Qatar Airways schedules Boeing 787 aircraft for flights between Norway and Doha. While they have a modern and contemporary business class, these planes do not feature Qsuites. If you travel with a short layover in Doha, flights to Hong Kong are Boeing 777 services. Not all of these planes are equipped with Qsuites, and Qatar Airways does not advertise them during the booking process, either.

Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?

More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:

Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.

If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.

This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.

Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.

This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

Miles & Points

Tickets are issued in booking class P. This gives you a nice bonus with most Oneworld frequent flyer programs, even without tier bonuses:

This offer is most attractive for people hunting Oneworld Sapphire tier, which gives nice perks like free hold luggage and lounge access across the entire Oneworld alliance. You need 600 tier points in British Airways Executive Club to reach that status – and can earn 560 of them with these flights. All you need to add are 40 tier points and four flight segments on either Iberia or BA.

Information & Tips for Hong Kong

Hong Kong is known for its skyline, Victoria Peak, harbour views, and a mix of modern and traditional sights like temples and street markets. The local currency is the Hong Kong dollar (HKD), and credit cards are widely accepted, though cash is still useful in smaller shops and markets. Prices are relatively high compared to much of Asia, especially for accommodation and dining. The weather is hot and humid in summer, with a cooler, more pleasant season from October to March. Typhoons can occur between June and October.
