Good to know, thanks.

Accidentally typed QF (Qantas) instead of QR (Qatar). How does Australia–Europe work with QR, and what can you do while still only paying 80,000 miles (e.g. SYD–AUH on EY then AUH–DOH–LHR on QR, SYD–BKK–DOH–LHR, SYD–NRT–BKK–DOH–LHR)? Has anyone successfully booked such an itinerary as one 80,000-mile award (or know someone who has)?
