That'll be this one:

Unsure what the seats are called, but similar seats are found in some A320 and A332/333. Somewhat slim fit seats, but if you travel as a couple they arent bad.

You get a duvet and large pillow. The footwells in the first row are large as I recall. I don't recall pjs. Las up front is small.
You will likely get a bus at DOH -- the area where they park the A319s seem to be in another country.

Yep. Frankly, that winter 319 is not great but it is fully flat. The summer 359 is, needless to say, vastly preferable.

We flew BEG - DOH on this type of plane on 20 Dec. 2-2 configuration but in no way could those seats recline to fully flat - confirmed by the cabin crew. It was a daytime flight and the cabin service was excellent so we weren't bothered enough for a DYKWIA moment.

BEG operates with a 321 not a 319. The 321s have recliners in J which are completely different to the full flat sleepers on the 319.

Yanshuf BEG-DOH 20 December was a regional A320 with recliner seats.
There was a change of aircraft 21 December to A321 with recliner seats.
From 20 November to 20 December only five of the A320 flights had flat seats whilst the remainder were the regional version with recliners.

Thanks to both. On our e-ticket pdf and also on Qatar's manage my booking, it states that the aircraft is/was an A319. So clearly we ended up with a regional A320 that we weren't expecting.

Also, I think you you fall afoul of FT-QR rule 1: never, ever book anything QR for specific seat of feature onboard, QR is known to do unannounced aircraft swaps more often than most people swap socks. Even people paying exra for QSuite has had problems getting anything from QR with last minute subs for 2-2-2 seating.
