That works....... You can also use QR DOH to LHR. Might be a little cheaper, maybe not....

It goes on the the higher fare which is $3K oneway.

Look the rules have been set. No sense keep suggesting what about this and that. Figure it out when you try to do the booking. There aren't many carriers and combos you can take on the lower fare anymore. If you want to combine with various fares, then you gotta go up the fare ladder.

Agreed. The fare rules are publicly available. Read them.

You got that with the old fare? Looks way more than it should have been.

I'm betting it's the combination of QF YQ for the two EK legs and BA YQ into LHR. Just a guess of course. I have almost the same routing in reverse of that still booked and it looks about right.

I did EK F, QF F, BA F, AA F for $2,481. All for naught now though.

When flying with QR or TK on an RT ticket: does the fare allow a free stopover in DOH or IST on the way going or coming back?

You can look them up on ITA Matrix or on ExpertFlyer or with some OTAs. Give it a shot.

It was pulled and replaced with an alternative fare a month or so ago.

It came on a Blog. That's like death row for good value fares.
