I posted about this a while ago and when I received the E-mail today I tried to look for flights from LGW to SYD in December, returning in January. The outgoing flights appear to be from LGW but the returning flights all say LHR and National Express transfer to Gatwick - exactly as they did last time I looked! I have also commented on the FB page and await a response.
No answer on the "sale " fares so .....caveat emptor.

nearly impossible to book Y saver outside the prono code buckets and if you can find Q or N it's at a very high price
awful choice of equipment looking at November onwards on DOH BKK no 380 and choice of 777 ( space saving config lol)
787
and 340
add the removal of the premium lounge access it's not an attractive package
o checked EK for my November trip very clear fare buckets so the Y flex which I think is a similar bucket to QR saver but very clearly displayed mileage and upgrade details
and all 380 service which is very acceptable in Y as far as I'm aware nearly all DXB BKK is on the 380 except for one 777
and year round LGW service which is a non stop train service for me

Heads up to anyone flying QR331: check for cancellation!
Our QR331 DOH to LGW dept 15:40 this june has been cancelled. We've had to reroute to LHR. First time flying on QR so slightly disappointed. LGW is so much nearer to where we live than LHR.
The positive is that the LHR flight is currently scheduled to be an A350-1000 qsuites which will be a first for us. Fingers crossed it stays that way!
