A small glitch, as shown by the image in shorthauldad's post: ba.com is displaying the RJ logo against the QR flights.

So what's the point of being able to search for flights online if the search doesn't recognize all airports that QR flies to (e.g. ISB)?
I'm guessing it's still a work in progress. Hopefully this gets straightened out soon.

Some airports served by LAN haven't been recognised for years and some airports in Japan have even disappeared from BA's booking engine recently, so don't hold your breath for ISB.

(Replacing PER-HKG-LHR with PER-DOH-LHR, will have to find another time to try the A380...)

Qatar has now changed its booking classes, as summarised here, including changing Z to I. The BA.com page for earning on non-OneWorld parner airlines remains unchanged, with Z earning but I not.
Let's home that changes pretty quickly (nudge nudge), as it will affect travellers both before and after the OW integration.

Yes it's quite surprising what Qatar owns now. Harrods, Aspreys.... and huge slices of equity in a number of major British companies. QR's evolution is worth keeping an eye on. They're not going away anytime soon.

Unfortunately, BA does not allow Australian-based flyers (among a few others) to register for their Executive Club and Avios.
I'd be grateful if somebody with access could do a quick search for award availability DOH-DAR in Economy and Business in either of their two daily flights on 8 and 9 July 2014.
