No QR availability DOH-KTM late March 2019
Hello all,
I'm looking at getting from DOH-KTM on QR Y or J in late March 2019. When I search avios prior to March 28 and after April 16, there is huge availability. When I search between these dates there is not one seat available in any class.
Do you think it's a glitch or is there some sort of huge demand present during this time period that I just don't know about?
Thanks in advance!

I'm doing KTM in November and QR had zero award availability as well. Ended up booking Etihad using AA miles.
It isn't a glitch. Simply QR don't release much space on this route for some reason. Could be tourism. Could be migrant workers.

Did you have to route through MCT to get to AUH?
Cheers.

Not going anywhere near Doha. Simply I was looking for Nepal to Europe. Without availability on KTM-DOH you can't book a KTM-DOH-Europe.

Fair point. Unfortunately ba.com isn't great with searching for connecting options on routes/airports not served by BA, but one gets lulled into assuming that they are searching properly.(with space being the problem) Qantas wouldn't help the OP though, who seems to want the single leg.
