Qatar QSuites Business Class Award Space in 2025

Qatar QSuites Business Class Award Space to the Maldives

There's Qatar Qsuites Business Class Award Space to the Middle East and the Maldives for May 2025. While not our favorite business class (we prefer Japan Airlines SkySuite Business Class 777-300ER window seats, thanks to the three windows, privacy, and comfortable mattress pad), Qatar Qsuites has a good hard product, even if service and catering has been inconsistent on our multiple flights. Here's one of our several Qatar QSuites Business Class video reviews:

There are several May 2025 dates with 2 award seats from/to Atlanta ATL, Boston BOS, Chicago ORD, Dallas DFW, Houston IAH, Los Angeles LAX, Miami MIA, Montreal YUL, New York JFK, San Francisco SFO, Seattle SEA and Washington, DC IAD.

There's also much more limited availability January-April 2025. For example, here are two award seats from Dallas DFW in February:

Which Miles and Points to Book Qatar QSuites Award Space

This award space is only available with Avios programs (Qatar Privilege Club, British Airways Avios, Iberia Plus, etc.) and JetBlue TrueBlue; currently it's not available with American AAdvantage miles, and Alaska, when it has the space, is charging over 200K miles. It's 70,000 Avios on nonstop U.S. to Doha flights, while JetBlue charges 70,000 TrueBlue miles from the Northeast U.S. and 80,000 from other U.S. cities. Note that it will be additional miles and points to get from Doha DOH to the Maldives MLE: 70,000 Avios for Qatar Business Class, 105,000 Avios for Qatar First Class, or 35,000 Avios for Qatar Economy.

Where to Stay in Doha

If stopping in Doha with enough time to see sights, our recommendation for a luxury hotel stay is the Mandarin Oriental Doha. Get a sense for the hotel with our Mandarin Oriental Doha video review:

Where to Stay in the Maldives

If you're able to secure space January-early April 2025, that's the dry season, with a greater chance of sunny days. May tends to be a transitional month, so there's a higher chance of showers and partly cloudy skies, although even with that chance, the Maldives is still an incredible destination. Consider staying at a larger resort and in a nicer villa, however, so that there are things to do even if it rains.

We've stayed at eight different luxury resorts in the Maldives, and our clients have stayed at many others. Our top recommendations are Cheval Blanc Randheli; Velaa Private Island; and the Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru, all of which we can reserve with Virtuoso or preferred partner benefits.
