also, slight dilemma (and I know it's not strictly speaking TP related but you guys are "family" here and KARFA is very helpful too): BA F to SYD or QR J via DOH and HKG on way out (HKG SYD with CX which I found excellent in J earlier this year) and SIN DOH (thus new 350) on way back? I've read all the is QR J as good as BA F etc. for me, it feels like QR is more exciting and "fun" with 3 l/h's on a good mix of a/c etc though BA F will just earn more TPs (980 vs 840) and tons of Avios more (QR only earns 27k - BA probably 50k more). BA option would be £200 ish more than QR.
Thoughts? I know the answer is and should be BA F bit as said, QR feels more exciting?
I can't see the 350 being much different to the 787. That 787 product is very nice, but I don't consider it as good as BA F. I found the wine list, in particular, to be lacking on QR.
That being said, the price saving, plus the better split of flights might push me to QR on this one. Not because it's "better" in terms of product, but because I'd feel less like a zombie on arrival.
