Exactly what I wanted. One question, I'm planning to have a day trip in Doha on the way back, heard that Qatar air would organize visa, hotel, etc, what's the conditions and how to do it? Thanks

It will probably be EQD = Mileage Flown x Fare Class Percentage. Similar to Delta. Lucky did a post on this today.

Let's say Discounted Business on Qatar gets you 25-30% EQD for mileage flown, then this itininerary could put you at almost half way through the ExP EQD requirements. Not bad if you ask me.

Im gonna stack this with the PEN YVR deal. That will meet Eqd. Need it for 2017 though and the fare is slightly higher.

The promo says good for travel until 15th December 2016

Since EQD isn't factored in until next year, it doesn't affect this deal.

Are you guys really getting 2650 AI for two passengers? Or is it each? Am not able to get anything cheaper than 26xx per person... I may be doing something wrong.

Availability seems to come and go. I've had it disappear on me twice so far, and prices have about doubled during those times. Waiting for it to come back right now, actually.

Using Google Flights to search, FYI. Availability is December 7-15 for CMB-BOS and looks like December 27-January 7 BOS-CMB, or something like that.

Hmmm... searching on qatarairways.com/lk (as suggested by the promo page) means I get promo pricing pretty consistently.

However, your search definitely has to be a multiple of two. Earlier, I could sometimes get it to price 3 passengers at the promo price, but that seems to be fixed now. It's actually cheaper to buy tickets for four people than for three for my itin. That's crazy!!!

Just booked 2 tickets, 5 Nov out, 11 Nov back for a quick one week trip at the USA east coast.

You will need to search for 2 and the price shown is the total for 2 pax.

Fare condition seems not bad, $75 to change and $150 to cancel.

Heard that there is a mini cabin in the J class on A350, does any one know which row? Currently I'm booked on row 2 all the way.

Thanks to OP. Just booked 2 friends on this. They are so excited. It's a shame it is fly by 15 Dec, we would have booked 3x2 for January.
