I booked China eastern for departure day before my original booking with Qatar airways. Got to LHR early and went to the Qatar desk. They transferred me with in 5 minutes to a BA flight via Hong Kong departing 4 hours before my China eastern flight left. The BA flight was much better as earlier and only one hour stop in Hong Kong. I lost the China eastern flight money but decided was worth covering my options.
Before that Qatar airways had emailed me a ticket on BA direct from Gatwick for the following day but I had plans in Bangkok that meant I had to get there.

My flight to Dubai was cancelled.... they offered option to refund or to rebook.
I chose to rebook another flight to Sydney in September.
Did not need to top up.... instead they upgraded me to business class for that trip.

Do a search on facebook for Qatar airways. There are facebook groups with people getting refunds not complete refunds. The Qatar airways website says: As a continuing measure, please be reminded that if you have a confirmed booking with a travel date between 28 February and 28 March 2026, you are eligible for: Complimentary date change to a new travel date up to 30 April 2026 when rebooking on flights operated by Qatar Airways, or

I believe they deduct the tax and fuel part of the ticket? If that's correct, it's very unfair, as they haven't used the fuel or paid tax
Doug ********
Stu Brewsterif that's true you won't get much back as the majority of the prices is various high taxes

Stu Brewsterit says a full refund of the unused part of the ticket the refund should be in full . They introduced a special refund reschedule special waiver

I am due to fly on the 13th of April. On the app they are currently offering full refunds, or free date changes, on bookings up to the 22nd of March. They will probably adjust this date as the shutdown continues. I learnt my lesson during covid, and always try to book direct with the airline. It’s a lot better service when things go wrong.

Nigel Mills British Airways? Cancelled my flight to London once and put me on a later flight. Arrived London too late for BA Bangkok connection and had to pay for hotel myself. Got put on next days flight but lost pre booked seat. No compensation as they sited weather as the problem. Might have been for the flight destined to come to Aberdeen but the weather there was perfect! Could have put me on a later flight that would have made the connection but obviously I don’t suck cock!
