In late 2020, Qatar Airways introduced “basic” business class fares. Less than a year later, the carrier will be making changes to its business class fare classes once again. These changes are a mixed bag — there are some positive adjustments, but also some very negative changes when it comes to mileage earning.

Let’s talk about the differences (below you can find a chart comparing all the fare classes).

Note that these fare classes are only for revenue tickets — nothing is changing with award tickets, which continue to have full privileges.
