The deal is NOT gone.

You need to specify routing codes in the advanced control field at ITA Matrix.
Type DOH CMB for outbound and CMB DOH for homebound.
Please read the post #5 in this thread.

Thanks, I did manage to get the Matrix to find the fare, but I couldn't book it at that price on on the SriLankan website. I'll give it another try.

Update: with a little more experimentation I have now managed to make a booking (to HKG in Aug) on the UL website for €1,166.87. Thanks for all your help.

Thank you for this fare and the interesting routing. We booked flights to HKG for next year and will have stopovers in CMB and DOH on the way back to LCA.

We will get 640TP for 1216 Euro.

Trying to book LCA-HKG return departing 6 Oct, returning 21 Dec. Matrix not showing anything - is the key to check Expertflyer for I class availability first?

It seems, that the fight LCA-DOH is booked through first week in october. The date we booked in 2019 is also not available any more. 29 or 30 SEPT or 10 OCT works.

And on the 21st DEC, there is no UL flight HKG-CMB. 20 or 22 DEC works.

Does anyone know if this is down to QR tightening up, or UL?

Edil: sad to see them go too, I saw lots
of Asia and drank great tea thanks to these fares.

I have limited visibility over UL but my view is that QR is making its business class less affordable (for many special offer emails I got I have not seen any business class sale fares for a long time already (ex MOW). Maybe this is linked to the losses they announced.

Also QR updated own fares from my region too, increasing SE Asia price tags (SGN and SEL used to be the cheapest for non-sale fares, including buy business fly first [ie D class] for a long time).
