BA LHR-Doha Route Cancelled for 2 weeks in December
It seems that BA's seasonal cancellation of the LHR-Doha route has just kicked in. I just received confirmation that my return flight has been cancelled, meaning I will have to slum it in QR First instead. I might just about cope 
LHR-DOH seems to be cancelled from 11-24 Dec inclusive (return flights are the following day). Restarting the route on Christmas Day seems an odd decision, although I guess they might be doing a rolling cancellation and just haven't updated timetables yet.

Enjoy QR First - I got put in it when BA cancelled my Singapore flight. Was good - enhanced by the fact it was just me and my partner (Bathroom each, Crew member each). Nothing mind blowing at all though.
Cabin Crew may escort you up to the bar and allow you to drink from the F menu (Krug) which gets you a few looks from the J passengers.

Wondering (before I speak to BA) whether anyone has any views / share any experience regarding whether they may consider switching us to QR metal from LHR for the same day, so we can catch our onward flights from DOH? Not sure I've come across 4 x reward seat availability on QR J, before.....

normally the policy for F rewards is that you get rebooked in to QR J - there should be some refund as well. it is possible you may get lucky if calling youfirst.

LGW-DOH on Dec 27th was also cancelled today. QR flight cancelled, looks like it was replaced with BA but was rebooked onto QR with a huge connection. Very strange hopefully moving to LHR
