TLDR : Answer Summary

When flying to the USA on Qatar Airways, you can opt for an antigen test instead of a PCR test, provided that the test is conducted within one day of your flight. However, it's advisable to check with the airline as there may be specific requirements when transiting through Doha.

Check with the airline. Since I assume you’ll be transiting through Doha they might require a PCR.

USA only requires antigen. But beware it has to be within 1 day. So the day before you fly and the day you fly.
