Hi there, I am on the QR830 on June 2nd and on QR831 back on June 9th. My Flights App is still showing me as on an A380 as is the QR site. Strangely though when I look to make a new booking on these same dates even economy is not available which is troubling....

IrishStephen as has been pointed out earlier in this thread QR are in the process of loading the summer schedule at the moment and the information may be incorrect at the moment.
impeymac just states May and June, not when in those months the change will take place.

I do not quite understand the above, I am booked in QR 836 at the end of January and it is operated by A380, according to my booking/QR website, and in the above post is says that it changes from B777 to A380.
This change was May last year or it will be next May? If it is next May, when is being changed from A380 to B777?
Thanks for clarifying it!

Thanks for the clarification. I guess keeping an eye on things for the next few weeks and holding off on booking the connnecting flight would be a good idea.

LOL. Given the title of the thread I didn't see the need to add the year, but I'm happy to confirm I'm talking about May/June 2017. Earlier in this thread it was stated some changes were coming in March, start of the new QR summer timetable. I don't know exactly when the changes I posted come into effect or which specific days &/or dates, only that they effect my travel in (mid) May & (early) June.
Hope that clarifies!

My flight did indeed change to an 777 with business only but QR after very long phone calls moved me to the early morning A380 flight.

Booked my flight out of CAI today and noticed that DOH-CAI on Apr,26th is scheduled to be operated by A350. Is it something that really happens from time to time? Or just wrongly submitted info? Tried to find a pattern on days of week / time and miserably failed. A few days here and there where it says A350 on that route.

That's strange as I was told on the phone also the Dreamliner was on the route but the op couldn't find it a second time. It would be nice to see A350 on the route.

Training is what I also thought of. Could it be possible that it goes about new A350-1000, which is rumoured to be delivered to QR in March?
