I'm flying to Goa with Qatar in March and im a member of their privilege club. What I was wondering was if a book a package holiday with a company this year who use Qatar airlines, can I still benefit from collecting the points and any increased luggage allowance? or is that purely for booking direct
Thanks guys
Who's the package tour company, I'm interested !
We have our second flight coming up soon and we have had confirmation that as we are now Burgundy members we get the extra 10kg luggage allowance which is handy. To maintain it though we need to keep going with them.
cheers Dave
Yes, you'll be able to collect your points regardless of who you've booked with. If you've booked through an agent, you may not get all the points / miles as it'll likely be on a discounted ticket, but you'll still get member benefits. Just show your card / quote your membership number when you check-in as you normally would.

Thanks guys much appriciated. Dave I was looking at Sri lanka with mercury direct. They use emirates As well as Qatar. However I will still price up flights and accomodation to DIY as well
Prices for next winter to India with Qatar are a lot dearer than we paid this year... over £200 more each ticket. We are thinking maybe Thailand next year with Qatar, might even be cheaper flying there than Goa !!!

Correct ! Make sure you take the credit card you paid for the tickets with too as it's required as ID.
You'll have an e-ticket so you just need to take your passport and booking reference (as quoted on email confirmations) with you. Most airlines operate e-tickets these days. Details are on Qatars website.

Thanks for any help
Also does anyone know the luggage allowance with Qatar to Goa
I would give them a ring to make sure about the credit card situation.If you are changing a name but not the credit card, it should have the same number so I can't see a problem.
The luggage allowance is on your e mail. Booked direct with Qatar it's 20kg per person although if you book through some travel agents ( Southall for example) you apparently get 30kg which seems unfair but that is the way it is !
I would join their priviledge club to log up Qatar air miles and get points towards an extra 10kg luggage allowance on your next flight if it's within a 12 month period.
Can i just say i flew with QATAR airways in nov and i took my credit card but they never asked me for for it..
Does anyone know which lounge Qatar use at T2 manchester Airport?
On the credit card i booked and payed cash for my sons ticket here in Qatar for Man/Doha/Man and all he had to show was his passport.
We flew economy and the food was not as good as other airlines also the times they came around offering water/juice was less than others.
The seats not as good either when person in front reclined it really invaded your space.
The short transfer time at Doha of 35 minutes went very smoothly and the on line check in worked well.
Can you remember which seat numbers you were in and the flight number,if you pm it to me i will pass it on to a friend in customer relations,I fly to Manchester on Thursday AM with Qatar but upfront.I am supprised to read your complaints as Qatar normally have good customer relations.
Just a couple of questions if anyone can help before i go in the morning.
I understand that i have to go to the fast bag drop point in manchester and take my confirmation email along with my credit card and other travel info to get a boarding pass.
My second flight from doha to goa i have a boarding pass for this so what do i do at doha when i get off the plane do i just go to the gate ?(via duty free) if anyone can help please
Hi, When you get to Doha you have to go through a scanner which you queue for,if your flight is a quick transit you get through quicker, then you are in duty free and wait for your gate to be announced then you go through.It is really easy just follow the crowd!
Oh, and don't break the inflight entertainment, I might be sitting in that seat of Friday !!!!!
cheers babes im stressed again lol ive just had to repack my case as it was overweight ive thrown out half my books and other non essentials like 5 ton of toiletries lol
