Looks like a A320 to Doha but A350-1000 to and from SIN so Q suites for the long legs!
Interesting that you managed to get this fare to work, in the past week I had seen it coming up as £1365 in August but when going through to the QR website, it was repricing to £1650 wish. Now for the dates I want in August, GF is giving me £1298 and then the QR website reprices to approx £1450.

Just checked, if you do SOF-DOH-SIN-DOH-ARN you can even get it for £1196 according to GF.

Used BA Avios and one of my 241 amex vouchers. Bit of a burn of Avios as we are flying J from LHR to SOF for four in peak time but I was struggling to get anywhere near enough Avios for LHR-SIN return so I'm happy to us them for this and get to fly the Qsuite. Ive booked seats in a quad for the 4 of us and I cant wait!
If you book through one of the travel sites you can actually get even lower.
Just my luck Qatar will have a daft £900 special starting tomorrow now..

That is a good spot and I didn't think of searching that, it does indeed bring the cost down a few hundred but bit late now

I am based in London, and if I were to book SOF-DOH-SIN-DOH-ARN as I mentioned in the thread above, for my dates GF prices up a BA ticket LON-SOF & ARN-LON for under £100 and as it is a multi city ticket, it has baggage allowance (necessary for me as it will be a long trip) so no need to worry about paying the extra (although only a bit) for the plus fare. Note that GF prices EDI-LHR-SOF & ARN-LHR-EDI for not much more than £170 on my (peak) dates in August. And this could be brought down further using Part Pay With Avios if necessary.

QR sale fares seem to be active. I've been looking for Australia, best I could find was HEL-MEL 2300EUR

INV to West Coast £1k

There appear to be some very good fares out of INV to West Coast showing bookable on AA, slightly more on BA.

Seems to include SFO, LAX, LAS starting around £1,039 and appears to allow more complex TP focused itineraries e.g. INV-LHR-JFK-LAX-SFO return.

Also some other bits of the fare rules which may help anyone looking:

OUTBOUND - PERMITTED MON/TUE/WED ON EACH TRANSATLANTIC SECTOR.
INBOUND - PERMITTED TUE/WED/THU/FRI ON EACH TRANSATLANTIC SECTOR.
Open for all dates, no restrictions on travel periods.

RESERVATIONS FOR ALL SECTORS ARE REQUIRED AT LEAST 50 DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE.
TRAVEL FROM INBOUND TRANSATLANTIC SECTOR MUST COMMENCE NO EARLIER THAN THE FIRST SUN AFTER ARRIVAL AT TURNAROUND.
STOPOVERS NOT PERMITTED ON THE FARE COMPONENT.
It seems the usual 2 connections are permitted free so something like INV-LHR-JFK-PHX-LAS should be fine.

Thanks KARFA, the rules explain why my dates aren’t available

Arn-doh-sin-doh-arn is looking cheap again.

Was searching 10 minutes ago getting the prices, but now they seem to have risen considerably.

Edit: seems September gives high prices, if I push back to October they drop again. Odd!
