Someone else said book First, then you'll get the A380.

I said that there were no First reward flights available.

Then someone else said they don't do reward flights in First on the DOH - LHR route.
QR have decided to keep several F routes blocked and just release seats rarely (or not at all like DOH-LHR).

If you really want to fly QR F then DOH-HKG/BKK are the easiest but you'll likely get a 777. A380 flights are rare, but possible - often with married segments. It's possible with a little bit of research (which no one will do for you). Budget for flexi prices.

I really love QR F on the A380 but totally get that some prefer the bling and wines of EK or refinement / polish of SQ. YMMV.
