That said, I was thrilled to figure out that you can use Avios and pay just 10% of the Avios for the infant ticket. So I got DOH-IAD for 70k per adult and 7k for the infant, total of about $300 in taxes. I had to book MLE-DOH separately but I just bought 3 coach seats for that (and QR allowed me to pick what look like PE seats on an ex-CX aircraft for free). But overall approximately the same net outlay with none of the hassle -- you can book QR w/ an infant easily on BA.com.
Thank you so much for the response. I was seeing on a reddit threat that someone was able to do it 3 months ago. Do you know if the regulations changed this year?
