Hi Folks

I need to fly from MAN to MEL in November in Business. I want to use OW. Options seem to be:

1) Qatar
Pros: very good schedule and price. Cons: MAN-DOH not guaranteed flat bed

2) Cathay
Pros: good seats all the way, schedule OK. More expensive than Qatar

3) Quantas
Pros: good seats and schedule, but some legs operated by Emirates, so no TP or Avios

Have I got the basic elements of the choice right?

Cheers
Jono
