I was sent a QR email today which included a 'special fare' link (ARN to Phuket) from SEK17,849. Although that was not of interest, clicking the link showed there were more destinations available including HKG, SIN (and others) at about the same price point SEK16,000, £1300 $1700 Here is the link , which you will see doesn't even show HKT so QR are really trying hard with their marketing.

I looked at HKG and found it wide open for 5-12 night stays (midweek flights only) in July and August. Note that I couldn't find these fare on Google flights.


A little care is needed in day/flight selection to avoid stupid layovers but there seems to be reasonable choice if you can be flexible. Note that according to various blogs, ARN-DOH is NOT Q Suites (except one flight from November onwards) but DOH HKG is indeed Q suites (on the 777).



Fare rules show book by July 31. RJSEP1ZX Change fees are $400+.

I did a dummy booking on Qatar direct and got these prices (allowing for currency differences).
