  I booked my one this morning from the 13th to the 20th of April from Oslo to Bkk from gotogate and the earliest date I found then was from the 12th of April onwards. Now I can see the same 600£ from as early as the 7th of February. I would have preferred to go earlier, shame…it’s done now. Also, my one has 8h stopover outbound and 2h inbound. I have found better options with only 1h layover outbound and 2h inbound. There are a lot of flights available now from February onwards. They must have loaded them later in the morning or this afternoon as I couldn’t see any this morning. Hope this help someone who hasn’t booked yet!

  so tempted! does anyone know if these cheap gotogate tickets are eligible for the FREE Transit accommodation service at DOH. t&c’s are very vague http://www.qatarairways.com/global/en/transit-accommodation.page

    Am trying to find out the same, but on the GTG site it states you have to pay for overnight accommodation and transfers! Don’t know if that excludes the QR deal, but am away ATM so can’t. check it out. Am about to book HKT from CPH, but am almost afraid to risk that site, but prices v tempting.

      They are pricing around the Gotogate level at Expedia’s Norwegian site Expedia.no (actually a bit cheaper) plus there is no CC fee, which adds some legitimacy with these fares. Of course you should use a fee free CC to avoid currency conversion fees.

          E.g. OSL-BKK 17-24 May: 7563 NOK = ~ £596 Business class. 787 and A380.
          Also less than £650 to Singapore. Prices are a little higher from AMS, ARN and CPH in some cases.

          We found CPH HKT on expedia.no for approx £775, 6h 50 layover in biz lounge in Doha, on way bk, so can cope with that. We will hop bk to KL tho for a short trip up country there by train or VIP bus.

          James67 must pick your brain on that one please, if you are around.

          In Bali ATM with Jakarta going mad, but seems calm on the this island. Used our 241 to HKG to get here in F. But at these prices around now, it’s such hard work to continue collecting avios, but useful to have in reserve.

  Check ARL too
  Prices went up and down yesterday, but I eventually got 5 x ARL-DPS return for around £950 each, with an overnight in DOH on the outbound.
  Do I get a free transit hotel with I bucket?

    Hi Max, where did you buy such fantastic tickets, on gotogate.com or Qatar’s web site?
    Have a great time.

    Best Wishes

  I’m so tempted right now to book the really expensive holiday to Australia and new Zealand I was planning for a few years’ time. It’d cost about £800 more just booking OSL-SYD on Qatar than saving up lots of Avios, getting an upgrade voucher from the Lloyds card, and miraculously finding availability LHR-SYD. Normally that much money would be a deal breaker for me, but I’ve just finished paying my student loan off and moved to a chaper mortgage deal so I do actually have a bit more money each month….

    Mart, is that even cheaper than expedia.no? Did you look at that site at all?

    • mart says:

      15 Jan15 January 15:42

      it was £25 per person more expensive on my dates ,in the future I will check thanks

  I’ve chosen the Economy version of QR mega prices, £239 rt OSL-BKK, with 1 h transit time in DOH eac way. Fantastic! Ca’t be bothered to pay extra for Business, at the end the plane goes to the same destination. I wil book nicer hotels instead!
