Original premium fare deal was for QR J class travel, originating in Vietnam (SGN and HAN) to several destinations across the Americas, Europe, and Africa. Travel period 8/2017 - 3/2018 inclusive, RT fares in the USD 500 - 700 range (USD $0.05 base fare).

Reports have now been circulating that all held, non-purchased fares have been canceled by the airline. Some held and then purchased fares were also canceled, but several reports indicate at least some of those have been re-instated.

For more information on flying Qatar Airways, visit the FT forum: Qatar Airways | Privilege Club. This thread in that forum is especially useful: Qatar Airways Forum Dashboard.

This wikipost is intended to help us better understand if there are any trends (by route, travel date, and/or held/ticketed status) in these cancellations. In all entries, please include: outbound or inbound departure date, origin-destination, original ticket status (only *if* "Held" or "Ticketed after Hold"), and current ticket status only *if* your ticket was cancelled ("Cancelled" or "Cancelled & Reinstated").

what about this $825 no show???? How are they going to charge if I don't fly back???

I don't think it's an error. QR was hinting about it yesterday on twitter

Anyone needs miles ? FWIF ATL is 8h+ both ways which means a free hotel night on each stop.

The RDM for Explat on this fare is really excellent. For the SGN-DOH-DFW itinerary, it'd yield 51,000 RDM, which works out to 1.3 cpm.

Just fyi:

Note: Fares quoted when selecting Hold My Booking are only guaranteed for offline payment when purchased at a Qatar Airways office in the country of first departure and when paid in the currency quoted on the booking confirmation. Qatar Airways reserves the right to apply a surcharge or re-price the booking if payment is being made in any other country or another currency.

These are eligible for earning on AA, right? I know it's R class, but since the base fare is a nickel?? Also, are these eligible for overnight hotel in DOH?

For those who have booked, do you also see a net refund fee of $0? For me the flight is refundable....

I can position myself for DOH somewhat easily. I know I could skip the last leg (DOH - SGN), but I wonder if they'd notice if I skipped the first as well..
