@qatarairways A quick update for anyone struggling with flights: Qatar has now arranged an Etihad flight for us to depart Thailand tomorrow via Abu Dhabi.

Another day, another “operations remain temporarily suspended” update — now into day 4 with Qatari airspace still closed and no end in sight. We are PAYING CUSTOMERS (many Privilege Club Gold/Platinum) who trusted the “World’s Best Airline” — yet you keep shutting everything down without real solutions. Why aren’t you: - Rerouting us on partner/oneworld airlines or ANY available carriers bypassing Doha? - Opening more rebooking options beyond “change within 14 days” or partial refunds that barely help? - Arranging charter flights, hotel vouchers, or meaningful compensation for people stranded worldwide? Other airlines reroute aggressively during crises — why does Qatar Airways just keep extending suspensions and telling us to wait for tomorrow’s update… again? Is passenger welfare secondary when airspace closes? We paid premium fares for reliability — not endless uncertainty. If you value your customers, stop the daily delays and START HELPING US NOW.

@qatarairways Finally starting to help!

@JBagwah @0xJaplet @terjeholden @qatarairways I’m still not connected believe they close at 6pm as well

@JoshAcklam @0xJaplet @terjeholden @qatarairways It must have taken me at least 30 mins of non stop engaged, to the one call that got connected. I don't envy you at all. I'm a lone traveller so it does help

@RobertGeneric @qatarairways That I am unsure of! I have put everything on my credit card praying for my travel insurance to help out!

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways Do you still lose this much if you wait for them to cancel or if you cancel yourself? Wonder if you can claim off the credit card 🤔

@LizetteCil It’s disgusting how many scams there are right now with people struggling to get home who have families or are disabled! Disgusting

@JoshAcklam Please be vigilant!! I just had ‘Qatar airways’ customer support calling me to offer me a compensation! It was a scam! I realised that when the caller insisted that I download the World Remit app in my phone and to take me through the steps to ‘claim’ my compensation!

@KingaOdziemek @qatarairways I have done the same also, had nothing

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways They give you a Whatsapp communication number and I have been waiting for 30 hours… We’re in Cape Town and had to book a refundable flight with BA for the next week because Qatar wouldn’t rebook us. Times are tough but we feel left behind.

@RobertGeneric @qatarairways You lose around 2/3 it’s a joke!

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways They should enable free rebooking within a year for ALL flights within the next few months or a full no fee refund If I rebook with another airline then cancel with QATAR we lose big time This lack of movement means unlikely to use them in future #QatarAirways

@JBagwah @0xJaplet @terjeholden @qatarairways Thanks Sam, will call now

@0xJaplet @JoshAcklam @terjeholden @qatarairways I'm managing ok. I was lucky, booked BA on qatar flights. Qatar didn't help at all, but BA rerouted me via Paris to UK in Sunday so can't complain. If you call the qatar office in BKK it's always engaged.. just keep keep retrying and eventually yiu get through. Good luck 👍

@the_moooook That’s disgusting, Thai people are lovely and need every penny!

A tourist in Phuket dined and dashed after ordering the restaurant’s most expensive steak. He finished his meal, pretended to use the restroom, then slipped out the side and rode off on a bike.

@insideVet01 @qatarairways Agreed. Communication has been shocking

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways I told them, this is like any other emergency situation so they have to act in emergency manner also

@ian20002 @ChloeArnolrmxu @qatarairways They’ve opened Dubai? Just recently has a missile attack on the US base?

@ChloeArnolrmxu @JoshAcklam @qatarairways Lol good luck avoiding the missiles and drones if they open Qatar airspace.

@maxitrol_404 @qatarairways What you mean pay premium? We just booked the cheapest airline to get us to Thailand

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways next time dont pay premium

@MartinODowgqhw @qatarairways That’s the only thing I am concerned about, no communication at all apart from the daily post on here!

@ChloeArnolrmxu @qatarairways In regards to opening Doha?

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways I’m in the same position as you but I am stuck in Australia but if this makes you feel any better they are not updating us tomorrow as they are trying to open it.

@scythe_lily @guidi007 @qatarairways Which airline is this with?

@guidi007 @JoshAcklam @qatarairways There's many routes to and from Philippines, I'm sure you can find something

@terjeholden @qatarairways Would love to but we are stuck in Thailand with no available airlines, everything is fully booked.

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways Drive to Dubai or Ryadh?

@17APG @qatarairways Same boat as me, we are currently stuck in Thailand along with many others with no updates at all!

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways I am the same. Silver member and no Comms from them. I have messaged them and support and heard absolutely nothing back.

@brandonironaus @qatarairways Agreed, just strange Dubai and Abu Dhabi now letting flights go

@JoshAcklam @qatarairways risk of getting shot down not ideal either.
