Quick thoughts

Just like all Qatar Airways discount promotions, the amount that you can save varies from route to route and by the cabin being booked, but the discounts are there and some of the savings can be worthwhile.

I haven’t had the opportunity to check just how good or bad this deal is or if there are any particularly amazing fares out there, but because the promotion talks about discounts of “up to 15%”, don’t assume that all routes will offer the same discount – you’ll probably have to dig around to find the very best deals.

Make sure you get an even better deal out of whatever trips you book by using a credit card that gives you a good return on your travel spending and, preferably, one that also comes with good travel protections (just in case!)

Make sure you get the best deal out of whatever fare you book by using a credit card that gives you a good return on your travel spending and, preferably, one that also comes with good travel protections.

The Platinum Card® from American Express offers 5 points/dollar on up to $500,000 of spending made directly with airlines or flights booked through Amex Travel (1 point/dollar thereafter – terms apply) and the Chase Sapphire Reserve® earns a very respectful 3 points/dollar for just about all travel spending, so with both of these cards offering excellent trip delay, interruption, and cancellation protections, they would be my go-to choices for booking flights in this sale

I should also add that the American Express® Green Card earns 3 points/dollar for just about all travel spending, but because it doesn’t offer the same level of protection as the Platinum Card or the Sapphire Reserve, I don’t think it’s as good an option as the more premium cards.

Note: All information about the American Express® Green Card has been collected independently by Traveling For Miles. The American Express® Green Card is not currently available through Traveling For Miles.

Bottom line

Select Qatar Airways Business Class bookings made by 12 October 2024 for departures from the Americas will give customers a saving of up to 15%. Most Qatar Airways destinations in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia appear to be included in this promotion (Doha and Cape Town are two of the destinations that don’t appear to be included), so there should be quite a bit scope for readers to find a decent deal.

Let us know in the comments if you find any particularly good fares.
