if you cancel with Qatar good luck ever getting you money back or credit. I used them for years and rescheduled flights MANY times with no issue, just had to pay the fare difference if any. Tried to cancel the last time and still haven't gotten credit back. When you call they say they forwarded it to the cancelation department, which of course you can't talk to and they have no access to the status. They tell you that you will receive an email in a couple of weeks. After a month I call again, they said the record showed that I didn't want to cancel, so we start the process over. I called about 5 different times over several months and there was either some excuse as to why I didn't receive the email 2 weeks later. I'm 100% convinced they give you the runaround on purpose so people just eventually give up.
