Sort of. You get to use the F lounge (which in DOH is a bit special), and on board they serve F beverages (Krug champagne rather than Billecarte). The seats are recliners, granted, but it's certainly one of the better SH products. And you get F tier points and miles with Oneworld airlines (though at the SH rates, obviously - they tidied that anomaly up a few years ago).
