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.

No joking , we all know by heart that this is an error fare and QR won't honor it. In fact I call them for other booking but also had a small chitchat about this morning error fare. If QR is not honoring the tix, it is not because of my call but all the blogger around the world, onemile, secretfly and many many other blogs that spread this.
Yes it is coincident with golden tix promo. But how the hell they promo on all routing and almost everyday. Yes they are going to put 0 fare on SOME route on SOME date but screw up a lil.... is that I heard from QR office near me

There have been many Qatar error fares that have been honored.
But at least we know one reason if this one happens not to be: because of people like you.

Have these fares been pulled now ?
I am in Thailand with 2 others around these dates and could move my return flight and nest one of these to Europe in the middle - but I suspect I'm way too late to the party.
Ignored when I first saw as thought it was only to North & South America. What a jackass.

saw someone posted a screenshot of their booking on QR's social media page; just to, ya know, make sure they've drawn special attention to their booking.
as for Ben: don't be too hard on him. he has 2 mouths to feed and keep in constant motion worldwide at 5* luxury. those affiliate links aren't gonna click themselves...

People can be such idiots on Social Media. Plenty of serious reasons not to do that with any booking.

It's not an error. Read their twitter.

As of an hour ago, QR replied to someone on Twitter that there are other surprises pending...this should be interesting.
Couldn't get dates to work for Europe with this initial promo; hopefully, there are more tickets/origins being released.
