DOH - COL legs changed to Oman Air
I bought a Qsuite ticket some months ago for IAD - COL. I was just checking my booking today and noticed that the DOH to Colombo leg has been switched to Oman Air instead of the Qatar I booked it on. The class is still Business so Im not that bothered, but I never got an email notification of the change like I normally would for any change whatsoever.
So a question: Has this happened to you as well on any connecting flight thru DOH recently?
PSA: Make sure you keep tabs on your bookings and watch out for this switcheroo.

The A330 seats are pretty good and you'll still get the QR food service too. I believe Oman Air J service is very similar to QRs generally in the sense the crew should be good.
You should be able to get a free change to another QSuite flight (if there is one) under their QSuite change policy as it was your seat that changed - assuming you booked through QR.

Update: Omar Air was awesome. Basically flies as a Qatar product with the same menus and meals etc. Even had a Qatar rep on board. Plus, call me crazy but their seat was way more comfortable then the seat of the Qsuite.
