Qatar have confirmed the presence of a policy whereby if a customer booked a QSuites flight and subsequently gets an aircraft type swap can you request travel on an alternative flight, subject to availability, see post #2709 Previously this included change of routing, now it only includes changing the date on the same routing. QR issued tickets only!

Just another data point. I flew Qsuites again yesterday from IAD to DOH. I was told on the phone (QR Plat line) that J was completely sold out, even for revenue. At the airport, I showed up 3 hours before flight time and there were two seats available. Used Qmiles+ cash. Snagged a window seat. I am now convinced that I like this seat way better than the A350 seats.

As far as I know only the first 777 (A7-BED) that was retrofitted with QSuites didn't have wifi installed, all the following ones do.

As a follow up to my previous post, I did end up going to DOH and tried the QSuite. Picked a rear-facing window. It's a fantastic seat, but I did find it a little claustrophobic and can see where others are coming from when saying so. Total privacy comes at the price of losing the sense of airy spaciousness on other aircrafts. I love the older QR 777s (particularly for sleeping, as legs are not constricted into a hole). I'd say that I liked it very much but did not love it. Nevertheless, it is yet another excellent product by QR. The only seats that I wholeheartedly dislike are the ones on their A330 fleet.

Interesting to note some differences on the QSuites-equipped planes. As I reported in another thread, wifi connectivity was free, unlimited and unusually fast. Also, there are some small touches like the snack platter and the little faux decorative candle used for dinner service.
