While I just got a change from 777 to 380 in May.

Is there any proactive notification of plane changes or just need to keep an eye on my booking?

Traveller999 you are correct that QR are still loading the Summer schedules. As of last night, of those destinations I checked, QRcargo showed no flights after 25 March.
As to the Winter schedule which starts 28 October ANY aircraft allocation can change, and many probably will, before the winter timetable is loaded. Until then any schedule after 27 October is guesswork based on the schedulers experience and aircraft maintenance schedules.

MyFlights was the best way. Alas, the service is terminating on the 31st December.

"Alas" barely starts to summarise how many of us feel about it indeed. It is really sad to see such a fabulous tool as My Flights end...

My Flight from Doha to Bangkok (QR830) on Saturday, 24. March is still shown with an A380. Only the Flight-Time changed a little bit (now earlier and longer Flight-Time).

Kölner your flight is on the last day of the Winter schedule. It is 25th.March that the Summer schedule starts. Most changes will be made with the schedule change.
QR are constantly changing flight times to suit weather patterns, winds and political restrictions. These changes are very small, usually a few minutes, and are usually of no real consequence.
