We can now only expect that some fat fingered employees distracted by the movie filled in some special promotion ;-)

Its QR at their best, or maybe I should say at their worst?
Its amazing that an airline with such an inferior ground service / back office / may I say CR management? does have such a great inflight service and inflight experience ...

IMHO its because AAB checks everything, from aircraft carpet quality to onboard service, but never has an occasion to check his own Customer Service.

very silent on FB though. This is what I've found on Twitter page:
Our brand new campaign#LikeNeverBefore is not just a film.
It is an experience that shows how travelling with#QatarAirways
urns the familiar into something truly magical.
Huh?

Personally, I think the film was a clever marketing move.
It's different to the majority of airline adverts, and it's also quite memorable for concept - albeit less so that it's QR and not Mary Poppins!
The disappointment on the forum is clearly visible, but that is because many expected a Sale; to the point that certain posts made out they were entitled to one! However, for the general traveller, it's clever.
A difference in approach should be commended, and perhaps the theme will run through the year - thus leading to certain Sales in the near future.

M,
Sales are nice and all, but the reason I got frustrated with this is not that it wasn't a sale. My job pretty much dictates when I go where, and if that coincides with a sale I'm all OK with that. What gets to me is that when they have fairly well known glaring issues with customer service, and decide to put the money into marketing then either they are not listening, not wanting to listen or disregarding what a rather large following in here frequently is frustrated over.
Hyping a tiny movie to tell me all is rosey and well into socks-being-smoked-territory is not how someone that I spend a non-trivial amount of change on each year connects with me when all I want then to understand and acknlowdge is: you have issues, deal with them. Show me that my input has meaning.

That being said, the number with issues related to their journeys and on-ground product, has severely reduced over the past 12 months - so progress is being made.
Where there are clearly problems though, are within the QRPC programme; spearheaded by the sudden devaluation from last year.
However, we have a thread for that, and those matters can be discussed within it - opposed to here.
