Since this is partially the LH thread, I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts? They'd be sincerely appreciated!
What are the departure/arrival/overall travel times? Does that make a difference?
Route--> Great Circle Mapper
So about 2 hrs more time in the air with QR

Qatar are in Oneworld alliance so a ff partner of AA, BA & others

But selecting a flight on only ff miles consideration is not the best IMHO
