EY, EK and QR all have decent priced business class rates at present: EY at about £1,510, EK at about £1,700 and QR at about £1,550.

I've been with both EK and QR in the past in Econ and in general have been happy with their services. Got the pleasure of getting ICE DXB-LGW leg in May, which was great (all other sectors didn't have it though). Also DXB is actually not that bad an airport.

Now which one should I go for? Heard that EY have really improved with their new 777's, but will I get that plane?

I hear DOH is a bit of a nightmare airport. However I will have lounge access (both to QR and BA as I'll be BA gold by the time I travel). However I think I can put QR miles onto my BA card.

Any other factors to consider? Which one to go for?

Thanks
