Can you still find Qatar business class award seats via Qantas?

It’s impossible to find Qatar seats anywhere when booking a RTW Oneworld seat. Whenever I put Doha into a request, the itinerary is rejected and I have to start again. It’s like Qatar Airways doesn’t exist. Any thoughts? It was easy booking Qatar when last I did this.

Two issues here:

  1. The Qantas website doesn’t permit starting with Doha as the origin because they can’t process bookings in their local currency. You can get around this by searching with the multi-city booking website and putting in a route like Sydney to Melbourne in the first leg and then the second leg your flight originating from Doha.
  2. Qatar has been playing favourites with its partners, preferring to make business availability open to Virgin Velocity members earlier than Qantas. What you will find is that at most 4 months ahead is what you can find on Qantas for Qatar seats.
