I did QR817 (1930 HKG departure) two weeks ago and QR816 (0825 DOH departure) this week. I'm glad I caught QR816 on the A350 for this June, took the cash upgrade

Slightly cheaper for Burgundy members
Around 25% off for Silver members
Free seat selection on Confort+ only applies to QRPC gold and platinum members, as well as all customers purchased Comfort fare ticket
I was eyeing the ex-CX Y+ seats, was about 1000HKD on classic/convenience (Burgundy) and free for Comfort fare which I ended up doing.

A7-BOD was in terrible shape. I'd even say the Y+ (2-4-2) seats looked worse than the Y (3-4-3) seats. I was in 34K. There was a strip loose on the floor where my feet rested, entertainment screen very unresponsive and also loose. I paid for the extra space and recline which I highly appreciate but even as a regular CX flyer I'm not use to CX planes looking like this!
