I’m due to fly DXB-DOH-OSL today on QR1003 and QR175.

QR1003 is already showing as arriving in DOH at 0745, with my connection on QR175 due to depart at 0820x

I’m pretty sure that with the incoming QR1002 into DXB stacking due to the heavy storm ongoing in DXB will only make this worse.

I reached out to QR via the chat function online, only to be told they cannot proactively rebook at this stage as ‘the arrival time is uncertain’.

I’m due to head from OSL to LHR later tonight on a separate ticket, so if I miss the DOH-OSL sector I’m ok to just head on a DOH-LHR flight if they were to rebook me on such a sector.

What are the odds of QR agreeing to this? I’d be happy to sign any waivers necessary about getting to OSL on my own dime and not claiming for compensation under EC261..
