Cheap econ ticket - barely/almost enough miles for 1 return upgrade (4 segments).
Flex econ ticket - enough miles to 1 returned upgrade to business class.
But then again to add higher costs/ taxes, subject to availability I'm not sure it is worth it. However, it makes sense to get you to higher tiers and enjoy benefit recognition's across OW, if that's your thing.
But current offer is miles only..sigh..

Codeshares qualifying for the 10 segments for 100k / 150k / 200k QMiles ??
My bad. You are completely right those are for the return but as most of us fly further via DOH as a connecting airport the principle stays the same. Extra 100k miles for flying 10 segments (means 2.5-3 return flights) will give you:
Cheap econ ticket - barely/almost enough miles for 1 return upgrade (4 segments).
Flex econ ticket - enough miles to 1 returned upgrade to business class.

Regarding the additional bonus of flying 10 sectors for 150/200K miles, I just recieved this clarification from QR -
We wish to inform you that additional offer for our promotion 1903PC119 is applicable for commencing at least 10 flights eligible under the offer.
The flight duration for the offer is 01-Mar-19 to 31-May-19 and bookings created as per offer terms are only counted for eligibility in additional offer.
Upon browsing your account we have noticed that there is no eligible flight commenced and credited to your account yet as per the offer.
So you have to book and fly during this period to get the offer, at first I was thinking my flights I booked in Feb for my travel in April would count for the 10 flights but clearly I was mistaken!!

Thanks @dr HFH, I rechecked with them and clarified -
As per terms of the offer 1903PC119 terms and condition, you need to book and travel within the offer travel period 01-Mar-2019 to 31-May-2019.
The booking made outside the above mentioned date will not be considered under the above mentioned offer.
And then I went to the offers section and found the wording is to the same language. So now I am just trying to work out the logistics to plan 5 return doha and muscat trips!!

Qatar Airways is refusing to honour the offer saying I needed to book the flights by 31st March 2019, however I have clearly pointed out the Terms and Conditions as well as what was explained to me says otherwise they continue to refuse.
I have had around 12 emails back and forth with Qatar Airways, and then I tweeted them and was retweeted by an Al Jazeera journalist who shamed them for their way of trying to get out of honouring the offer and now they said they are looking into it. But it has been a really annoying and frustrating experience dealing with some very incompetent people.
It is still not resolved however I believe its moved beyond the Indian call centre now to somehow who hopefully has the authority to make a decision!

Similar language is also used "Book and fly a minimum of 10 sectors by 31 May 2019 and earn an additional 200k bonus Qmiles
I am still a few sectors short and was thinking of booking and flying them before 31 May 2019, but am concerned they (PC) will also say that as it is linked to the 5x/4x offer - this should also have been booked before 31 March 2019?
Do you have any more clarity/confirmation
Regards,
PS. Pity you not attending the Suhour
