Qatar's partner chart, rebuilt from 2026 bookings (Qatar doesn't publish it). Distances shown are straight-line airport-to-airport; Qatar prices the total distance actually flown, so a connection can move an itinerary into a higher band. Only American, Alaska, Iberia and Finnair nonstops are shown. British Airways and JetBlue price differently, and some routes are seasonal.

Good to know

How to find seats

  1. 1 Search American ORD to LHR first. It's the only Central nonstop in the 62,000 band.
  2. 2 From Dallas, look at American, Iberia or Finnair nonstops at 77,250. Houston and Denver have no nonstop on these partners, and a connection adds miles.
  3. 3 For British Airways flights, price the same seat on ba.com too. Avios move between Qatar and BA 1:1, instantly and for free.
  4. 4 Transfer points only once you see the seat.

Questions people ask

Why is Chicago cheaper than Dallas?

ORD to LHR is 3,953 miles (62,000 band). DFW to LHR is 4,750 miles (77,250 band). Same airline, same cabin, 15,250 Avios apart.

Why isn't British Airways at the chart price?

BA-operated awards through Qatar sometimes price above the generic partner chart. Check both programs before you book.

I have Chase points. Can I use this?

Yes. Transfer Chase to British Airways Avios 1:1, then combine them into Qatar Avios 1:1 in the Qatar account. Link the two accounts first.
