Qatar Airways is offering a new 'unbundled' business class fare without lounge access or advance seat selection, but at a reduced price, as part of an overhaul to its fare structure.

Marketed as Business Class Lite, the fare sits below the Business Class Classic, Comfort and Elite categories.

Like any unbundled fare, it comes with several caveats for the unwary traveller. But if the price is appealing, and especially if your frequent flyer status already provides lounge access, Qatar's Business Class Lite is worth a closer look.
