You mean transit in DOH or KUL? Hmm...if I miss the flight, is it my fault or QR sould arrange next flight (8pm) to me?

I can select the seats on the A320 but on the 777 it won't let me select the seats . I read about this a few pages back did anyone find a way to fix it.

CRAZY !!

Just booked

HAN-DOH MAR 11
DOH-BKK MAR 12

DOH-HAN MAR 15

Real night in a real bed with real food in HAN then again

HAN-DOH MAR 16

QR: PNH-DOH-SGN 195$++ Business (in Z w/o MPM)

In DOH they will pick business class up separately and take to transit and arrival terminals. It is 10min or so ride. But once in the terminal you go right to the gate. They are good at handling tight connections. I have always found it more of a challenge in KUL. I misread the rules and missed that return had to start 3 days after leaving which eliminates connection issues in KUL. I am spending 2 nights there.

I'm going to be really sick of DOH airport after all these trips. If they work.
I am on the same exact flights! On 1st March though I leave BKK at 01:40am, to DOH and then back home to KWI for a few things. Should be back in DOH in time to connect DOH-HAN at 01:25am on 2nd March

My friend who didn't put any FF number didn't get seat assignments.
We are on the exactly same flights.
I put my BAEC in and got to select seats. Not a gold though.

Given the relatively tough law in Qatar, I wouldn't be surprised if some of you were to spend their stopover night in DOH in jail

They do have tough laws. For drug smugglers, terrorists etc.

AFAIK being an airline customer is not yet a criminal offence, even in Qatar.

They do apply heinous jail sentences for being Luxembourgan in a Built-Up Area. I know Amnesty have campaigned for years against it.

We're just transiting through DOH anyway. We don't actually have to leave the airport. I've set up a run where you leave one country, never enter another and return to the starting country 11 days later (if my calculations are correct)... I wonder if that will cause any issues... lol.
(That run does allow entry into DOH as there's a layover of over 8 hours twice)

And I promise... I won't sue you if QR put me in jail during one of my transits in DOH
