We also spent all our miles to get there in Q Suite which ended up just for nothing. Sad.
Just goes to show that it isn't worth planning trips based on equipment. My SIN-DOH flight falls on the one day that is being downgraded from A35K to A359 - but I still think QRs A359/787 and even the older 77W J class are some of the best so I'm not too bothered. Enjoy your trip as it's something that probably 95% of the population will never get to experience.
