I'm really looking forward to 8 hours in an incomplete lounge during Ramadan.
The airside transit hotel is scheduled to open on 30 June 2014 - is that not an option?

I'd be more concerned about having paid USD7k for a LHR-DOH-MNL J return ticket when, even today, QR is selling the same ticket on the same dates (maybe not the same times) for GBP2,060.

However I do agree - there is a world of difference between QR's in-flight service (^) and, old PT aside, their on-the-ground service ().
