So, I went out to Qatar's web site, and also searched a few threads in the FT Qatar forum, looking for flight requirements for qualification but found no references. So my question, which hopefully you may know the answer, is "Does QRPC require QR flights for annual qualification, and if so how many?".
Thanks - Bob
Yeah it's 4 flights
OR 20% of your QPoints have to be earned on QR flights. I think most people would get 4 flights first, but in theory you could do something like LAX-DOH-AKL or SYD and that would easily exceed the 20% threshold since that's 186 / 176 QPoints (Assuming D Class) and the 20% threshold for Platinum would be 120. If you're doing the 4 segments, they can also be marketed flights, doesn't have to be QR metal.
