QR doesn't have a lot of F service and nothing to the US. Had an interesting conversation with one of QR senior cabin crew about why no A380 to JFK. No idea how true this is but she told me the reason no JFK is that QR's current A380s are not ADA-compliant. Supposedly they have more A380s on order and those will be ADA-compliant. Sure sounded like a good story after 3 or 4 drinks at the bar.

Agree. But we're ranking airlines based on what they provide on their own, not what you can add on at an extra cost.
