Now I received QRs answer:




This is really getting on my nerves. Does it mean that I have to be present at QRs check-in desk to show my card once again and go through the process as described by NetJets Germany? Would be very helpful being able to at least finalize the online check-in in advance. Any experiences here?
I get that fraud detection is a good thing, but the way Qatar handles it is quite ridiculous. As someone said earlier in this thread, Qatar is a fantastic onboard experience. Everything else about it is Third World.
