This leaves no margin for delays and even if we arrive on time I am not confident that we (or our bags) will make it to the connecting flight via security in 45 minutes (even if we do I suspect the gate will be closed). Should the flight options have been offered to me by BA? I have just contacted BA to flag this but suspect they may just say you booked this option.
QR have around seven flights a day from DOH to BKK ... so probably worth find out when the next BKK flight after the one you're booked on is on your day of travel
