Upon pressing, they explained that "we havedoubled back to take another look, and as Qatar is not a joint business partner, using this airline for rebooking to an alternate airport won't be possible. It will need to be an American Airlines code share with a join business partner."
Yeah it's the doubling up of policies that's causing the issue.
Does a DOH-LHR (BA), LHR-IAD (BA/AA) work any better on times for you?
