Questions people ask
Why is Philippine Airlines 110,000 and not 154,500?
Qatar prices Philippine Airlines on its own chart. Flights of 6,501–8,000 miles are 110,000, and Manila to Seattle, San Francisco and LA (6,661 to 7,305 miles) all fall in that band.
Is the Doha price the same in this direction?
The 95,000 and 100,000 prices were seen on flights from the US. Qatar's through-pricing to Japan was the same both ways, so expect about the same, but check.
What's Flexi?
Qatar's own-flight award that opens up more seats when Standard is sold out. It costs exactly twice the Standard price.
My Avios are with British Airways or Iberia. Can I use them here?
Yes. Link the accounts and move Avios into Qatar 1:1, instantly and for free. Move only what you need once you've found the seat.
