Yes.

Are you familiar with space patterns? More availability close in?

Not so familiar but play around with it sometimes. This is not bad. When I was looking for F on the DOH-BKK route I saw decent amount of availability while the LHR route didn't appear available to me neither for short or longer term.

I think QR only offers F and J passengers rides to/from the Terminal to/from the aircraft in DOH.

Anyone know if the A350 they will be flying to/from JFK will replace the 777 or will it be an additional flight?

AJK · « **Reply #109 on:** December 07, 2015, 11:53:38 AM »

Additional.

Additional.

I guess I'll need to lookout for when they load that into the system so I can cut out JFK-BOS on my trip.

QR should show on AA, BA, and QF.

Not sure about QF but I have certainly never seen it on AA.

For a one-way ticket, CHM-JFK, QR is substantially less than the competition. Assuming I'm booking a paid reservation in J, am I better off booking via priceline or QR diretly for cancellation purposes. On the one hand, QR offers cancellation and refund for just $75. Will Priceline do the same in addition to the regular 11:00 pm next day cancellation ability?

Seems they charge $30 on top of the airline fees but it also seems that you can book through them and cancel through the airline directly (though that might be asking for trouble and you don't want to have to deal with Priceline's customer service).
