't) I called QR two weeks ago to reserve seats 1E and 1F. These seats were confirmed, both on the e-ticket receipts (two different booking references) and the expertflyer seat map.
Out of idle curiousity I checked expertflyer this morning to see how many other F seats were taken for our flight. To my surprise, and dismay, our own seat reservations had been deleted (confirmed by re-checking our e-tickets on-line). Happily, another call just now to QR in Doha has re-instated our seat reservations.
However - for the 14 DOH-LHR A380 flights next month - for the 112 (14 x 8) F seats available (17-30 June 2014 inclusive) only 3 (including the 2 for my wife and I) show on expertflyer as having been reserved. While our flight currently shows F6 P0 A0, a further 8 flights currently show F8 P0 A0, 4 flights show F7 P0 A0, and the other one shows F6, P0, A0. Has QR really only currently got a grand total of 8 F passengers for its 14 A380 DOH-LHR flights in June (i.e. currently 104 empty F seats) - or am I mis-reading the situation?
