Double Qpoints - change dates, rerouting

I bought a return ticket from Europe to Hong Kong during double Qpoints promotion. I would want to change my return date or if possible, re-route my flight departing from different asian city. Will my earning of double Qpoints be anyhow affected by these changes? I didn’t find any information in terms and conditions. At the moment I am missing 117 Qpoints for my QR platinum renewal and for this flight I should get 120 Qpoints (double amount). It is the last chance for me to get any Qpoints before my March status renewal.

As long as your travel date still falls within the offer dates and as long as your new destination wasn't somehow excluded in the offer T's & C's then you will get the double Qpoints.

Was this the promo that ran in September last year? There was some ambiguity in the offer and I was actually able to get 3x QPoints (because they had promised Bonus Double QPoints where Bonus was defined as additional to what would normally be awarded) - but it depends on the specific offer code.

Yes, it was the September promo but I got only double Qpoints for my first trip from BEG to HKG. Plus I got double Qmiles.

im not quiet sure if this works? if u rebook and the old flight may gets canceled, u will get a new booking at current date and if the promo is not avaialable anymore (what i assume) u wont get the double qpoints either! i would striongly recommend to check with QRPC how this will turn out.
although i know its a pain to deal with them, but worth checking ...

I will definitely ask QRPC before making any changes but considering my previous experiences with them, I am not sure if I can 100% trust the information they provide.

I got Double QMiles as well (I think that was there by default on the offer I got) and only got Double QMiles initially, but was able to get the adjustment after chasing it with QRPC
It helped that I had a clarification from QRPC prior to the booking to hold them to.

Make sure to get it in writing on your account, not just over the phone - then you have something to hold them to.

Hi guys,

I came back yesterday from a rescheduled flight and the initial booking was done with the 3 Qpoints offer (1909PC079). I do confirm the promo got applied w/o any actions from my side. I was very skeptical but pretty happy it worked smoothly!

My offer was 1909PC078 which was originally 2xQmiles and I could extra choose between 3xQmiles or 2xQpoints or 10% discount.
i sent an email to QRPC so I am waiting for their reply now. Thanks for all the replies.

I did the exact same routing, but switched the outbound to BEG-CAN - I was able to do that because we lost the Qsuites on the original booking. Also changed the dates. Double miles and points posted immediately, no issues whatsoever. A colleague flew the original routing on a different date, also posted normally.

did u change your flights while the offer was still available (within booking period - before 17.sep 2019)?

The 078 offer promises "Book online during the offer period and earn 2x bonus Qpoints across all cabins." and "Members will earn bonus Qpoints over the base Qpoints earned on Qatar Airways flights during the offer period.", so you ought to get 3x QPoints

QRPC will likely deny you this (happened with me as well) and it was only after I escalated the issue (wrote to [email protected] and also wrote to the CMB office and asked them to direct it to a supervisor... don't know which of them worked) that I got the correct QPoints credited. Good luck 🤞🏽
