QR business - 1091eur Belgrade to China, many dates
Great deal to China with number 1 airline! Shanghai, Guangzhou... no minimum days... excellent availability!
With new promotion - 4x more miles in premium cabin and at least 100% more Qpoints - this is a such an amazing deal! Very tempting...
Beg-Doh - a320, but excellent product with flat bad...
Doh-Pvg - 777-300

That's certainly a good deal, but just out of curiosity, has anyone flown QR since Qatar was effectively "blacklisted" for its ostensible support of Iran? I know this particular routing is unlikely to be problematic, but I'm wondering if US and UK citizens in particular might run into trouble upon their return (e.g. if they have a Qatari passport stamp from a Doha stopover).
Also, FWIW, I experienced a rather significant hassle the last time I flew QR back in January, before the laptop ban started: not only did they refuse to allow me to board my DOH-LAX flight with a broken laptop -- I spilled water on it, rendering it impossible to even turn on -- they wouldn't even let me check it as luggage! Even worse, it took a full month to get it sent back to me in the US! (plus I had to drive 150 miles to the nearest airport where QR had direct flights to pick it up) I can understand not allowing it as a carry-on, but refusing to check it and not returning it for a month was one of the most, if not the most, exasperating problems I've had over 30+ years of fairly regular int'l travel and untold millions of flight miles (I didn't start counting until 15 years in).
