Hi,

I booked ARN-DOH-DXB / DXB-DOH-ARN ages ago in a J sale.

The fare buckets used are ARN-DOH / DOH-ARN in Business(R), but the DOH-DXB / DXB-DOH is in First(A).

The short DXB/DOH sectors were originally proposed as being operated by A333 with the longhaul on 788.

Couple of questions:

1. Am I right to assume this was ticketed as First to ensure the lie flat beds in the older aircraft?
2. Will the First(A) booking class sectors on both outbound and inbound entitle me to use the First Class lounges facilities at DOH/DXB?
3. If the aircraft were changed to a three-class model, would we potentially get an F upgrade?

Thanks!
