How much time should I reserve for the Premium Terminal? The flight is around noon, so I can either linger in the hotel or in the PT.
Limoservice between DOH and hotel is only provided by QR as part of STPC. And as you are doing an voluntary stopover you will be on your own.

And there will also not be any limo for you as part of the groundservice in DOH. Transfer from the arriving KWI aircraft to thw arrival terminal will be on a dedicated F-bus. And on departure it will also be a F-bus from Premium Terminal to the aircraft.

J Seat Assignments Disappeared!

Will be traveling from HAN-EZE in 5 days and our seat assignments, which we made at booking, have disappeared on QR.com! When I try to re-Select a seat, it shows that our original seats are still taken.

The flights are quite full, and they are no empty pairs of seats available.

Should I worry, or is this a bug?

Cant be sure your circumstances are the same, but a similar thing happened to me on my last Qatar booking. Seat allocation remained in the main page of Manage My booking, but when you click on seat selection to change/look at the seats you're shown as unseated but the seats you originally want show as taken (by me, as it turned out at the airport). You also cant select any other seats.

I’ve read you can book Qatar flights now with Avios, but looking under ba.com no Qatar flights come up, is there another method I should be trying? Thanks.

Hello everyone

Planning to do DEL-ZUR-STO-DEL with QR in July. My mom/dad will be traveling in Business class, where as two of us will be economy, on the same flight.

Wondering if QR will allow us to use the premium terminal during our stopover at DOH, being with business class family members.

Anybody has had similar experience before? what do you guys think?

Earning Qpoints at partners

I recently had a stay at a One & Only hotel, qualifying for the triple points promo.

Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get the points credited to my account? My checkout was about 2 weeks ago.

Is it too late for somebody to claim miles for Qatar flights -outbound Nov 28th, returned Feb 18th?

Should the person create a Qmiles account now and claim qmiles? Can they instead create BA Exec accounts or American Airlines frequent flier number and claim those? They are unlikely to make international trips in the near future and would like to use miles for economy travel between Canada and the US if possible.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Did a search but couldn't find answer. Apologies if I missed it.

Other than Starwood, are there other ways to convert points to Qmiles?

Also, is it possible to use Qmiles to upgrade? Looked for upgrades on the Qmiles site but couldn't find anything. Thanks.

I can not confirm your experience. I found lots of QR flights on BA homepage which could be booked with Avios. Unfortunately not on the days I needed.

It seems however that the BA award booking tool has a preference to show flights on BA if available. Also, QR does not offer business class on regional flights and it was my impression that the BA award booking tool may have a problem with a mix off longhaul business class and regional first.

Will I accumulate miles for Priviledge Club when flying Iberia Regional Air Nostrum? I cannot find it on the QA calculator, while the One World website mentions that all benefits from flying Iberia also are true for this airline.

Flying LHR-DOH in Y today. I was a little surprised to be denied fast track security today at LHR T4 - I thought this was a OW Emerald benefit. Have I missed something?

Appreciate the links. Qmiles site didn't seem to be clear on how upgrades work. There is a blurb but it's quite vague. Any insight on how upgrades actually work? Possible to see availability on KVS or EF?

Also, additional reading suggests Starwood is only way to transfer in. Is that right?

Thanks for the help.

We are flying later in the year MUC-DOH-BKK-DOH-MUC and

Many thanks
