So, this evening's order confirmed as:
Boeing 787-9; (30 confirmed orders)
Boeing 777-300ER; (10 confirmed orders)
Boeing 737-MAX. (LOI for 60 frames)
A bit of a kick-in-the-teeth for the A320NEO line, given that Qatar was - at one stage - to be the launch customer of the type.
Looking forward to see the 789 and the 73M in Qatar colours.

Calling the shots is what you can do if a product is below spec or delivered late. PW and Airbus could be avoided this, or at least they could have had a stronger hand, if they hadn't been late and made simple errors. Rotor bow in this day and age? All these years of making cabins and can't make them to schedule?
I think that they're probably ordering the wrong aircraft though. A320neo will be the better aircraft, and the A350 is probably more popular with passengers.
